The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #122 is ‘The sun will come out tomorrow’.
The sun is always there, even when you do not see it. On this day it was out sparkling over the canal, high lighting a beautiful sky.

The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #115 is ‘Inspiration’.
The canal that runs through my village is always an inspiration. Each season has its new perspective. The image is a bit shaky, using the zoom on the iPhone.

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – April 2020
The theme for the weekly Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #95 is ‘All Wet’.
You might think seeing this photo ‘this is not all wet, is it?’ And indeed it is not. Some say God created the world and The Dutch created The Netherlands.The first is a question of belief and the latter is a question of opinion. The fact is that a big part of the low lands (Netherlands) are under sea level. This small canal is part of the waterworks that manages to keep Dutch feet dry. If we could not manage water this way you would be looking at the sea. So it is not all wet, it is managed wet and we prefer it that way.

Some say God created the world and The Dutch created The Netherlands.The first is a question of belief and the latter is a question of opinion. The fact is that a big part of the low lands (Netherlands) are under sea level. This canal is one of the waterworks that manages to keep Dutch feet dry. This canal is taking water from ‘polders’ back to the sea. If we could not manage water this way you would be looking at the sea, with the building on the left just above the sea level. So it is not all wet, it is managed wet and we prefer it that way.

The theme for Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #62 is ‘silhouettes’.
Instead of ‘hard’ silhouettes I find it sometimes more pleasing to show some details in the darker parts.

The weekly theme is ‘place in the world’. Where do you belong? Images of the place I live, my place(s) in the world. Number 4: the bridge over Hollands Diep for the high speed line. Bridges, dams and water locks are ‘art work’ in the jargon of the agency that maintains them, Rijkswaterstaat.

The weekly theme is ‘place in the world’. Where do you belong?
Images of the place I live, my place(s) in the world. Number 3: the Oortbridge and the canal.
Water is an essential, crucial and critical element of life in The Netherlands. Half of the country is below sea level so we need to manage water. Each day I pass the J.H. Oortbridge over the canal that leads from Warmond to Katwijk. The canal is – apart from being a means of transportation and recreation – used to dump excess sweet water into the sea at low tide. This week’s theme ‘place in the world’ associated with the name giver of this bridge is funny: Jan Hendrik Oort was a famous Dutch astronomer and a pioneer in exploring space outside our world.
