High Lights
Theme #177 of Lens Artists Photo Challenge is celebrating. A moment during the day, seeing the light of the sun split. A moment of presence and focus, being quiet for a moment. Thinking of Nicolas Cramer.

Evidence of Autumn
The theme for this week’s Lens-artists Photo Challenge #176 is One image/one story. That theme matches the subject of my photo blog: What’s (in) the picture? Finding stories. Photo’s tell stories. My story (what made me click my shutter), and the story of the spectator.

The Heart of the Matter
The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #160 is ‘Your Inspiration’.
One of the biggest inspirations is nature and flowers. In times of Covid19 the back garden is a place to be.

Rain
The theme for his week Lens-artists challenge #150 is ‘Let’s go wild’.
The Netherlands does not really have original wild parts where nature still rules; we do have nature, but nature is being managed. We manage and maintain our dense populated country all over, to achieve efficiency (the post stamp like farm fields, outlined by straight canals from the sky, a view tourists seem to enjoy approaching Schiphol Airport etc) or benefits of scale and standardization. But not all can be controlled. One thing we have to adjust to and have no control over is the weather and the effects of climate change. Spring was very wet and had heavy showers. We can manage the extra water and rising sea levels, but the intensity of the rain is a more and more a given.

Last of the Tulips
The tulips gave us weeks of colorful joy this year, but in May a storm started to end their blooming period. The petals gone, the stems left behind. Derelict.
If you enjoy photography and want to play with words each month seeing if you can express the word in an image, visit Paula’s Lost in Translation blog. It is fun to do, but her photography is wonderful and inspiring as well. Well worth a visit and a follow.
