Family

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – July 2022

Lens Artists Photo Challenge #211 is ‘what is your groove’. Basically I enjoy looking around, up and down till something strikes me as interesting. And sometimes it shows right at your door step.

Watching Services

England, Peterborough A1 services – July 2022

Lens Artists Photo Challenge #211 is ‘what is your groove’. Basically I enjoy looking around, up and down till something strikes me as interesting. And being cheeky at times, like here while having a little pause on the road trip at a service station.

Spot the Pigeons

England, Southwell – July 2022

Lens Artists Photo Challenge #211 is ‘what is your groove’. Basically I enjoy looking around, up and down till something strikes me as interesting. Being in a lovely small English town, enjoying a lunch, seeing some pigeons on a nice old red bricked house.

Garden Party

England, Morton – July 2022

Lens Artists Photo Challenge #211 is ‘what is your groove’. Basically I enjoy looking around, up and down till something strikes me as interesting. Like kids playing with water, a dog who is mad of water and two adults testing a drone at a garden party.

Fly me to the Moon

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – July 2022

It must be a reflection or something else because the moon was not up at 11.30 am. Yet it seems to appear in this shot.

Railing

Over the edge

Mind the Barrier

France, Marck – July 2022

The views of the landscapes are taken from the car in the passenger seat. And sometimes that leads to seeing surprising objects in the front of the picture. LAPC #209 is surreal.

Between the lines

France, St. Georges-sur-l’Aa, July 2022

LAPC #209 is surreal. In the north of France on the west coast, just over the border with Belgium, is a wood of pylons with powerlines. Like an army stepping into the world, in St. Georges-sur-l’Aa.

Swan Sleep

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – July 2022

LAPC #209 is surreal. The iPhone camera has improved quite a bit: this is a photo taken under a streetlamp of a family of swans, sleeping on the side of the mood in front of our house. It is 3 am, and it could be an image of a dream.

Door Man (Lhasa 2004)

Tibet, Lhasa – April 2004

About the B4 retouch series:

Low Horizon: View on Oegstgeest

The Netherlands, Voorhout – June 2022

This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge is #206 ‘Treasures’. Life deserves to be treasured as it rolls out with us on our journey through our years. Lots of change happens during that trip. One of The Netherlands most wonderful features is the low horizon. Meaning we have so much sky, as a giant canvas to show clouds and patterns. The flat horizon does not attract too much attention, just offers some texture to the straight line. Showing the changes over the years as urbanization and commercial estates grow.
