Belgium, Antwerp – August 2022
Impressions of a walk throught Antwerp. Each big tourist city seems to have one, and so does Antwerp. This week lens artists challenge #214 is ‘favourite finds’.

This Summer the sky seems to be a source for me. Clouds are magnificent at times.

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.

The rolls always give me the impression they are on their way, rolling.

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.

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, over a field of ripples, in St. Georges-sur-l’Aa.

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.

Overtaking a farmer in a field next to the motorway. The Netherlands is as flat as a pancake here, and imagine a sea level about six meters higher than where we are. Well we are used to it. Lens Artists Photo Challenge #203 for this week is ‘local vistas’.

At times the incoming traffic for Schiphol gets annoying. Especially when it is cloudy. The limit for approach is 600 feet here. They do create graphic images at time. That is a small benefit.

North West winds mean a lot of planes coming in over our house. Every 90 seconds. Between 1000 and 800 feet, making their approach on Schiphol, 20 kilometers away. The sound is annoying at times, but they do deliver nice images.

The Lens-artists challenge #197 is ‘rule of thirds’. The rule of thirds is a rule of thumb how to compose images. But a photo that creates a journey of the eye can also be made by using lines and colors. Even when the horizon is not on 1/3.

The Lens-artists challenge #196 is ‘humor‘. A bit of a weird moment meting a Delta plane overhead.

This week lens artists photo challenge is ‘that special place‘. The moon is a big inspiration for stories and songs. The Dark Side of the Moon is a brilliant album by Pink Floyd, Mad man Moon on Trick of the Tail by Genesis, R.E.M.’s Man on the moon, Moon over Bourbon Street by Sting are some of them. And of course a French folk song ‘Au clair de la lune’. And the moon has impact on our lives on this planet: the moon causes tides on seas, and apparently has impact on the menstrual cycle.

The weekly LAPC (Lens Artists Photo Challenge) #182 is ‘interesting objects’. This is the front of the city hall of Caylus. The clock and the shutters caught my attention, together with the deep blue sky.

Yesterday I posted a photo of the Pont de Normandie. Today another one in monochrome showing the ‘hill’ effect and its beautiful shapes.
