A popular beer from an original small independent brewery on the island of Texel is called ‘Skuumkoppen’. It refers to the white on breaking waves.

A bench in the lazy shade offers a view, looking up to see the top and roofs of the houses. It’s a way to connect to a town for me (LAPC 303)

Today we remember that 80 years ago thousands were willing to pay the highest price to give us our freedom. John Steele landed on the pinnacle of this church in the early morning of June 6 1944 in Sainte-Mère-Église.
To the brave and courageous
Who were willing to pay the ultimate price
And gave me my freedom
As a precious treasure
Never to be taken as a right
But like they did then to be defended
Again and again
Lest not forget

An approach of any plane over a motorway strikes me always with a little anxiety. Not it will crash but the opportunity to have a nice shot at it.

The Lens Artists Photo Challenge #297 is ‘music to my eyes’. The moon through insulated glass. The story of Mad Man Moon by Genesis.

The Lens Artists Photo Challenge #297 is ‘music to my eyes’. Images and music are a strong way of bringing back memories, feelings, situations you once experienced. This photo clicked my memory for a Pink Floyd album ‘Obscured by clouds’. It is not so much the clouds that obscure in this image, the branches of the trees create a web of lines over the sky and sun.

Skies can be amazingly dramatic these days, sometimes aided by a whiff of Sahara sand in the mix of light and clouds.

A few weeks ago I published a photo from the same point of view, but with basking sunny weather. This one is showing an overcast day, in the middle of the week. The previous one was shot with iPhone13promax, and this one is iPhone15promax. Spot the differences :-).

This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #292 is ‘People here, there and everywhere’.
I do not know who took this photo, I do not know the date. We assume it is just after World War 2, May 1945. And we assume my father took it. The photo lacks focus unfortunately, but that adds to the thrill of figuring out what is on it. Luckily we could ask the youngest sister of my father (my last aunt still alive); she thinks it is taken just after the war.
There is a parade on the street, observed by people; among them the sisters and brother of my father from the top window of my grandfather’s house (called Weltevreden) where my father lived. The point of view is from a window of the house where my mother lived, and where I would be born 14 years later.
The negative is quite poorly and damaged, but a sweep through Lightroom and Snapseed provided this old memory.

The theme for the weekly Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #291 is ‘Cityscapes’. The first sun got people out to enjoy the rays while having a drink on the junction of the Oude Rijn and Nieuwe Rijn in Leiden. On the right De Waag, the weighing house.
