Oud Poelgeest
This week’s theme of the weekly lens artists challenge (#135) is ‘glimpse into your world’. Long ago I was born in a small village in The Netherlands. Of course it has grown and changed over the years, but it is still a wonderful location to live. And yes: we do have an old ‘castle’.

My Hometown 6
The theme for the lens-artists#131 is ‘emotions’.
An old tradition is ‘ringsteken’. Literally stitching a ring from a wood block, hanging from a rope over the road, sitting in a carriage, pulled by one or more horses. The jury is watching.
