The Kurhaus is an old style hotel in Scheveningen. It is the only left over of the historical sea facade. The rest was demolished, and replaced with high rising concrete cubes.

The beach of Scheveningen, a few hours before sunset. The hour before sunset is always a kind of holy grail for photographers, but at about three hours before sunset the light over sea starts to change dramatically. The domain of gulls, flying around over the beach restaurants, scavaging for food, lit up against a backdrop of golden rays.

The beach of Scheveningen, a few hours before sunset, domain of gulls soaring and an incidental kite surfer against a backdrop of golden rays.

The Pier of Scheveningen, blocked out by a fence that is erected to work on the boulevard. A weird composition of lines, colours and objects, filled in with some gulls. And I do like the lamp post.

LAPC 308 is about perfect pairs, by creating a diptych (two images placed in proximity to one another, forming a pair). Every self respecting town and village needs a ferris wheel.

This week lens artists photo challenge is ‘that special place’. The beach is a place to relax, let go and create space and a fresh head. And you can see more than water and beach at times. This one is also an entry for Paula’s pick a word competition on ‘Lost in Translatation’. It looks like the surfers are in chaos, but actually they use the water and wind systematic.

Years ago I posted a long series titled ‘photographers framed while shooting’. This is another one in that genre, on the hottest day on record in The Netherlands.
The theme for Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #57 is ‘taking a break’. .

The theme for Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #56 is Seashores and/or Lakeshores. Scheveningen used to be a small fishing village but now is part of Den Haag.
The Kurhaus is the only remaining old building. In the sixties everything except the Kurhaus was demolished and replaced by modern type buildings. Killing the sight and sphere of the coastline.
