Opportunity Knocked Out

The Netherlands, Leiden – November 2019

Hudson Bay did not assess the Dutch market well, and now closes its shops at the end of the year.
The internet changed the way of shopping: main street stores that do not adjust disappear.
Leaving holes in the shopping front. One way or another, I do love mannequins.

Berlin Wall 30 years ago

On November 9 1989 the Berlin Wall opened. A few days later I happened to be in Berlin for a short holiday. The Wall was open. There was a an opening in the  Potsdamer Platz. A long row of people was waiting in the big empty space. On the east side the atmosphere was still spooky and depressing. The Wall had opened, but the  infrastructure that kept East-Germans inside was still there. The guards, the towers, the barb wire, the mines, the ‘no man’s land zone’, the spooky and unrealistic atmosphere of separation and repression. On the west side spirits were high; people were attacking The Wall to get memorabilia, tearing it down with hammers and chisels. There was the anticipation of change, everybody (including the press at the Brandenburger Tor) was waiting for The Big Opening. It was the principal press area for reporting from Berlin in those days. People selling t-shirts, buttons. Here an album of pictures of these days. Some I published earlier some are new.  I will never forget how it felt to walk through East-Berlin which was still in its old state. In a way I am happy I did that, before it all disappeared. I am looking forward to a long weekend in Berlin to visit these places again and going to one of the most vibrant cities in the world.

A Magical Place

The Netherlands, Amsterdam – September 2019

The theme for the weekly Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #63 is ‘magical’.
The Johan Cruijff Arena, home of Ajax Amsterdam, just before the start of a home match.
One of the fixed events at a home match is a young player juggling a ball in the middle of the pitch.
This boy of 8 managed to do that 2736 times. Then he had to stop because the match started.
Apart from the magic of that boy, this is the place where Ajax creates its magic.
