High Lights

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – November 2021

Theme #177 of Lens Artists Photo Challenge is celebrating. A moment during the day, seeing the light of the sun split. A moment of presence and focus, being quiet for a moment. Thinking of Nicolas Cramer.

Light

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – November 2021

Theme #177 of Lens Artists Photo Challenge is celebrating. A moment during the day, seeing the light of the sun split on a shrubbery in the front garden. A moment of presence and focus, being quiet for a moment to celebrate life.

Evidence of Autumn

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – November 2021

The theme for this week’s Lens-artists Photo Challenge #176 is One image/one story. That theme matches the subject of my photo blog: What’s (in) the picture? Finding stories. Photo’s tell stories. My story (what made me click my shutter), and the story of the spectator.

Autumn Sunset

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – November 2021

The Autumn was short this year. High temperatures were pleasant, but the amazing colors on leaves that are normal for this time of year, were not present. And when the weather changed the leaves came off the trees very fast. Luckily the sunsets are always there.

Hybrid Working

The Netherlands, Voorschoten – October 2021

Since the pandemic started we worked from home. But now we start up to work at home and a few days at the office. Hybrid working. I enjoyed being on a train again, seeing the landscape, so familiar but so pleasingly fresh and new to my eyes, passing by. And yes, of course you meet a signpost on a photo.

Shoes

The Netherlands, Naarden – June 2007

This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge (#161) is ‘feet and shoes’. Trying to find something that fits into this theme was difficult. I am not really into shoes or feet, let alone photos of them! However, I found one. I think. During a visit to the bi-annual photo exhibition at Naarden (FFN) in 2007 I shot these photographers clicking away on a just married couple.
