This week – and the Challenge last theme – is ‘all time favorites’.
This is the last of the Weekly Photo Challenges organised on WordPress. I enjoyed participating and will sure miss it. I will just post photos this week and not follow the theme. If you want to browse what I posted over the years, follow the link to the tags down here. I am not sure I tagged them all, but you can definitely choose a favourite!

The weekly theme is ‘place in the world’. Where do you belong?
Images of the place I live, my place(s) in the world. One is a bit hard to grasp: music. ‘Place in the world’ brought me immediately to In My Place by Coldplay. Can this song be about flowers?
Last month, exploring the flower fields with tulips near my village (place), I came across this setting. Taking this photo, the power lines and the lonely house set the atmosphere; the flowers are almost gone, some are still there. Flowers come and go, and you have to wait another year for them, but singing flowers? Well, it checks boxes, but not all of them. Perhaps I cross lines I should not cross? Do enjoy the song and the photo.

In My Place – Coldplay
In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn’t change
I was lost
I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldn’t have crossed
I was lost
Yeah how long must you wait for it?
Yeah how long must you pay for it?
Yeah how long must you wait for it?
I was scared, I was scared
Tired and under prepared
But I wait for it
If you go, if you go
Leave me down here on my own
Then I’ll wait for you (yeah)
Yeah how long must you wait for it?
Yeah how long must you pay for it?
Yeah how long must you wait for it?
Sing it, please, please, please
Come back and sing to me, to me, me
Come on and sing it out, now, now
Come on and sing it out, to me, me
Come back and sing it
In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn’t change
And I was lost
Songwriters: Martin / Berryman / Buckland / Champion

The last weekly photo challenge of 2017 is ‘2017 Favourite’: share the most meaningful photo that you have taken in 2017. Well, that is tough: which one of the odd 365 photo’s to choose? A lot of them are special to me, meaningful, but it might be that I did not publish my most meaningful photo of 2017 on my blog. So I am taking my own direction in this theme: I am not going to choose. My personal theme this week will be about photo’s that are leftovers of 2017. And they all are meaningful to me as well. I hope you do not mind. Wishing all of you a fabulous 2018.

The weekly theme is ‘experimental’.
During a short holiday in the South of Spain we had an apartment with a breath taking view over the Mediterranean Sea. Using a long lens made the view even more fun. The effects of light, water and sky were quite surprising.
