Spring Daffodil
The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – March 2021
The 140th Weekly Lens Artists Challenge is ‘change of scenery’. During the pandemic my window to the world shrunk. But this year I do what I always do in Spring: shooting the flowers growing right outside the kitchen window. The good old Nikon D500 with long lens being in use again, waiting on the kitchen table each morning when I open the shutters. A micro or macro change of scenery, but nature nurtures not only its plants. Indeed you do not have to go far for a change of scenery.

Lhasa Tibet
The 139th Weekly Lens Artists Challenge is ‘special moments’. Pilgrims at the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa.
In March 2004 I visited Tibet. It would be an understatement if I said it was just overwhelming. The backdrop of the Himalayas. The fact that we were ‘high’: most of the time 3500 meters over sea level, my normal level of living.
The people and their close contact with religion, Buddhism. All parts of a puzzle that hopefully will bring me back there one day.

Oud Poelgeest
Two weeks ago I published a color version of this view. This is a silver monochrome, with a different feel towards it. It suggests a different age and time. Mono, with a hint of sepia, brings this image back years to the previous century. Or am I old and going soft in melancholy? The 137th Weekly Lens Artists Challenge is about ‘soft’.

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’.
