Red and Gold
The iPhone had developed into a nice camera. It is not the same quality als a DSLR or system camera, but it is a lovely point and shooter with more and more options added. The zoom is quite nice, but the human side – holding it still – is a challenge.

Silence in Nature: Exploring Autumn’s Beauty
This week lens artists challenge #323 is ‘silence’. Autumn is a time where we move towards the end of the cycle, preparing for Winter. A time of letting go with the awareness that nature is preparing for Spring. The cycle of life at work, complexity in simplicity.

Embracing Imperfection: Life’s Beautiful Cycle (Look what the cat left behind)
Maybe the best example of perfect imperfection is the cycle of life we see every day around us. When the leaves fall in Autumn in fact nature is preparing for its next Spring. This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #322 is ‘there is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in’. The quote is from a verse by Leonard Cohen about imperfection and beauty, redemption, healing and growth.
‘Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, in everything
That’s how the light gets in‘

There is a Crack in Everything: A Photographic Journey
This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #322 is ‘there is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in’. The quote is from a verse by Leonard Cohen about imperfection and beauty, redemption, healing and growth to overcome pain and hurt. The origin is more ‘cosmic’ and is much older (e.g. Rumi): the only perfect ‘being’ (the light) is the source of all. As humans we are not perfect but we can let the light in to heal our wounds and pain. And essentially learn from it.
Yesterday I showed a photo from the bright side, this one is from the sunrise, and I must say I love the light and the atmosphere.

The Sunny Side
This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #322 is ‘there is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in’. It is from a verse by Leonard Cohen about imperfection and beauty. This photo is just a blunt statement: the light comes from the right. But considering my more frequent photo moments in the early morning on this spot, it is after noon. A total different view on the same view. The way the light hits a scene gives it meaning. And shows different details. It softens, warms an strikes with a tender touch, showing the deeper beauty. Not perfect, but priceless.

Intentional Creative Movement – Light
This week’s Lens Artitsts Photo Challenge (#321) is Intentional Camera Movement (ICM). Yesterday I published photos shot analogue on film: the result is only visible after developing the film. This one is from 2004 with my first digital Nikon D70. The fun of digital is that you can actually see on the back what the result is, and use this feedback to try again. Digital gives freedom and is cheap and gives instant feedback. 20 years of digital playing.

Intentional Creative Movement – Bicycle
This week’s Lens Artitsts Photo Challenge (#321) is Intentional Camera Movement (ICM). These photos are from a workshop in 1997 in France, where we had to create movement with a low shutter speed while following the subject. Basically a fun excercise but done on film. So the result literally came to light after developing the film. The excitement and anxiety about the possible results were out of scale! Patience.
These film archives are the source of my B4 retouch series.
About the B4 retouch series:
I browsed my archive for pictures to publish. Some of them are partly retouched but most do have scratches, dust and stains.

Capturing Moments: A Series of SUP Paddler Photos
Maybe I am not the only one. When I see a wonderful subject, that has to be on a photo, I tend to try out different things fast, to avoid the moment goes. And in the end there is a series of photos that are hard to choose from. What is the solution? I just publish them all. So after SUP Paddler in focus and
the monochrome loneliness of the SUP Paddler here is the last of three. I hope you enjoyed all of them.

Unique Sunrise Photo: SUP Paddler in Focus
The canal is one of my long period objects for photos. I always look if there is something worth a photo when I cross it. Most of the time it is empty, sometimes there is a boat. But this time there was a first: a SUP paddler in a beautiful moody Autumnal sunrise. As if he knew this week’s theme for LAPC #319 is ‘setting a mood’.

Finding Beauty in the Ordinary: Canal Reflections
LAPC #316 is ‘Finding beauty in unexpected places’. One of the objects for photographs is the canal that runs through my village. It is quite ordinary, there is a vast amount of small and little canals to dispose of water in The Netherlands. To manage water in a country that is partly under sea level, one has to build infrastructure to keep dry feet. Two pictures taken at the same moment of the day, slightly different in monochrome style. The first is with the silvertone setting, the last with the dark setting on the iPhone. It changes the atmosphere completely. And one may be more beautiful than the other, it is all in the eye of the beholder.
