The whole of the moon

England, Walmer – December 2023

I pictured a rainbow
You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

As Below So Above

England, Walmer – December 2024

The panoramic mode on the iPhone is not a favorite setting for me. On Instagram you get bombarded by adds about all Apple did not tell you about taking photos on iPhone: some work, eg using panorama setting for a wider angle (the fun for me using an iPhone is to be curious about all you can do finding it out for yourself).

But making a panorama having a straight line in front of you (a road eg) is hilarious. What would a sky panorama look like? So I did a 360 sky and a 180 horizon of the sea front at Walmer. Just for fun.

Cold Dive

This week LAPC 243 is ‘it’s tricky’. Lots of tricky things.: a cold day, a cold sea, a cold dive. Snapping on the iPhone with zoom, tricky and a bit cheeky.

Dredge

The Netherlands, Katwijk – February 2023

The weekly theme for LAPC #237 is ‘bringing softness’.

Right now the coast at Katwijk is work in progress. Sand is dredged out of the sea, pressed through tubes and added just before the beach under the water. 5,5 cubic meters of sand. Making it safe again and compliant to standards. As always Rijkswaterstaat does an amazing job.

Suppletion of 5,5 million cubic meters of sand – Coastal defense maintenance

The Netherlands, Katwijk – February 2023

The weekly theme for LAPC #237 is ‘bringing softness’. Softness can be achieved in processing a sharp photo. Or just use zoom on an iPhone and do not keep it still while pressing the shutter. It gives the softness that makes this beach view interesting.

Salt Marshes at Blakeney

England, Blakeney – January 2023

The theme for LAPC 234 is ‘messages’. The coast of north Norfolk is one big nature resort with salt marshes and wildlife. The continuous change of the sea water coming in and out, the light changes during the day time and the vastness and beauty are stunning.

The theme for LAPC 234 is ‘messages’. Meet Murphy (the brown Show Cocker) and Cooper (the white brown). Both of them love water (and mud) and love chasing a ball together. When there is water or mud (preferably both) and a ball to catch, they do not stop playing.
