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.

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.

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.

England, Holkham – January 202
The theme for LAPC 234 is ‘messages’. The dunes and the retreated sea create a wonderful open space that connects land, sea, sky and men. A space for stories, dreams and desires.

England, Blakeney – January 2023
The theme for LAPC 234 is ‘messages’. At some places old and abandonded boats can be found in the salt marshes. Messages and old stories.

The Lens Artists Photo Challenge #233 is ‘a one lense walk‘. The first week of 2023 we had a short stay at Norfolk; the beauty of its coast and its wildlife gave ample opportunities for photos. The Nikon D500 has the 18-105 mm lens on it. The marshes on the quay of Blakeney around sunrise.

At the end of the year it is time to reflect on the passed year and imagine what the new year may, or should, bring. Whatever that is, I wish you hapiness, luck, love, health and courage to take bold steps.
It is the end of the year and the Weekly Photo Challenge is ‘Last Chance’.

The theme for the weekly lens artists challenge is ‘home sweet home‘. In the middle ages one had to pay tax (toll) to use the canal to enter goods into a city. This is a toll house in Oegstgeest at the Leidsevaart or Trekvaart. I am not following the brief, pointing to the places people should visit in The Netherlands. They are well known, and the paths towards them are flattened by millions of tourists. I just point to small places telling a bit about my flat country. This is the second photo of this toll house, the first was earlier this week (click here).
