SHADOW

It is late autumn. Suddenly I saw something of light between the shadows during my walk through the young forest. At this time of the year everybody longs for light. I saw a couple of ferns ready for wintertime. They were lit by the late sunlight telling me how pretty autumn can be.

ENJOY!

WARM

 

It’s about 19.00 hrs at Domburg. Together with a group of photographers we stay at Domburg during the weekend. Making photographs at the beach. It’s raining during the main part of the day. Suddenly the sun calls. A wake-up call for the most of us. Only one photographer is aware of what’s happening. He grabs his equipment and runs outside. It’s Gerry. The nature lover. Thanks to him I made this impression to be seen and for sale at ‘Werk aan de Muur’.

ENJOY!

ROWS AND COLUMS

It’s beachtime again. Domburg this time. One of the oldest cities of the Netherlands in Zeeland. Region for artists during the past because of the special light at sea. Nowadays mainly used by German vacationers. I saw these rows and colums stretched in the sea and put attention to do not cut of the left side. Not only because of the number at that side but mainly not to convey a locked-in feeling. Domburg…..the place to be.

ENJOY!

SADNESS

‘Sometimes I feel so sad, so bad’, Mercury sung. Today I feel pretty good, however this image shows contrary. I made it some days after yesterdays image and still can feel the sorrow it expresses.

Life and dead and a couple of days in between. Things go fast in real life. Anyway it’s time to enjoy every minute.

I did it during composing and this time during writing about it. I love the image and the transience carrying it inside.

ENJOY!

LIGHT

How valuable is light?! Of course for photographers but also for all human beings. One of the most impressive images I made is that one I made of the sunflower in my garden.

I like the colors, however they are not complementary. Once I  red a story of the great Paul Huf going for the footsteps of Vincent van Gogh.

I just stayed at home….

ENJOY!

EMERGENCY

Feelings like emergency and hope coming up when I look at this picture. It is late summer I made a walk along the beach. No tourists anymore. They disappeared. A deserted beach has left. The sign at the breakwater makes no sense at this time of the year. Maybe for the daredevil. Anyway I liked the waves, the clouds and the stormy weather. Moreover I enjoyed my new camera. So

ENJOY!

TOGETHER….

Sometimes you have to wonder about life. Most of the time, by the way.

But during this period time passes by in a way of unconsciousness. Time does not exist. Especially not for grandfathers.

On a sunny day somewhere in the neighborhood of a young forest I spot my grandchildren passing by. It’s a moment I will never forget.

ENJOY!

SILENCE

SILENCE is the only word I can imagine when I see this picture of Finland again. It’s July 2006 and we are looking for a campsite somewhere in the south of Finland.  Nearby one of the thousands of lakes. It seems there is nobody at home wherever we go that day. Finally we find a campsite. Not English spoken over there. So with hands and feet we try to make a reservation for some days. It is complicated. Anyway we are in Finland and near a lake. Sometimes we see naked people ready for the cold water after a heat sauna. Then I see a fisherman with his boat coming across the lake. I wait for the moment he rises his paddles……

ENJOY!

IF YOU EVER…

“…change your mind about leaving…..” The Stones sang a couple of years ago. I had to think about it, seeing this boat again. A lake in Finland. Every lake in Finland has severals boats. That guys are leaving a lot. Maybe they go fishing.

I like the lakes of Finland. Especially for their tranquillity and the deep water in it. Lots of clouds are reflecting in the water when the weather is calm. So you have to be calm yourself for this picture. No encouraging needed!

ENJOY!

FRESH

It’s Finland again. I like the fresh colors. It’s nothing and it is all. Therefore I like Finland.

It’s because of nothing. It’s because of the trees. The white trunks. The yellow fields full of rapeseed.

Nothing at some square feet.

ENJOY!
