Morning dew...

Morning dew...
Waking up, having breaky and looking out the window into the back yard... The hedge was filled with spider webs, all coverd with morning dew... The beauty of the design of their 'self build house and pray catching device' becomes more obvious... And it makes it easy for us guys to not walk into them as well...!!

Shapes & Curves...

Shapes and curves...
It's all about roundings, shapes and curves... Not only with the human creations of mother earth but also in our own graphic creations... Nice typefaces and beautiful typography is like eye-candy... (Jus have a look on Pinterest - Typography...) Let us go back to the time of the old school ad board painters and pin-stripers... Respect to (all) the craftsmen creating stuff with their hands...!

Distracted by appearence...

Distracted by appearence...
I was watching tele last night, the 2010 Shanghai movie was on... I kind of followed the story, playing in WW2... Somehow I got distracted by the appearence of Gong Li...

Click, clack...

Overloaded...?
That's what I think about when I see Japanese tourists taking pictures of everything they see... Their memory cards, laptops, families ability to absorb impressions of their relatives holiday in Europe,
they all will be overloaded...
Maybe it's an idea to be more selective in what you want to capture... It always makes me laugh when I see a situation like this... Making pictures of a flowershop, not only the man but also the woman, so 'double overloaded'...
How often will they look back at these thousands of pictures the caught on their holiday...???

Boating...

Making our way to the zoo on Sunday... We took the Fast Fying Ferry to Amsterdam and walked from Amsterdam-Central station towards the Artis zoo... On our way we passed and unique moment... A couple of solar boats were coming together and bunched up for a demonstration on the canals of Amsterdam... The place they bunched up couldn't be better... Hyper modern boats in front of our one of sea sailing history heritage boats at the Marina museum... Ultra new and very old in one pica... Ain't that beautiful..??

Surf's up...!


Surfing, surfing,... Windsurfing...
This week with work we had a windsurf clinic, arranged by one of the cool surf dudes [including a nice sun teint ;-)]I'm working with...
Dressing up like Patric Swayze in the movie 'Point Break', in a very thight surf suit... Getting ready for my first ever windsurfing experience...
Dark threatening clouds above us and rain falling down... We even had a circle up in the clouds caused by turning winds... Very cool skies...!!!
It was a nice experience but after looking up the bottom of the surf board for about 90 times, I decided that this sport is not my cup of tea...
I'm more a coffee guy...!!

Catching a sunset...

On a Friday evening, after work... After a rain storm, after some little showers, after diner at the beach... we witnessed this beautiful sunset...
I even caught a very nice lens flare whilst catching this setting sun...
Just below the sun you see the edge of the rain front...

Dredging the surf....

Dredging in the surf...
Nature is a beauty thing and teaching kids, or making them aware, about it is even more beautiful. Just like last year we attended in a dredge birthday party on the beach.
The fathers dressed up in wetsuits and dragged the net behind the waves of the surf. We had a black flag on the beach so we had pretty strong and big waves...
Ooow, that's way it was so bloody bussy with kite surfers...
Any ways; the things dredged from the sea were great. All kinds of fish and other small marine wildlife... The kids loved it and got a bit educated as well... Let's do it again, soon...

(Almost looks like surfers paradise...)
