Jun 06 – Tower and cinema Just a quick snapshot of the “Munttoren” before going to “Startrek” in the cinema on the right.
Jun 05 – Church and taxes Just like this view near my work. The church is from 1450, the tax office building is a lot newer, but I’m wondering: what would be older: taxes or churches?
Jun 04 – Cruise ship Problem for today. European election day, but couldn’t find much of it on the street (although politicians always claims otherwise). Dalai lama was in Amsterdam (wonderful man, my family was there, I had to work), so for today just a ferry shot (always need the ferry from home to work and vice versa): a cruise ship (not a very big one) on the channel. It’s always a wonderful view to see these big ships passing. Sorry I couldn’t provide better weather here.
Jun 02 – Train Home in Zaandam, work in Amsterdam. So most of my photos this month will be made in one of the two cities. And most of the time there’s a train going between the two (but I’m normally using my bike).
Jun 01 – My garden Very lazy today. Just sitting in my (small) garden in the late afternoon sun with a glass of wine and a camera.
May 23 – Yellow Some yellow flowers with as background a B&W photo I just printed. Bad experience after this photo. Tripod fall down. Camera still working!! Remote transmission for flash light missing some parts, but (with help of some tape) still working.
May 19 – Viola curtisii Couldn’t find an English name for this one. We call it “duinviooltje”, literally translated “dune violet”. Grows in the dunes near the sea. They looked so lovely with the dew in the early morning sunlight.

May 16 – 6 days later… A lot of beauty of my “May 10″ flowers is already gone, but I still like the colors.
May 15 – Teardrop Made a lot a photos of this (unknown) flower lately, but there was always another one I preferred. All my photos today aren’t as sharp as I would like, but I liked the raindrops here.
May 14 – Wild flower Needed some fresh air. Found this beauty. No idea what it is, but I like it. Added: Seems to be a “Silene vulgaris”
May 13 – Forget me not A “forget-me-not” with as background my new (used) car I picked up today. Could use some more polish
May 12 – Bee and blue Found a hedge with this beautiful blue flowers (and some bees). Very cropped and a full midday sun
May 11 – From my garden… Just picked a branch from my garden, washed it and made a photo of it. No idea about the species.
May 10 – Peony The “Motherdays” flowers I bought for my wife. She loves them. Hope I can make another one this month when they are really beautiful.
