Found this in my garden this afternoon. I like the range of colors. From “not ready yet” to “almost ready”.

Wanted to make a portrait of both our cats, no luck. So just Neo for today.

Jun 23 – Evening

The sunlight was almost gone (10:15 PM), but I didn’t want to miss this day, so I walked to the end of the street to make this photo. Should have taken my tripod with me, lot of noise with this ISO value.

Jun 22 – Snail

Found this little guy on my garden table this morning. He was still there, sleeping in his house, when I came back home this afternoon. I’m not a snail expert, so he could be a she.

Jun 21 – Sugar bowl

Our sugar bowl with an old, but nice spoon.

Jun 20 – Lady with rose

Spent a lot of the day with editing photos I made last wednesday for “Wiki loves art”. So for today I made a photo of a rose and added it to one of the paintings. Think she could use it.

Jun 19 – Rain and sun

Just a little experiment. Two photos combined (15 minutes between them). Made through a window and just guessing the angel (no tripod). Upper left: lots of rain, lower right: the sun came back.

Jun 18 – Between the rails

A quick “lunch walk” photo. Would be nice to see a train or two on this one. Not much time to make comments. Lots of young people (age 18/19) got a good exam results today (including my daughter), so it’s party time in the neighbourhood for some days here.

The market square at Haarlem with the Great or St. Bavo church. Made photos in the — The market square at Haarlem with the Great or St. Bavo church. Made photos in the “Frans Hals” museum today, “Wiki loves art” is running here this month. Lot of restrictions in the museum, but it was wonderful to do. I’m not a big fan of old paintings, but it’s very nice to look at them through a camera.

Jun 16 – Papaver

I liked the combination of red an green here during a short walk after the rain.

Jun 15 – Portraits

Portrait day at school. Playing a little with some portraits. Only my portrait (upperleft) wasn’t made by me (thanks John!). Homework: a decent selfportrait within two weeks

Jun 14 – Pond

Just a little playing in my garden on a lazy sunday afternoon. Tried to catch a drop falling in my (repaired) pond. The light is from my flash, but I also needed (a lot of) sun, since the water pump is solar powered.
