Reflections
Thursday Thoughts – Marken
Welcome to Marken, a village in North Holland, the Netherlands. This 2000 – inhabitant – village makes up a peninsula that attracts thousands of tourists every year. Because of its originality as a former small fishing town, it was considered a relic of the traditional native culture that would disappear as the modernization of the […]Read Post ›
Thursday Thoughts – Trying to Photograph My Dogs…
We set out in the early morning to enjoy the stillness and the bird song – I thought I might get some photos of the two boys together too…Totti hates the camera, but Milo tries to be …complaisant. Not always succeeding, but, he helped checking out the bird houses … …even if they were still […]Read Post ›
Lens-Artists Challenge #37: History
For this week’s challenge, Patti has chosen History. At first I wanted to write about Riga, the capital of Latvia, whose history begins as early as the 2nd century.

Macro Monday – From Soil to Ice
My son found this little one when walking the path up to my door. Surely he is a bit too early on his way – the snail? February only. He was so tiny, only about 3 millimeters, and still venturing out in this big world…on icy paths with an unwashed house. He ”looked” at me… […]Read Post ›
Thursday Thoughts – Winter Fun!
A glorious morning! Mum said, and I could just hear the promise in her silvery voice! And off we went as soon as breakfast was finished – and she was right… Out of the car and into the snow! Yes, yes, I know… she told me to look at her for the photo, but I […]Read Post ›
Macro Monday
The winter is still a feast in my garden – some mornings offer a shimmering, microcosmic world of crystals. Nature’s wonders are always the best wonders.
