Through the looking glass - Van Gogh


Maybe a once-off, maybe the first of a series. This is van Gogh's famous painting Wheatfield with crows (as seen on my laptop), photographed through the bottom of a whisky glass for a surreal effect.

Obstruction


A photographic souvenir from a day trip to the German city of Ahaus, just across the border. This is a detail shot of the side of the local church - a fascinating combination of an old tower and a modern church.

Last week we visited the organ museum in nearby Elburg. An array of organ pipes always makes for a nice shot.

Organ sonata in the modern style


Last Thursday we visited the organ museum in nearby Elburg. A lovely experience, and I was particularly impressed by this colourful modern organ. With these lines and colours, the shot becomes quite abstract.

Bolsward in ruins


Earlier this week we went on a day trip to nearby Friesland, visiting inter alia the city of Bolsward. We've been to these church ruins before, but the beautiful weather made for better shots than in the past. I like how the shadows on the floor break the symmetry.
