A refreshing and calming color combination of blue shades and white with a sense of serenity and tranquility in a minimalist perception. Shot from Dahab seashore during low tide.

The Dutch Park Ducks are a hybrid of different breeding forms and the wild form of the Mallard. They can only be distinguished from Mallards by the colour that deviates from the wild form and sometimes by their behaviour (less shy). Background: In the past, Ducks were often kept free-range around farms. These Ducks were selected for a high egg production and were more productive than chickens at the time! When duck eggs went out of fashion, many of these Ducks were left to their fate. These Ducks have mixed with the wild form of the Mallard and this forms the basis for the current Park Ducks. The process of mixing is still going on because Ducks are still kept in a semi-wild state today. These 'modern tame Ducks' are usually ornamental ducks (selected for appearance), which are sometimes descended from old utility breeds. As a result, the number of colour varieties among the Park Ducks is constantly increasing. Consequences of natural selection: Domesticated ducks show a great variation in size and body shape. After one or two generations, nothing of this variation can be seen anymore. Apparently there is a very strong natural selection that mercilessly excludes all ducks with a 'deviating body shape'. Ducks with a deviating body shape or size are therefore almost always tame ducks that have been released (dumped) by their owner and not 'real park ducks'. Value of park duck observations: There are different opinions about park ducks and some would rather keep them off observation lists. However: they form a significant part of the (wild) avifauna in the Netherlands. They are often the first birds that children come into contact with and so they are an important step on the way to a 'perception awareness'. After all, they are a living consequence of our cultural history, which is nowhere in the world as prominent as in the Netherlands. All reasons not to ignore them. Colour variations (in progress): In addition to the wild colour and the white colour (not albino), all kinds of mixed and intermediate forms occur. There are also almost entirely black specimens known. It would be nice if a photo series could be collected on this site that shows the colour variation in park ducks. The large variation in colour varieties often leads to confusion, partly because these colour varieties are not depicted in bird guides.
A calmness arises when we are in a quiet place with a sensory subject that brings our mental focus out of hiding and into the here and now.
I have written a short Facebook post that uses this image and the original image as examples of my opinion on artistic photography. It will give you a peek at how much changed in the post processing.

There is no truth. There’s only perception.

This, believe it or not, started out as an Infrared image. Carefully massaged into a false color Infrared to mimic a blue hour shot.
Shot with the Olympus E-M1 along the Rive Gauche.

Time for a touch of minimalism. This is a little scene I found at Wellington Reservoir in Western Australia on an overcast day. The dead tree stump poking out of the water caught my attention especially and I decided to take few long exposures to create a subtle moody image.

Fuji X-Pro3, Fujinon XF 2/90. This close-up is an 'arranged' self-portrait, meaning that I am trying to show myself as inviting as possible. And yet there is unease. I think the reason for this is the mismatch between self-perception and photo. In my mind, I am not that old as the image is telling me. This is different from denial. I am aware of my age and my body tells me in no uncertain terms what goes on. However, inside my mind there is unlimited mobility stretching out to where the void begins and all movement eventually stops. Unease.
We all have our own perceptions in life and at some point of time we try to convince others to agree to our perception thinking that ours is the only right one.
In this image, a circle shape can be seen from top but it is also a flask-shape when it is viewed from other angle, both shapes are real and both angles are right, it is just a difference of perception.
We should respect each other's perceptions, point-of-views, ideas, suggestions, advises, etc. and should be open to those things for better human relation.

We found a cute little cafe for our cup of tea, called Changing Perceptions. Some info below, for those who are interested!
Changing Perceptions has quickly evolved from Godalming’s best kept secret to a popular and bustling Café and home interior shop. Located at the very top of the High Street this unique and vibrant social enterprise is just a stone’s throw away from the Meath. Meath clients are supported to up-cycle donated furniture in the on-site workshop which is then put on sale in the shop, with all profit going straight back to the charity. It is a very important part of the Meath’s philosophy to help dispel the stigma associated with epilepsy and to assist all of our clients to live alongside people from all walks of life, sharing similar experiences and hopes and dreams for the future.
This is my last photo from this trip, but don't worry, I have another couple of day trips to share!!
distortion of time perception
I started building this language in 2012. Not knowing that silence has a grammar, that clocks without hands have a syntax, that a figure standing still in an empty landscape
could become a word the whole world would learn to say.
I built it alone, layer by layer in the hours when no one was watching. And one day it was everywhere.
Created by voices that had no memory of learning it,
worn by images that had no recollection of the original,
repeated in millions of variations by something that does not know what it means to wait, to lose, to stand in front of a clock that has forgotten how to move.
This is a gallery of what came first.
Every frame on these walls is mine, from the same serie in search of lost time:
timelessness
the arrow of time
time essence
where time ends
the tower of eternity
the spiral of time
time disorder
general relativity of time
the other side of time
things come when the right time comes
And at the centre, a frame that holds nothing. A mirror without time. Because the original is always the one that exists before the reflection.
As this serie existed before the reflection had a name, before the algorithms learned to dream of clocks, before a million images about time were made in seconds by machines that had first seen mine.
