Het Schip ("The Ship"). Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Social housing cooperative Eigen Haard ("Our own hearth") asked architect Michel de Klerk in 1919 to design and build 102 houses. It is a beautiful example of the Amsterdamse School style of architecture.
Even the fonts for the house numbers were especially designed.
"The Wave" is a sandstone rock formation in Coyote Buttes North, Paria Canyon - Vermillion Cliffs Wildness, USA. You have to be one of 20 who has luckily got the permits to enter this unique and wonderful landscape.
From the Wire Pass Trailhead, the Wave can be reached by hiking approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) across open desert, making the round-trip to and from the Wave a nearly 6-mile (9.7 km) hike that climbs about 350 feet (110 m) in altitude.
It's so strenuous hike for me to walk on sandy ground carrying 4 L of drinking water and heavy camera equipments on my own. After long strenuous hike, the last part of the trail is the steep sandy cliff that made me almost gave up because of my legs clamps. After resting for a while and my pain became better, I made a judgment for final climbing up. I didn’t want to throw away my opportunity that not easy to get it back again. Finally, I could reach my dream destination.
It's one of the most wonderful places ever seen. I have been very happy every time I look at this photo, it is not because I can get here and take this photo by myself but because I made a right decision for trying to get my opportunity. The day before I got into the Wave, at time I knew that I was one of the luckiest people was one of the most happiness moments in my life.
I've always been fascinated by the form and beauty of waves, and how they build up energy and then release it onto the beach. Use your imagination and see the sine wave within the wave, as it breaks left to right.

Completely overcast day.
A wave in a Sardinian beach. The day hadn't been too "beachy", with the cloudy sky and a sudden storm that made us to take refuge in the bar. But then the sun appeared a little trhough the clouds and made the waves look like this. Couldn't resist.
Had fun getting out and seeing the gorgeous waves after the storm cleared last Fri. More rain on the way today...woo hoo!
I haven't been to this beach, Fortunes Rocks, since I was a kid. It was my dad's favorite beach because it was quiet in comparison to other local beaches. I can remember climbing over the roadside rocks to get onto the beach. They seemed gigantic back then and my mother worried we'd get hurt...they didn't seem so big or scary today. Many memories of fun with my family but especially my dad were revisited today. I didn't end up with many good shots today but I hit the jackpot in other ways. :)
20+ knot winds made KAP difficult at best, but the wind across Kua Bay was steady enough to fly a Flowform 8 and lift my BBKK rig. At times, though, the rig was at risk of catching surf spray.
Number two in a series of wave abstracts.
I couldn't get a lot of height because of the high wind speed and the low line angle on my only high wind kite, my Flowform 8. So I spent time playing with the waves.
Equipment Used:
Kite - Flowform 8 + 15' Fuzzy Tail
Line - #200 Dacron
Rig - R/C BBKK
Camera - Canon A650IS
