Yes yes, Im going to bed now lol, it's so much action in our bird garden - and I'm of course a bird whisperer, so I can interpret what you can't get..
😶😆😊
It took a couple of days of waiting in the rain to get this. I'd previously seen a few individuals making jumps in the forest and wanted to get the fiery autumn colours of the larch trees behind the action. This little ninja made me quite happy when he provided.
i waited for the rhythm of the city to break itself open — not in stillness, but in a flick of movement that cuts against the symmetry. under the spine of the eiffel tower, framed by the soft heat of a parisian sun, this skater's lean feels like defiance and surrender at once. it’s a moment caught between gravity and grace, where architecture meets street pulse. you feel the motion, not from blur, but from balance, the way the board twists beneath his feet like a thought mid-sentence. the cranes echo limbs reaching, just as the figure folds into the world’s most photographed backdrop, yet somehow claims it for himself. this is not just paris — it’s its heartbeat mid-kick.
captured in madrid, at the steps of plaza de la puerta cerrada, this photograph freezes a fleeting moment where youth dances with gravity. the skateboarder, airborne and perfectly balanced, seems to defy the very force that pulls us down. the background, a silent witness in shadow, contrasts with the skaterâs dynamic energy, almost as if the city holds its breath in anticipation. the tension in his outstretched arms and the arc of the board mirror each other, creating a visual rhythm that echoes the pulse of the streets. this is not just a trickâit's a statement, a challenge, a moment when time itself seems to pause.
A fisherman in Bali is framed by his own throw net at sunrise. Not sure who had the better catch that morning - the fisherman or the photographer!

Nothing shouts India like playing cricket in front of the Taj Mahal. These kids were playing at a park adjacent to the Taj. Cricket is the most popular sport in India, and you’ll find kids playing the game almost everywhere you go.
This was my first successful dance costume that I made for a showcase in 2006.
It was a daunting project for a costuming virgin... It took almost all of my spare time over a month to finish this and another dress for Rumba dance. It was endless cutting, sewing, pressing, ripping-apart, resewing, repressing... especially for the miles and miles of circular ruffles. I still couldn't believe that I had the perserverence to pull through this complicated and boring construction process...
But the end result paid it all off, it was a hit. It gets a lot of ohs and wows every time it makes an appearance. I would probably simplify some of the designs and choose better fabrics now that I have more experience, but this is nontheless a memorable piece.

Here is another shot from last weekend’s trip to the Oosterscheldekering in Zeeland. I was initially planning to title this image “The Flying Dutchman,” but after the Dutch soccer team’s loss to England in the EK semi-finals, I was worried it might upset some of my Dutch friends. So, I came up with a new title: "Soaring High in Zeeland." What really grabs attention in this shot is the rough sea and, of course, the kitesurfer stealing the show, hanging an impressive 10 meters above the water. The combination of the turbulent sea and the daring kitesurfer truly captivated me - Oosterscheldekering, Zeeland, the Netherlands
The dusty scene at a busy rice drying yard. Towards the end of the afternoon they gather the rice into mounds and cover it with a giant bamboo lid. This was my first time seeing a rope aided wooden rake meant for pushing instead of pulling towards the operator, but I guess it makes sense since you're having to push against a wall of rice grains.
We originally planned a long bike ride with friends in Kamperland, promising ourselves mussels and fries at Neeltje Jans afterward. We started our bike ride, but after a couple of kilometers, the 7 Beaufort winds became too strong to continue safely. We had to return, walking our bikes against the powerful gusts. Despite the challenging weather, we still treated ourselves to those delicious mussels and fries at Neeltje Jans in the end. 😊
Hi Everyone!
Sorry I haven't been around much. I haven't picked up my camera in weeks and I have had internet trouble as well.
I took this last weekend on my way home from the lake. I forgot to take my Canon.
As for my health. I am doing pretty good. still waiting for news on a kidney donor match. I have now been doing dialysis on a night cycler which is working awesome. I was getting really puffy the other way.
I hope to catch up with all of you soon! Enjoy the weekend! We have family day tomorrow. Nice long weekend!
