When I turn arround I am overwhelmed by one of the most beautiful landscape I have ever seen.

The Rottumeroog salt marsh unfolds at my feet like a beautiful giant natural flower bouquet, as far as my eye can see.

The predominant purple-pink color of the sea asters are alternated with the fresh green of grasses and other salt marsh plants, alternated with the soft silver-grey leaves of the sea wormwood.

It is an unforgetable moment to see this dynamic area that is considered a rarity........

  

The "drum fire" as well as the "curtain fire" were carried out with this heavy weaponery. In almost all cases, howitzers were used with a curved range of guns, such as this rare English example.

Both sides made extensive use of this totally failed and complete useless tactics.

During a drum fire thousands of pieces of heavy artillery shelling was carried out on a small front sector and sometimes more than a million shells were fired a day.

The insane tactics of the drum fire changed forests and landscapes forever, every meter of fertile soil was destroyed and hilltops dropped to twenty meters.

The psychological effect of the soldiers of the front was that they did everything to escape from this terrible and inhuman idiocy, very often at the expense of their lives.

A sustained drumfire on a position made front soldiers insane with fear and thus ther was talk of the psychological disorder "Shellshock".

After the donkeys of the staff of both camps experienced that the drum fire didn't had the intented effect, these butchers devised a new tactic called "the curtain fire".

This very shortsighted tactic involved the attackting infantrymen advancing in front of the artillery towards enemy trenches and being protected by a curtain of shells falling in front of them.

Such nonsense might have worked if there had been proper

means of communication.

Because the advancing infantry could not be kept up by the heavy artillery, thousands and thousands infantrymen were killed by their own "friendly" fire.......

Coming inside from taking some pictures I noticed my son’s silhouette as he stood in the kitchen drying dishes.

“I felt that I was in the sanctuary of the arts and sciences…Never did the labour of man show me the human race in such a splendid point of view. In the ruins of Tentyra [ Roman for Dendera] the Egyptians appeared to me giants.”

 

-Vivant Denon, French writer, artist and leading Savant of the Napoleonic Mission to Egypt, 1798-1801

 

When Denon and his team arrived at Dendera in 1802 – Middle Egypt, about 450 km south of Cairo, he was spellbound by what he saw. The partially buried temple still shrouded in sand, captured his imagination and revealed a treasure trove of ancient artifacts preserved to this day. Denon’s pioneering spirit, early account, and unwavering dedication to uncovering the mysteries of the past inspired countless who followed in his footsteps.

 

With its spectacular blue ceilings bedecked with the goddess Nut and astronomical scenes, those gorgeous Hathoric columns, the many rooms and chambers dedicated to Hathor’s attributes: the Menat necklace and sistrum rattle. All elaborately decorated with ancient Egyptian scenes, from pillar to ceiling, from decorated crypt to rooftop shrine.

 

The breathtaking highlight of the temple is the elaborately decorated hypostyle hall supported by 24 Hathor sistrum columns. Among Denderah’s unique features are fourteen small crypts (sacred storerooms under the temple foundations) one traditionally opened for visitors to explore.

Some Were in the World 🌍. The Look.

In the arms of mommy

 

This December 22 we came back to see the little show Margriet and Paula prepared with the kids of their neighborhood.

The ambience was very friendly, the moms brought food and even some daddys were present.

 

I took some candid shot but ended up doing a portrait session so everyone will get a picture :)

 

Margriet and Paula distributed around 53 present to all the children.

 

My contribution will be to offer my pictures to each of them :)

 

What a nice moment :)
