Still life "In Grandpa's barn" - to me this photo symbolises life at Goeree-Overflakkee. The pure simplicity, the somewhat sober colours, the close-knit community on an island. It also shows how close the older generation are to nature and basic life. It's maybe that what makes the people at Goeree-Overflakkee special, you just have to learn to see where the real beauty lies.

I found this on the table in Grandpa's shed, artfully viewed you see the classical painting style such as the still lifes of the "Hollandsche Meesters". It was irresistible to photograph this one quickly, to see how close I could get to a "Dutch Master" still life in Grandpa's barn.

Race of the Classics - high class visitors. Hellevoetsluis, as a former historic naval port, was very honored to welcome the Race of the Classics fleet. They were looking for a safe haven, where else, waiting for the race to England.
