Historical country house also to be opened to the public
As of 1 September, the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam will be using the historical country house, Trompenburg, as an extra location. Trompenburg, which is close to Hilversum, was built after 1677 by Admiral Cornelis Tromp (1621-1691), the son of the legendary Admiral Maarten Harpertsz Tromp. The residence, that was built to resemble a ship, will be open for use by the Rijksmuseum from 1 April to 1 October for holding lectures, small conferences and small-scale exhibitions. In addition, Trompenburg will also be opened to the public a few times each year.
A monument for the Tromp family
Throughout the years, Trompenburg House has been a home to different families, and has been in the care of the Government Buildings Agency as a monument since 1938. Cornelis Tromp, who was the commander-in-chief of the Dutch and Danish fleet, built Trompenburg as a monument for himself and his ancestors, his father in particular. The Tromp family's glory is the theme of the dome hall - which can be seen as the maritime answer to the Oranjezaal, the central chamber in Huis ten Bosch Palace. The dome hall contains the portraits of father and son Tromp and both their wives, portraits of the ships and the naval battles.
Decoration and exhibitions
Trompenburg will not be used for large exhibitions, as the country residence is too small. However, the Rijksmuseum is considering whether the house could be decorated with art works on a limited scale. Where possible, any art work that is selected will be in keeping with the themes of life on a 17th Century country estate and the maritime history of the period of 1630 and 1690.
Due to the limited capacity of Trompenburg House, the exhibitions as well as the lectures and conferences will all be small-scale. The house will be opened to the public once a month during the April-October season (six times in total). A steward will reside at Trompenburg House.

I use "Big Head" for more fun.
For someone, orange groves - a common occurrence.
But for me it is something special.
In my country, oranges are not grow, and these trees are just amazing for me
Feel, like in a fairytale, and that's amazing
I used 4 Wombo creations to bring this together. The top half and bottom half are 2 different images. The car and the tree beside it were 2 separate images. All was blended using Pixelmator Pro.
Prompts: Autumn trees, windy, swirling leaves, puddles, misty, cold, ultra realistic details
Style: The City
Input image was the same as used for "Autumn Rain"
Wishing all of you a great weekend!

Sammy belongs to my friend, Les. Mk1 used to belong to his Mum, who also used to belong to me, but I gave him away as I was living with a violent partner, and was worried Sammy would get hurt or worse, then it was my turn to leave.
Mk2 seemed to be a stray that decided she was adopting Les. Sammy is a funny one, apparently where she is sitting, is her favourite spot in the garden, next to the plant pots. 😊🐱
My son Antonio requested I take the photo, he adores cats and unfortunately because he is so allergic to them, we can't have one.

The Maudaiae type of Paphhiopedilum, single flowered hybrid called after one of the first, and most delightful, hybrids made within this group. Their oval leaves are attractively mottled in green and gray-green, sometimes darkly peppered on the undersides, and their elegant flowers, carried proudly on tall, slender stems.

Tu color es el color del agua,
oh cuerpo del lenguaje
allí donde el agua es
levadura, rayo o fuego.
El agua se enciende y se convierte en rayo, se convierte
en levadura y en fuego,
en nenúfar
que pide mi almohada
para dormir...
Oh río del lenguaje,
viaja conmigo dos días, dos semanas por la levadura de los secretos,
recogeremos mares, descubriremos madreperlas,
lloveremos rubíes y ébano,
aprenderemos que la magia
es un hada negra
que no se enamora más que de el mar.
Viaja conmigo, aparece aquí... desaparece allí...
y pregunta conmigo, oh río del lenguaje,
por la concha que muere para convertirse
en nube roja
de lluvia,
en isla
que camina o vuela,
pregunta conmigo, oh río del lenguaje,
por una estrella cautiva
en las redes del agua
que lleva entre sus pechos
mis últimos días.
Pregunta conmigo, oh río del lenguaje,
por una piedra de la que brota el agua,
por una ola de la que nace la roca,
por el animal del almizcle, por una paloma de luz.
Desciende conmigo por el tragaluz de las tinieblas
al lugar
donde habita el tiempo roto
para que el lenguaje sea
un poema que se viste con el rostro del mar.

Macro Mondays theme Single Use
Dishwasher tablet on Aluminium Foil - both single use. Frame measures 3.5 cm in width.
What this theme has highlighted is what a shockingly wasteful bunch us humans are!
I won't be around to comment today as it's my Mother-in-Law's Funeral.
Wishing everyone a Happy Macro Monday (even though I'm not quite feeling it).
I think Carolin took this photograph, with her phone. Edits by me, in Lightroom. I mostly used gradient filters to balance the sky and foreground exposure & shadow levels.
Here is a photo of what use to be a Sears store, at the corner of Crosstimbers and N. Shepherd Drive, on the north side of Houston Texas, USA. My family shopped here a lot when I was a kid. The toy department was up stairs and at one time there was a cafe in the corner that the camera is pointed at. The photo was taken back in August 2022, with a Canon 80D with a EF-S 18-135mm lens with adjustments made in post-processing. Enjoy!
I used a painterly app on this shot. Another one found in my archives. I've been staying home during this stressful time, so no new photos.
I do hope you are all healthy and safe and thank you so much for your visits, comments, faves and group invites. I do appreciate them all.

Experiments in infra red in the back garden. Despite the April frosts my Magnolia is doing well. I was out early on to get a shot using the Z6 without any infra red conversion just with a with an Urth I-Red 72 filter and this set up seems to to do a decent IR shot. Had the camera on a tripod with the 2nd timer on it & I'm relatively pleased with the results. It probably looks more like a black and white than an ir shot. But I think when we have more leaves and blossom etc. It will work fine. I've tried IR filters on other lenses and cameras and I end up with hot spots so this seems a good combo. Hope you enjoy.
