  • here comes the sun

    I worked in the nightshift and was commuting home in the early morning on my recumbent. The sunrise was beautifull and made clear that wintertime was ending. Days are getting longer from now on. During that hour it takes me to get home, the sky turns from dark to bright. I had my camera with…

  • an inconvenient truth

    I didn’t see the movie “An inconvenient thuth” in the cinema, but now you can see it on google video. It certainly is an inconvenient truth, but remember; Al Gore is an American too ! I think it will give a lot of trouble in my own neighbourhood when sea-level rises. My house is build…

    A short video of our back garden in the storm today. The trees in our neighbour’s garden are a great defence against the storms coming from the south-west . Rea and Mo had to stay inside and were looking through the window.
