    Bo has become part of our family

    Bo has become a permanent member of our family. After Hitch’s euthanasia, I was completely out of my mind.

That’s why I started fantasizing about an older shepherd dog who would undoubtedly feel at…

    A winter walk on the island of Neeltje Jans

    Despite the fact that it is midwinter in the Netherlands, it was 13 degrees Celsius with a warm sun in the province of Zeeland.Everything was covered with a green layer of moss and many of the blackberry bushes had been mowed away by “Natuurmonumenten” with large heavy machines.Way too much nitrogen… Purslane grows very well…

    The weather forecast was correct; rain showers !

    Especially with this type of weather it is great fun to take beautiful pictures. Although it is important to protect the expensive equipment against too much moisture. But … if you are too protective, you will miss the most beautiful moments again.

    Snow

    Our German Shepherd likes the snow to clean his coat. Every now and then it is good to take pictures in the snow again. It makes me aware of how easy digital technology has made it. In the old days, it used to require a lot more craftsmanship from the photographers … Stay safe &…

    Walking the dog, Corona-proof.

    Today I was as good as the only one who walked his dog on the former work island Neeltje Jans.

    Fortunately today it was dry once, at least without rain. So I was able to walk my Sandwalk for a while, together with Marjan and the dog.

    Just visited my former workplace.

    It was storming, it was raining and it was cold. But the dog had to get out and I thought: Let’s go to the monument and let everything blow in the wind … I think it’s fantastic that apparently it was possible to put an old “slakkenpan” next to the monument. Ton Witte could have…
