classic fallacy
Last night I suddenly woke up to realize that I was making a classic fallacy in my so-called selfie through the bathroom mirror. It is not a selfie, but a registration of the image as I am used to seeing myself. For the rest of the world, it is a mirror image … To make a selfie of that mirror image, I have to mirror the

Blue Funnel nostalgia (blauwpijpers)
In my thoughts, I was briefly back in the 1970s when I sailed as an engineer at NSM “Oceaan”. Just a few videos I found on the worldwideweb to get an idea …

torn apart skeletons of Thermphos.
I took these photos in January 2020. Torn apart “skeletons” of Thermphos. They were located on the square, which was temporarily used as a kind of cemetery. All the RA-contaminated “meat” was taken off and sprayed off. Not long after, the entire building was toppled with explosives … I’ve taken tons of photos and because

Cycling in Vlissingen-Oost
Today I cycled a bit through the industrial area of Vlissingen. A lot has changed. And before new installations can be built, the old one must first be safely demolished. EPZ’s coal-fired power plant has been out of operation for years and its chimney is now being demolished. Of all Thermphos buildings, only the skeleton

Dragonfly
Dragonfly was once the name of a band in Vlissingen. I thought of Rudy de Queljoe when I photographed this dragonfly in our garden. Canon 100-400 mm handheld funny, that seeing a small insect takes you so far back in your thoughts.

New Normal ?
I am clearly unable to cope with the new normal that the rising carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is bringing about. A few days 35 degrees Celsius in Vlissingen … and now I suffer from migraines. Almost all I did was sit in the shade and take pictures from there … and reading books …

There is no chaos in the natural world …
… but you’re only able to see the order after many years. Only then you can notice what you considered chaos, repeats itself every year with exactly the same colors and the same pattern. Unfortunately, it also takes many years for people to see and feel the slow change to a different climate.

Reading
“Educate yourself !” has been yelled a lot lately in the many demonstrations of the peace movement, black lives matter movement, climate change movement, etc, etc. So I started doing what I had planned for much longer … I started to read Marx’s “das Kapital” and now I’m busy with Piketty’s “Capital and Ideology”.

A sunny Sunday with Quest 552

RIP Peter Allen Greenbaum
We know him as Peter Green. He died in his sleep. In my youth I really appreciated his music and especially the single Oh Well part one with part two on the B-side was a favorite. How happy I was in the seventies, when I was able to record both sides of the 45 rpm
