I may have posted this picture before, but not the one that followed this love birds heart shaped shadow. It's almost as if the pigeons made a 'we rock' shadow in the second one. Made in a London park in May 2013.

Thursday Challenge: Flowers
It's been a while since I've participated with the Thursday Challenge due to personal circomstances but I will try to post one or two photos every week from now on.
This week's challenge: FLOWERS (All Kinds, All Colors,...)
The Passion Flower that I planted 3 years ago in my garden next to the Clematis didn't bloom at all. Untill this year. And now I'm getting a few gorgeous flowers every day.

If it quacks like a duck...
I'm sorry that I haven't been more on this blog. And yes I'm writing in English now. I have a lot of English readers from Twitter among other things and most of us Dutch can read/speak English so I'm hoping they don't mind the English.
It's been a while but that's due to some personal issues.
I am hoping I can pick it up surely but slowly however.
Not sure about the Thursday challenges though, I'm not taking photos that much anymore. But I will try.
When my mum had her 70 year old birthday my sis and I gave her nearly a dozen day trips to be filled in at her convenience. That's a nice way to take the camera along and make pictures.
The last one was a trip to a town where we used to live as kids (sis and I ) Mum and sis hadn't been there in ages and wanted to see the town again. A lovely old little town it still is.
I will post the photos of the town later but first these photos of ducks: they were following sis around who was feeding them so I could take pictures.

Keukenhof
Afgelopen week ben ik voor het eerst van mijn leven in de Keukenhof geweest. Wat een geweldige plek! Prachtig!
Mijn moeder was 70 geworden en zus en ik hadden haar een aantal dagjes uit cadeau gedaan waaronder de Keukenhof. Dagtocht nr 1 van nog veel te volgen tochtjes: Hier alvast een paar van de ruim 200 foto's die ik gemaakt heb:

Zonsondergang
Op het moment heb ik niet veel tijd meer voor mijn blogs. Of maak ik niet veel tijd meer voor mijn blogs beter gezegd. Ik doe andere dingen dan fotograferen, of bloggen. Ik schrijf veel en ik doe iets anders als ik mijn laptop aan heb. Maar gisteren waren we een met de trein naar mijn moeder geweest en op de terugweg kleurde de lucht prachtig oranje/geel. Gelukkig had ik wel mijn Iphone met camera bij de hand:

Braakbal
Van de week was er paniek in de tuin. Een buizerd was heen en weer aan het vliegen, heg in, heg uit. De mussenpopulatie was in de stress. Denk je veilig in je heg te zitten, komt er zo'n groot beest je huis binnen! Nu lukte dat maar ten dele met zijn grote vleugels maar kennelijk lukte het hem toch want even later zat hij te smikkelen bovenop de heg met een mus tussen zijn poten. Al eerder had ik veertjes op de grond zien liggen en weet dat aan buurtkatten maar dat zal dezelfde buizerd geweest zijn. Mijn zoon had ook al een braakbal zien liggen, en ja hoor vanmorgen zag ik hem ook. Nooit geweten dat roofvogels ook braakballen produceerden maar ergens wel logisch...

Thursday Challenge: Electricity
The Thursday Challenge of today:
"ELECTRICITY" (Sparks, Wires, Lights, Transmission Towers,...)
The thing that came to mind was the time we were on holliday in 2010 in France and I saw a beautiful bird of prey sitting on a transmission tower. It was probably still a young bird.

Thursday Challenge: Books
This Thursday Challenge is all about Books: "BOOKS" (Library, School, Old, Journals, Notebooks,...)
A life without books, is unconceivable to me. Books is life, life is books. One wall in my livingroom is filled with books. I buy a great deal of books, old and new. I love reading. In Dutch but also in English. Old books smell so lovely!
Inside of that copy of Shakespeare's complete works are lovely drawings. This one of the Merchant of Venice.

Thursday Challenge: Cold
This Thursday Challenge is about:
"COLD" (Ice, Snow, Windy, Weather, Beverages,...)
Not much cold over here in the Netherlands as of yet, but luckily we have the archive on Flickr to get pics from...
This was quite a contrast, these colourful ducks (Mandarin ducks) in the cold snow and ice, some years ago.
