Mostly photography, with the occasional philosophical contemplation

A simple thing

This morning the train was having a bit of delay. So wasn’t exactly the way i was planning to start my week. Shows that things not always (almost never lol) go my way.
And i guess that’s good. Cause i had a beautiful meeting in the next train. As i was letting other people pass, i moved a little bit backwards in the train compartment.
Standing on this new spot, at first i didn’t see the guide dog. But when i looked down i saw his two front legs and in my thoughts i said hello to the dog.
And before i knew it, she laid her face onto my shoe. Such a simple gesture but it gave me fuel for the rest of the day.
As i had to move on, i gently moved my feet and gave her a little rub on the back of her head before i moved out of the train.

The simple things in life can mean a lot 🙂

Going Forth

by Leave a comment

For now a small break from the writing with images as i notice i like to share some photos too. This one was taken back in 2013. It was very impressive to stand in front of the Forth railway bridge near Edinburgh back in 2013. Such an amazing sight. And then to think it’s over a century old. I tried to create a bit of a mood in this picture. Really worked with the light and the contrast here, to emphasize the bridge and the clouds.

Rumbling Skies

Completely surrounded by the force of nature
I can only stand and look in awe
As the lightning is followed by loud rumbling
A car alarm goes off in the distance
Triggered by the impact of the blasts
Glad I’m standing safe inside
Cause no matter how amazing the spectacle
Lightning can strike with all of its might

Mega Mix klein

Found out about Nik software a few weeks ago on a website and have given it a try. Today i found out about silver line efex pro.. and i love it 🙂 What a perfect way to play with photographs. At least, that’s what i think. This is an image taken from my window. This large thing used for cement is standing across the street. Found the name pretty awesome, so i took an image during sunset. But i felt this image could use a little extra, so i did give it a tiny bit of post-editing 😉

Moving Sunset

Ernstig bewerkt

I was in the mood today for some editing. This image is totally different from the original. In the front were some trees standing and on the right there was a bit of reflection from the window of the train i was traveling in while making this image. So i played with the image, added blur and changed quite a few settings before i realized the original image was almost gone. Only in the middle there still remains a part of the original image. As the train was moving, the trees began to blur. This was the part which helped me to start this small project. Very abstract and dark, but i think it looks pretty cool 🙂

Giggling

These young giggling girls
Have interesting ways of
Communicating

Rather than speaking
Screaming seems to be the norm.
Can my ears handle?

Yet it’s quite funny
What these youngsters talk about;
Exaggerating
