August 2024
Looking back on August, it was mostly a month of missed opportunities, as I wasn’t able to clear my head to be focussed (or be loose) with my photography. So mostly snapshots here and there from my dog walks. And I submitted this photo to the monthly Framelines Street Assignment,
July 2024
July was July, all work, with a few shots that vaguely resemble a summer break. Oh, and I had submitted this photo for Framelines’ street assignment ‘Fill the Frame’.

Captures along the way in the month of May.
A dog walk in Baarn
Dog walking is as routine as it gets, at least five times a day. Practically, it means I hardly ever leave the house without at least one camera. Last Sunday, ready for a change of scenery, it was with two: a Fujfilm X100S with the Wide Conversion Lens (true 28mm)

The Barn Crew (2020)
At the end of 2020 a group of friends (and Milo in tow) came together for a much needed reunion. A tiny house called The Blues Barn, a fire place, an outdoor tub, beers, a guitar, board games, lots of reminiscing and projecting the future.
Jan (2022)
An impromptu man-at-work portrait series of Jan. Jan retired long ago, he is well into his 80’s, but he always wants to keep busy. Just at an easier pace. Which means he still contributes to the caretaking of our fort-office premises.
