It was a lovely day today and we decided to visit the Arnhem Open Air Museum. It is a collection of Dutch buildings through the ages, all carefully taken apart and re-assembled on the museum site. The buildings range from windmills to farms to town houses to train stations and everything in...
Well, that must be some sort of record... I had never seen one before, but I guess I must be unique in that respect...:) So to avoid any waiting I suggest Bill tries to get another (and slightly more difficult challenge) up as soon as possible, so we can still finish by next Tuesday, as scheduled...
Apologies for being a day late, but today I went out and try to take a few pictures that would hopefully keep you guessing a little. I have no idea if this is a difficult one or not, I for sure probably would not recognise it if I had not seen it live today...:)
Each member gets one guess...
I have to admit it was my wife who helped me here.. I had looked at it on my phone, and later looked again on the tablet. Could still not make much of it so I turned the tablet to my wife who was sitting a few meters away and asked her what it was... Almost immediately she told me it was some...
It made no sense on my phone, but now looking at it from a few meters away on my tablet it seems to be some lcd or led screen from some old digital watch, and it is 1.46 pm...:)
Same goes for me yes, I like the shore but somehow always seem to end up there without a camera... Maybe it is just my subconscious trying to warn me against sand and salt in the camera, it can get very windy on our shores....
This is actually a park close to where I live, the Philips de Jongh Park in Eindhoven. It used to be private grounds belonging to the Philips family (the ones who started the big Electronics company), but these days it is a public park, with a nice little pub in the middle as well...:)
We had a small spell of winter here just after Christmas, so I went for a walk with the GR to capture some of the winter-wonderland, which is getting more and more rare for The Netherlands in the last years. It was already close to sunset and the sky turned a dark blue almost, but the GR seemed...
Just tried to attach some photos to a new thread I wanted to start (photos were uploaded to my gallery just before) and I get the same message as well...
Great shots Ray! I was in NC a few years ago, travelling from NY to the Florida Keys, a fantastic trip with great memories and even though I did not visit this particular area (I believe) I would love to go back someday.
Strangely enough it has been heavily discounted in The Netherlands for quite some time already, with current lowest price of 399 euro (around 490 USD). The GR on the other hand remains pretty constant in price over here.
Yeah, some of these churches and buildings just shout out with wealth and riches, a result I guess of the times when Austria was one of the most powerful and richest empires in Europe. Nobody wanted to be outdone so every new church or palace had to be bigger and more opulent... Good stuff for...
I'm trying to find this Zen State myself..:) have slowly reduced my camera's to only 2 at the moment (Ricoh GR and Fuji X-E1 with only the kitlens), and am trying to convince myself that 2 cameras is all I need. The problem though is that I find myself looking on this site and visiting sites...
I spent a few days in Vienna last week and took the GR only. It was a little challenging due to the fixed focal length of course but I find you adjust and start to look a little differently at the world (or Vienna in this case). It is a beautiful city with great architecture, good food, friendly...
I live in the city of Eindhoven in The Netherlands, which is often referred to as The City of LIght, due to the fact that it is the birthplace of the electronics company Philips, that started over a hundred years ago as a producer of lightbulbs, and still today is a major player in (industrial)...
