Now and then I will share some photos from the area where I live. I live in North of Holland. It's about 40 kilometers from our capital Amsterdam (NL). I guess that my readers would like to know a bit more about me as a blogger (the person behind this blog, the area where I live ......).
This week I went by bike to the Dutch place Egmond-Binnen to pick up a delivered package. The area is quite country-sided with open fields with huge trees and houses. Lots of space with cows, goats and sheeps grazing, really peaceful ...... While cycling I came across this field with yellow flowers and a large farmhouse. There was a beautiful sky with lots of clouds. Of course I could not resist to take a quick photo with my mobile phone. Greetings from Irene. p.s. Earlier I published more photos, shot by me SEE HERE

Sail Amsterdam 2025: Een fantastisch optreden van de Beun Brass Band

Graag wil ik vandaag de Beun Brass Band uit Delft in de picture zetten ........ Vorige week ben ik naar Sail Amsterdam 2025 geweest en kwam daar deze geweldige brass band tegen op het muziekpodium Kop van Java. Daar ik binnenkort met een studie Videografie start besloot ik ter plekke alvast wat foto's en video's te maken. Het is een fantastische band! De dynamiek spetterde er vanaf. De foto's en video's geven goed de sfeer weer van die middag. Ik heb contact gehad met 1 van de bandleden (Karan), zie hieronder. Meer informatie over deze inspirerende band treft u hieronder aan.

Fotografie: Alkmaar Light Festival 2022 - 1 groot lichtspektakel (Deel 2)
Het 1e weekend nadat de wintertijd is ingegaan veranderde Alkmaar één groot lichtspektakel. Met lichtshows op gebouwen, muziek, live theater en bijzondere lichtobjecten in straatjes en op pleinen beleefde je de stad zoals je dat niet eerder deed. Dit vond plaats op 4 en 5 november 2022. Er waren vele highlights te zien en te ervaren o.a. een spectaculaire projectie op de prachtige Ringersfabriek, een fantastische videoshow op de Waagtoren, een muzikaal lichtkunstwerk met 1848 relais uit 300 sloopauto’s en bewegende regendruppels die door de Laurentiuskerk zweefden gecombineerd met klassieke muziek. Hierbij voeg ik een aantal foto's toe ter inspiratie. Heb genoten van deze avondwandeling. Deel 1 postte ik al eerder, ZIE HIER

Met lichtshows op gebouwen, muziek, live theater en bijzondere lichtobjecten in straatjes en op pleinen beleefde je de stad zoals je dat niet eerder deed. Dit vond plaats op 4 en 5 november 2022. Eén van de hoogtepunten van het festival bevond zich in de Laurentiuskerk. Daar zweefden bewegende regendruppels door de kerk en werd er klassieke muziek gespeeld. Hierbij voeg ik een paar foto's toe van de verlichte kerk. Wat zag dat er spectaculair uit! Dit is de link naar DEEL 2 Ik hoop dat je geinspireerd bent ......
