On our way to the Meiji Shrine near the Harajuku Station I saw this couple walking slowly over a wet bridge. The light was filtered by the fresh green leafs. If you ever are in Tokyo on a Sunday this is an area where you can really see many aspects of the Japanese society and have some fun as well.

The small village of “Oost”, which means “east”, in Dutch. For more photos in this series have a look at my gallery of photographs of the island of Texel.

The photo was taken in National Park “Dunes of Texel” in the Netherlands. This area is called “de Slufter”. It was on a foggy morning. The sun was trying to clear the sea fog and the light was beautiful. More information about the Texel Dunes National Park and the “De Slufter” can be found on this Wikipedia page.

Recently I attended a workshop of Jay Maisel in New York called “Always carry a camera”. I loved it. It was my first time in NYC. On the last night of the workshop we stood on the roof the building of Jay Maisel. The sun had just set and most of the other students already were drinking wine in the kitchen below. The photo below is the view looking to lower Manhattan. If you ever get the chance to follow a workshop of Jay Maisel, do it.
I am busy creating an album about my week in New York. First make selection of a couple of photos out of the pile of thousands of I took.
Arriving in New York City the old fashion way is wonderful. I took the ferry to Staten Island and saw this beautiful view of Manhattan on a warm and humid Saturday morning.
