Went to the The Hague Japanese garden yesterday, on the grayest day of the week. It did bring out all the greens, but also threw off the iphone’s auto white balance.

Back from my early morning #hike in the local #NationalPark (yes, it is!) Hollandse Duinen… this time a cool but sunny morning… springy almost!

Close up of starry moss like thingies (here speaks the expert) in a morning glow and some specks of dew Top-down view of green starry moss thingies with proper frozen dew… an also frozen rabbit turdlet lurks in the corner An overview of a dune valley in the upcoming morning glow, from atop a higher dune… a wet path leading through the valley toward the horizon Close-up of dew-covered moss and small pebbles in sunlight. The pebbles happen to be the eroded top of an anti-tank wall that’s a remaining part of the Atlantikwall

Some impressions from a short hike around the Stalheim Hotel… interesting history too, if you’re interested enough to websearch… #travel #hiking #norway

Typical scandinavian red barn before a large rock wall on the other side of the ravine. One firn tree next to the barn Tree on a small mount with oddly a set of mossy stone stairs leadin up to it. If you’re shooting your gothy album cover, photograph your female lead here Downstream look at a fast whitewater stream, almost waterfall, from a bridge downward. A leaning tree over the water hanging in the foreground A view of the large red Stalheim hotel on an outlook over the valley, under a foreboding dark overcast sky

The #JapaneseGarden in The Hague is closed again. I managed to squeeze in a brief visit on Friday.

I do wonder if limiting the opening to a few weeks in spring and autumn really works to preserve the garden, or whether it would be better to open it all year round to avoid the twice yearly stampede.

There are Japanese gardens in many major cities that are part of city life and are rarely crowded!

Did a #hike in the Dutch coastal dunes this morning, after a hiatus of many weeks. The temperature was, as most of these weeks, around freezing so early on there was some opportunity for frosty pics… #hiking #Frostodon #Mosstodon #PortraitLandscapes #outdoors
