Long weekend in Germany

Germany a beautiful country with lost of contradictions. On the one hand it lives with tradition, charming villages, breathtaking nature and good wines. On the other hand it has the most hip and modern city's in the world. Germany is a bit like the big sister of Europe. When something/someone makes it in Germany it will make it in the rest of Europe. 

These photo's are taken in Koblenz, Tries Karden (where I stayed), Cochem and Trier.

Which is the more traditional side of Germany.

Crazy Fairies

These photo's are from a workshop I did with Ingrid Vekemans. She is an amazing photographer. She

knows how to bring character and ambiance in to a photo. Next to that she  is an amazing teacher and I loved following this workshop with her. We learned a lot of new techniques. Moving a camera in the right way gives an effect you never would have guessed. Being in the forrest (Meerdaalwoud) is always magical for me, I love nature. But you never know a 100% how to transport that magic in to a photo. Now I know. And sorry Harry Potter but this is real magic!

London Part II: Sightseeing

I can't visit a city without visiting the famous sites. It's the most touristy thing to do when visiting any city but you have to do it. Who doesn't want to see what all the fuss is about. Who doesn't like to be the annoying one and be abele to say I been there. I love it when I see a tv show and the tower bridge is on and I can say 'I saw that in real life'. For everybody else it's no fun, I know. Rolling their eyes and thinking 'here we go again'. But for the one who is saying it (and like everybody else, I like that one to be me) it's so much fun. Seeing a famous site in real life, brings it to life. It's not just a prop on a tv show or movie anymore. It's a real thing that makes the tv show or movie more real.

So a few months ago when I was in London (eye roll) I did exactly that. I went touristy, nothing wrong with that. I do love doing things that are not touristy and that show the real life in a city or country too, you learn more about the culture. But if you went on a trip and did only that, how can you make your friends jealous? That was a joke,  seriously, I'm not doing things to make my friends jealous, that would make me a bad friend, I love my friends. But I bet some of you agreed, right? It's double isn't it? You want to talk about the trip you made and show them photos but you don't want to make them jealous. In some cases talking about it makes them jealous and not talking about it is like you don't want to share things with them. So either way you are a bad friend. Solution: travel together.

I don't know how this blog became about friendship. Just love and cherish your friends. Don't make them jealous deliberately and be happy for each other.
So, I went sightseeing in London. I didn't want to press all of my London photos in one blog, I just took too much photos. That's way this one is part II. Ok, enough bad writing, here are my best photos.

 



 

 

Changing of the guards, Buckingham Palace, could see a thing

A little to late, but I got a photo of the guards
