Sky watch Friday Electricity

Remember the reflection of the angel in last Saturdays Photo Hunt picture?
Here she is in all her glory.
She's one of the statues you'll see on top of the houses if you visit Antwerp.
I thought she would make a great Sky Watch picture.
I'll show you more pictures of Antwerp in next Sundays Weekly Winners.

to see beautiful skies from around the world.

But then I feel it move me
Like a burning deep inside
Something bursting me wide open
Impossible to hide
And suddenly I'm flying
Flying like a bird
Like Electricity, electricity
Sparks inside of me
And I'm free, I'm free

Electricity sparks inside of me
And I'm free, I'm free

Oh, I'm free

(Lyrics by Elton John.)

Sepia Scenes

With all my heart.
Peace.



Sepia Scenes is a new photo meme created by Mary the teach.

She wants us to post any picture we want, just as long as it's sepia.
If you're not sure how to do it
just go on over to her blog and she will teach you.
Each week she gives us some interesting suggestions.



I found this feather near the pond with the geese in Lillo.
I made a macro shot, and then transferred it to sepia
I used the "time machine" on my Correll Paint Shop Pro x12

Ruby Tuesday Elephant Parade

This is one of the elephants of the Elephant Parade.
(click to read more about this project)
Over 70 elephants, painted by famous
(and not so famous) artists were on exhibition in Antwerp.
They will be auctioned next week,
and the money will go to projects protecting the Asian elephant.
I went on a photo walk last Tuesday and discovered this one.
I thought he would make a great Ruby.

Macro Monday Yellow Ribbons

Some of the last flowers before winter.


I love how the petals of this flower look like fringed ribbons,
I only saw this when I viewed this picture on my computer screen.
I guess that's the power of macro shots,
they show you things you'd never ever notice with the bare eye.


Now this one really popped out for me.
I just love the shadows on it.
Please click on them to enlarge them.

Weekly Winners Lillo revisited ...

Remember Lillo?
I have blogged about this favourite place of mine before.

The pond with the geese.


The museum.
The river Schelde.

Distant industry.


The marina




... and the boats.


And of course ....
I always have to have a picture with a reflection ...


This is it for this week.
It's been almost a year since I joined in for the first time,
and I would not want to miss it for the world!

Photo Hunt "Blue"

This week's theme for Photo Hunt is "blue".
A blue sky is something to be grateful for if you live in Belgium,
that's why I chose this one. It's a rather boring building in Antwerp,
but I liked how the blue sky and the buildings across the street reflect in it.
