Hope full of doubts..

Hope full of doubts.. 15 comments

It has been a very busy time for me, started a new job and had difficulties foccusing on both that,family and photography, just weren’t happy with my pictures anymore…
And then there was May… and a week with a lot of photo opportunities 😀
This one was taken on Liberation Day, 5th of May in Wageningen(Netherlands)during the parade …It’s an image that I can’t seem to forget, never forget

I wasn’t sure to post the coloured version aswell but as that was my image to start with here it is…

I was there for that parade a few years ago with my son’s school. It is an experience I will never forget that moved me to tears.

  - Yes, I’m very glad my son got to experience it. He was actually in the parade and got the Dutch people in the crowd singing the Canadian National Anthem. It was awesome!!

A very effective, moving picture – I especially like the black and white version. Lest we forget.

Fijn dat je weer wat foto’s kon schieten, Nandi. Ik hoop dat je plezier hebt in je nieuwe werk en dat je een goed evenwicht kunt vinden tussen je aandachts- en interessegebieden.

Groeten Henk

- Het valt nog niet mee om er een balans in te vinden , maar ik doe beiden met veel plezier, ben weer onder de mensen om vervolgens na een dag werken er stiekum met de camera op uit trekken, al is het maar een half uurtje, meer vraag ik niet..;-)
  
  groetjes Nandi

Both evoke different feelings, the first one speaks, “It’s me can you see me. The second says can you see me in the crowd.

- Showed this picture and placed it on many media, and it is nice to see how this speaks in so many different ways to people

You have captured a very pensive expression. I think I prefer the mood of the monochrome version.
