Vlaggetjesdag in Scheveningen.
Tried out my Fujifilm X-T1 with 35mm F1.4 lens.
Worked nicely. Now all I have to do is take a decent photo with it.

Graffiti
As a club project with the title “graffiti”, I challenged myself to take some night shots of some near-by street art (sic). These are some of the results. I used exposures of around 10 to 15 seconds whilst my beautiful assistant (aka the wife) shone a 5 euro LED strip-lamp along parts of the wall. I also fired my flash in some shots to highlight the wall furthest from the camera.
Strandwalfestival Rijswijk
10th to 12th September was the Strandwalfestival in Rijswijk.
This annual fesival is the town’s excuse to allow all the local bands and clubs and societies to show what they can do. It’s also a great opportunity for some street photography. I took my 70-300mm Canon lens and Metz flash set to HSS (High speed synchronisation) to see what I could do.
The Hague
The weather was better than predicted but nevertheless it was dull and rather cold. Still, I did promise to go into The Hague to let my wife practice with the Canon G10. It is a bit like trying to teach your wife to drive. One mention of “aperture priority” and I get the evil eye. Still between the clouds and the coffee and cake we both managed to snap a shot or two. Here’s my effort for the day.
