Some time before sunrise
Let us keep it blue. A very early-morning shot of the “Beresteinse vaart”, the old canal that connects ´s-Graveland with Hilversum. Once upon the time it was the main traffic artery for the industrial village of Hilversum, with its booming textile and tapestry industry, linking it. via ´s-Graveland and Weesp with Amsterdam. Today you will find there only a lonely canoe, and not at this time of morning.

It is the best way of using a sleepless morning hour. As I suffer from morning sleeplessness from time to time, I have discovered this and experience it as a special chance now. Especially as it offers the possiblities of taking unusual pictures.
