Land, Air and Sea
Class field trip to Simonstad Naval base and Ysterplaat air force base. Cool enough, we got to ride in boats & planes that can kill!
I'm not supplying any kind of mood barometer for this trip. I was too ill to have emotions. But it was fun to take pictures:

Navy recruits warm-up before jumping into the freezing water, completing an obstacle course, getting out of the water, running, more swimming, more running. It's a sea dog's life.

He is headed for the obstacle course. He will save my life someday.


This recruit was receiving personal attention from the drill sergeant, probably for a bad attitude. The sarge ordered him to dive for seashells.

Flying in a DC-10, a WW2 era aircraft. These rotors make for great photos.


Emmie of the flies.
I love taking graphical pictures, but would like to hear your opinion on this type of picture. Interesting or no?

I found three flowers at the docks.



I do like graphical pictures to some extent. I often find it fascinating to see just a piece of something we usually take for granted, now artfully captured and made immortal. But I like them in smallish doses. I think.
Those sea dogs are yummy, LOL!

Interesting - yes. The clarity and simplicity of the pictures is great - especially liked the barbed wire shot.

I love your photographs - I'm going to steal them and make postcards to sell in the book shop (I'm kidding).
