There is a challenge in capturing the ordinary. The things that are common to us. We often find it hard to frame things we see on a daily bases. We travel a lot to make beautiful photographs elsewhere, while we get blind for the captivating moments of our daily lives. I selected this photograph as an example of moments and light that can trigger us. “Ordinary can become extraordinary.“

Where to go? I am thinking about one or two themes for my photography. I started a new blog as an experiment with a theme called “My home place“. All that work is still conceptual and the selection might change from time to time. But maybe I depart from there and introduce cycling as a theme too. I am still in doubt though. “Some sign is missing!”
