Mixed roses and some green from the garden.
Although it is summer, it feels like autumn.
Some color brightens up my mood.

Living the past
What I love about old buildings is the past that they have.
These photos are made by me in 2007 in the Sphinx fabric in Maastricht.
A past before us,
And the fact that we can use the building again
in a different way, or
in the same way.
A past of people walking around in the building
just like we walk in it.
Or hard working people,
we can only imagine when we close our eyes.
But the mystical thing about old buildings are the doors and windows.
It are the same window and same door.
We walk through them,
they walked through them
We look through them and see the surrounding,
they looked through them and saw the surrounding,
The difference is the surrounding.
We can only imagine what they saw
and what they were feeling.
This is what I like about old buildings to feel the past
of life that was in the building,
being there were someone else was.

Miracle
Yesterday I saw a Macroglossum stellatarum, in Dutch the Kolibrievlinder (kolibrie butterfly?).
I was surprised to see this butterfly for the first time in my life.
They are apparently more common.
But this does not change the miracle.
