Emotion in Brugge!

Hello Treklens
Here we have emotion! To me it was!
We see here our most valued!! TL member :

Fons Lescouhier ~

Fons is still very active in TL and presents us often fantastic photo's and all that with an age a little over 80!
Fons is a VERY friendly .. warm hearted man with a good eye for the right photo and Vandana2923 here at the side of Fons, had also great admiration for the whereabouts of Fons..

They share art like ..pottery..clay modeling .. and of course phtography.

Those two we see here, talked about many topics and in the end when Fons and charming partner Lien had to go,
we realy felt a little sad .

Fons: we all hope to see you again someday.

Regards;
John T

Hello friend Tulip! This is a nice portrait of those superb photographers :) I love those expressions caught. The picture seems a little dark to me but maybe I need another monitor :) Well done with interesting notes. Your friends look wonderful!

Nice double portrait here John.
I think the shadows here brings a bit too much of darkness to photo, but faces are clearly visible.

You and Hans have put a lot of efford in it to make it an unforgetable week for Vassilis, his Tanya and for Vandana!

It's a tad dark on their faces, John. A little selective brightening might have been better. For the rest of the picture the subdued light works well. Taken in the beguinage of Bruges, I guess?
Thanks for organising the trip. Ann & I were glad we could meet you and your companions.

Hello there, John - I like the emotional content of this image. It appears a bit dark on my (old) screen, but it is a joy to see these two lovely photographers, Vandana and Fons, getting on so well. Thank you for sharing it with us! Cordelia :)))
PS: Am glad you have returned to continue the trip with TL!

Hi Mr. JT,

Sommige foto's zijn niet in puntjes uit te drukken.
Wat een heerlijke lieve sfeer hier!
Twee fantastische mensen samen 'op de kiek'

Hello John - They look ready to shoot right back - don't let the warm smiles fool you, I can see they are drawing a bead on you within second of you shooting them!
I bet you're having loads of fun! Right on!
So they would know how to 'throw' a pot?
Cheers
Otto

Erg leuk dat je Fons en Vandana op de foto hebt gezet ! Fons ziet er heel anders uit dan ik had gedacht. Veeeeel knapper. ;-)
De foto laat goed zien hoe leuk fotografie is.
groeten,
Joop!

Hi John,
Fantastic portrait of the colleagues. We wish Fons another 80 very healthy years. It's great someone over 80 is able to learn new technique like digital photography and internet...
Frame's a bit thick by my opinion, but otherwise an emotional and noteworthy image. Congratulations. Your Friend, László

COOL ............... !

Bonjour John,
Combien d´histoires s´abritent sous votre photo et sous les deux autres de vos amis.
Beau et ravissant registre
