Springtime isn’t only for us people here in Holland to enjoy. It is also for the likes of him (or her) to come out and feast on others, literally.
I took this photo last year around the same time. I was at the back of the house trying to find a subject when this small spider caught my attention. It probably took me a good ten minutes just to get a few shots because he was so sensitive to my movements that he kept on crawling away. My patience won, or he just gave up because he really was pretty hungry.

Sabi nga nila, ‘kung walang tubig, walang buhay’ , tamang katotohanan naman di ba? Alisan ng tubig ang mundo, may mabubuhay kaya dito? Nakakatawa nga dahil ayaw ko sumakay sa barko dahil hindi ako marunong lumnagoy kaya takot ako sa tubig. Maisip ko lang na ‘baka’ lumubog ang barkong sasakyan ko ay tumitindig na balahibo ko sa pangitain na ito pero sa kabilang dako, mas malaki ang takot ko na mawalan ng malinis na tubig na maiinom sa araw-araw!
Pinagsama-sama ko sa akdang ito ang mga larawang nababagay sa tema ngayong Huwebes na ito. Sana magustuhan ninyo.
People say without water, there is no life quite accurate right? Can we survive if water is removed from our planet? I find it ridiculous because I am afraid to ride a ship because if it sinks, well, I can’t swim -hence my fear of water. But on the other hand, without water to drink is unthinkable!
I compiled photos which I think are suitable for this Thursday theme. I hope you enjoy them.
** ice photos I took last night ..my husband was joking that our kitchen is really versatile, that it’s also my ‘ studio .’
**last Sunday by the haven, this is our city. If you notice it’s cloudy…a typical Dutch weather.
** a fountain in the middle of our city. During Fridays and Saturdays, this fountain is quiet because a market is erected on the spot on the said days. How I wish we often get a blue sky. Natural light is what I miss the most that’s why I don’t shoot much outdoors :(
** This was taken last year. I saw this crab while I was walking on the beach of Hua Hin in Thailand . This is my most favorite beach in Thailand even though it’s not sandy white and even hard to swim in it. It was because for years while I was still working in Thailand, here was where I spent countless hours to clear my head, and also the place where I learned to catch crabs and gather mussels.
** the same beach in Thailand, I saw this guy fishing. Minus the fishing rod, kagaya ng mamang ito may bitbit din ako lagi na plastic bag kapag nanghuhuli ng talangka…ang saya! Pero sadyang kakambal ko na yata ang ulap, wala ring araw na sumisinag ng kunan ko ito.
**dito naman sa video (extra lamang po itong video na ito..lamang ay tubig din ang paksa) na aking kinunan noong nakaraang taon (ang modelo ay ang aking kaibigan), ang aming tour guide ay nagsabing kung saan tuturo ang metal any naroroon ang ‘water source’ sa ilalim ng lupa:
** and lastly, my dog ‘watering’ the pole that says: pwede pakawalan ang mga aso dito, pwede din damputin ang kanilang poopoo.
Sa huling larawan ay wala naman sana akong na-offend.

Garden snail or Helix aspersa, which I found this morning attached to a wood. I’m not quite sure what that thing is behind it, it wasn’t soft but hard. This little fellow was escaping the rising sun. Time to go back to where it’s dark.
Over the weekend we had activities which I really planned on posting photos for this week’s WS. But at the last minute I decided to rather post my first ever Iris (pic) that bloomed in our garden. As always, the first bloom during spring time is what I’m always waiting for but due to the number of garden snails, I thought we would not have any Irises this year. The past year we scattered powder on the ground to kill the snails and slugs. But no matter how destructive these are, we really don’t want to kill them but just forbid them from leaving eaten plants and flowers behind.
This year’s powder (we’re using a different one, environmentally and pet friendly) seems to be working fine because I don’t see any slime indicating their visit. Rather I saw just a lone snail eating a pit that fell from a plant (this is my other WS entry, by the way)
Here’s my first Iris bloom before the rain almost destroyed it.
