I took a lot of pictures myself on this special, silent trip. Actually, only nature photos, because that remains a continuous achievement of creation. I walked alone, this trip. In Grave I had a wonderful day with my husband, who walked the route in the opposite direction. Then alone again. No phone (not voluntarily, it broke). Nice stops. In Deest the camera + booklet. A free cup of tea. Outside wintry showers in April. What will I photograph? Oh well, I’ll come across it. Just before Nijmegen, on the dike near Weurt, I see it. The quiet, lonely boat in a lake. Behind it again the busy city. Work, people, life. Just a moment of solitude, silence.
