The story

Something totally different today: on this Pentecost Sunday, I went out to photograph a living statues championship using a new film simulation recipe, in the beautiful and cozy little city of Thorn. Of course, I got pulled over by a cop – you can see him in the pictures!

Koningsdag 👑, Breda 🇳🇱

Koningsdag or King's Day is a national holiday in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Celebrated on 27 April (26 April if the 27th is a Sunday), the date marks the birth of King Willem-Alexander. When the Dutch monarch is female, the holiday is known as Koninginnedag or Queen's Day and, under Queen Beatrix until 2013, was celebrated on 30 April.

Breda is a city and municipality in the southern part of the Netherlands, located in the province of North Brabant. The name derived from brede Aa and refers to the confluence of the rivers Mark and Aa.

The story

For this year’s edition of King’s Day, I visited Breda: a sun-filled day with nice people and way-too-expensive drinks! Unfortunately, I used the silent electronic shutter instead of the mechanical one, which caused banding in many of the pictures of the band under the spotlights – so a lot of photos didn’t pass quality control. Better luck next time!
