The tower is Delft’s Oude Kerk (old church, from the 13th & 14th centuries depending which part) as seen from the Prinsenhof, original location of the House of Orange which now bases itself in the Hague as the seat of NL’s heads of state. Below are various shots from Delft’s city center as well as the Royal Delft (porcelain) museum.
No idea what those three lights that just showed up in the sky to the east of me one recent evening are. They weren’t moving in the way airplanes do, so your guess is as good as mine.
This year’s edition of the light festival opened a few days ago, and I took these photos of one beautiful entry during my bike ride to the office the prior week, as the various light sculptures were being installed. Eager to see the rest as soon as I can get out for a cruise :-).
(so much world, so little time....)
