Summer Stock Sunday, Another Brick in the Wall


We don't need no education


We dont need no thought control










No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone

Hey! Teachers!
Leave them kids alone!


All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.


"Wrong, Do it again!"


"If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding.
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"



"You! Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"

    Wow Jientje, these are fabulous! I love the way you move back and forth between gritty and whimsical, and your niece is a delightful model. I wish you lived closer, I'd have you take photos of my kids!

    Thanks so much for sharing this for Summer Stock (I put your link up for you by the way, since you're off galavanting around Provence this week).

    I love that song

    she is a wonderful actress, far more than a model

    I always use song titles for my posts, but WOW! I love the way you "photographed" that song. The depths of the photos are incredible. I couldn't stop staring at the details. Your niece is a perfect model!

    Oh, Jientje, what a glorious collection of photos. You and Paulien will cherish these forever! She is a beautiful young woman already! I love the photo of her reflection in the mirror where the reflection is in color and the rest is sepia. Genius!!

    When did we lose the ability to interact naturally with the camera as your niece so aptly does? I've been trying to find just one photo where I don't look like I'm in pain or totally foolish, no luck. As a photographer, how much direction do you provide for your subjects? Or do you just let them "be" and wait for these perfect shots? Whatever your approach, it works. These photos are remarkable.

    My daughter Paulien is a natural! She loves the camera and ever since she was a child, she loved being taken photographs of, so...
    So very unlike her mother... although I must say it has improved lately! I don't look like a total fool anymore on every picture!
    Very nice photoshoot!
    Big hug,
    Your little sister

    What a beautiful young lady she is. The photos are stunning and the music adds so much to this. She is a natural for this.

    Extremely interesting and fun to look at. The girl is just gorgeous and I can guess she'll go far if she decides to model or act!

    Love the juxtaposition of your beautifu young niece in white against the old crumbling building.

    Beautiful! Always enjoy your photos so very much. How is France? We are going to Paris next spring- give me tips if you have any. Perhaps we should go to Provence.
