Thank you Fons, very good memories from that day. Lucent Danstheater, wasn't it? I'm very happy you -and Jan- got to see it.

  The effect is stronger in black and white, I think. My first reaction was to read the image as a whole, believing the both were contemporary and I was seeing people running through a window or open space. It really works! Great dynamics and contrast in the elements: running people and still bikes.

Thanks Thomas.

The photo dates the end of October 1944 when Tilburg was liberated in WW II. People are running towards the cityhall were the imprisoned mayor Van de Mortel returned to his city.
