Fortified port

This is a perfect moment!  Love the stage-like shot (I know this is not staged!)

Sunflowers thinking of Vincent

Z6 - 24mm f/1.8S

Yes, it is really nice.  When I translated the interview to Tony Bennett at a hotel in Tokyo, there was a large glass with the sunflowers just like your image.  When I said that reminded me of Vincent, he said that he was just reading the correspondences between Vincent and Theo, and told me that he was impressed by Theo's letters.  Tony Bennett studied paintings and and music at the art school.

Thanks Akira. Vincent van Gogh, a favourite painter of mine, didnt sell any work during his short life, how different from today.
