Deze foto is met gevaar voor eigen leven gemaakt met een onderwatercamera in de Vecht. Terwijl I. het twee meter lange dier in bedwang hield, kon Doarmer het plaatje schieten. Meer beelden volgen binnenkort op deze weblog.

Het is intussen al weer 3 jaar geleden dat Gregory Peck overleed.
At dawn the ridge emerges massed and dun In wild purple of the glow'ring sun, Smouldering through spouts of drifting smoke that shroud The menacing scarred slope; and, one by one, Tanks creep and topple forward to the wire. The barrage roars and lifts. Then, clumsily bowed With bombs and guns and shovels and battle-gear, Men jostle and climb to meet the bristling fire. Lines of grey, muttering faces, masked with fear, They leave their trenches, going over the top, While time ticks blank and busy on their wrists, And hope, with furtive eyes and grappling fists, Flounders in mud. O Jesus, make it stop!

Siegfried Sassoon - Attack
At dawn the ridge emerges massed and dun
In wild purple of the glow'ring sun,
Smouldering through spouts of drifting smoke that shroud
The menacing scarred slope; and, one by one,
Tanks creep and topple forward to the wire.
The barrage roars and lifts. Then, clumsily bowed
With bombs and guns and shovels and battle-gear,
Men jostle and climb to meet the bristling fire.
Lines of grey, muttering faces, masked with fear,
They leave their trenches, going over the top,
While time ticks blank and busy on their wrists,
And hope, with furtive eyes and grappling fists,
Flounders in mud. O Jesus, make it stop!
Prachtig zoals hier de aanval van een "grote modderkruiper" beschreven wordt, indrukwekkend "flounders in mud"
