Seeing the world upside down

This picture was shot on the Holterberg (between Deventer and Enschede in Holland) during a nice walk in nature. We brought a crystal boll to do some experimental shooting. Funny thing is… you see the world upside down through the ball. That morning started great! Great weather, great atmosphere, great company and a huge felling…

Small lake on the Clingendael Estate

An eerie misty morning

How a misty misery morning lead to a nice shot! This picture was shot in my hometown The Hague in October 2015. We visited the estate Clingendael and strolled some more kilometers through the park to shoot some pictures from the forest in the mist. That day, there was a thick mist over The Netherlands…

A view from the Alpsee

Forest tranquility from the lake

It is said not to shoot with your camera right towards the sun… This picture (please click for the full screen version of the picture!) was shot during a holiday in Austria when we visited Schloss Neuschwanstein just north of the border in Germany in August 2014. When we visited the castle of Neuschwanstein and…
