Today I had to photograph my bad mood away :P. That is why I went to Groenrijk Raalte with the camera. I’m allowed to take pictures there and enjoy going there. They always have so many beautiful flowers. I have of course photographed flowers. And where there are flowers, there are insects. Wonderful to look READ MORE

Smartphone Zinnea
Like every Saturday morning I was with my mother for a cup of coffee this morning. After that I always do the shopping for the weekend. I did not have a camera with me. My mother had a beautiful bunch of Zinneas on the table. Of course, photos had to be made. So I used READ MORE
The news paper
Had to try something new with my photos and Photoshop. It was a time-consuming search. 3 photos in this blog. I wanted more, but I did not succeed. Why that is, you can read below. The idea was to do something digital with newspapers. It seemed a nice idea to me and I thought it READ MORE
Poke the bear
Playing with Photoshop and a picture of a brown bear taken in Dierenpark Amersfoort. This gray old bear looks very dangerous. I don’t exactly know what he was doing. But for a long time he looked at the public like this. Of course I only had one reaction: click! A nice photo to play with READ MORE
Say aah
Sunday afternoon, warm weather, time to play with Photoshop. A while ago I made a picture of two pelicans in the fly cage at Dierenpark Amersfoort. I thought it was a funny photo because it immediately reminded me of saying aah at the doctor. I have made a few different edits. The first is the READ MORE

Goal is a beautiful image. This action is called Abstract impressions. If you’ve used it, your image is a big READ MORE
Flowers have company
We have a heat wave in the Netherlands. I am not a fan of very high temperatures. It is vacation, so I give myself a tropical roster. Getting up early (around 5:30 a.m.), afternoon siesta with afternoon nap and to bed late at night. It is wonderful to go outside early with the camera. Yesterday READ MORE
Alstroemeria
This morning I got up early to go to Fortmond. One of my favorite places along the IJssel. A little disappointed I came home again. I was hoping to shoot some butterflies, but there were only a few of them and I could not take pictures of them. Everything is so dry and brown. If READ MORE
Black and white stripes
Vacation time, so time for playing with Photoshop and and photos of my favorite animals. In addition to primates and large birds, the big cats also belong to my favorite subjects. They can look very sweet and calm and very fierce and threatening. Lately I did not do a lot of “on black” edits. Cats READ MORE
