The last week of my summer holidays, I enjoyed a visit to the Apenheul. The weather was perfect! Not too much sun and not too hot. In retrospect, it was a day when everything worked out. I only see that when I get home, unfortunately. My preferred eye with which I look through the viewfinder READ MORE

Pink
Rose, not my favorite color. But when it comes to flowers and birds, it becomes something else. That’s why I’m sharing a collection of pink photos. Have fun!
Cuteness overload!
A day at Apenheul today. It was wonderful. Perfect weather and the monkeys cooperated. I came home late this afternoon with a lot of pictures. I saw the youngest monkey. A few hours old red howler monkey. And I saw the smallest monkeys. At least, I think they are the smallest. Even though they are READ MORE
Black and white stripes
Zebras in black and white. So black and white stripes. I have edited these photos to make a new triptych for my living room. At the moment, there are 3 photos of hydrangeas hanging in that spot. Everyone still likes them, but I’m a bit tired of them myself. I want something different. That’s why READ MORE
Primates blog
A small collection of photos of primates. Sometimes already shared in another edit. Others now for the first time. Have fun!
A different perspective

Colorful feathers
Time for color! After a lot of rain and gray clouds, we can use that. Today was supposed to be a warm beautiful day. It’s dry and warm, but that’s about it. If you see this blog and you have visited my website before, you will see that it has a new layout. Simple, sleek, READ MORE
Negative space
Negative space? What’d that? It doesn’t sound very nice! It’s not too bad. It’s a composition option in photography. All photos I share have negative space. Part of the image is “blank”. This way you can draw more attention to the subject. There are even more composition rules that apply to these photos. The rule READ MORE
By-catch
Whether I visit a zoo is mainly determined by the primates and/or big cats I can see there. Those are my favourite subjects. But I do photograph every animal. And then I actually find almost everything fun and interesting. Smaller animals can always be seen in every zoo. They often have meerkats, prairie dogs and READ MORE
Apenheul Photography: Capturing Enchanting Ape Portraits
The title and text below are taken directly from chat.openai. Another experiment with AI, followed by 6 portraits that I made in the Apenheul on Wednesday. The text is not quite my style, but quite educational 😉 The Apenheul is a unique animal park where you can experience apes up close. Capturing ape portraits READ MORE
