A day trip to a friend in Utrecht. When I go to a city, nine times out of ten I take the camera. There is plenty to see in Utrecht around Central Station. Many modern buildings. I like to photograph modern architecture. That is quite different from photographing animals, flowers, etc. In fact, I don’t READ MORE

No more lock down
Wednesday it was possible again. Finally on the road again, taking pictures. On the first day I went straight to the Orchideeënhoeve. Enjoy the colours, smells, sounds and warmth. A day in the tropics while it was cold and unpleasant outside. Below I share photos of that day.
Beautiful bugs
Currently, I am reorganizing and cleaning up my photos.It comes down to looking at all the photos. That I give the folders names, so that I can find the photos. But also that I throw away a lot of photos. That’s a lot of work. At the moment, I have 135,542 photos over the last READ MORE
Last visit to the Apenheul this season
Last Friday was still a bit late-summer. The temperature was pleasant and the weather was beautiful. Perfect for a last visit to the Apenheul After Sunday the park will be closed until the spring of 2022. I loved it. With the beautiful fall colors as a background, I made a (portrait) photo of as many READ MORE
Clearcutting on the Lemelerberg
For the first time in years I decided to photograph the nature around me again. That idea came too late for the heather to bloom. I photographed some purple tufts. But it’s not too late for mushrooms. I don’t know much about them and can’t name them. But you can always take a photo. October READ MORE
Visiting gnome country
Yesterday afternoon I went out to photograph autumn. Looking for beautifully colored leaves, pine cones, acorns and especially mushrooms. It wenst to Haarle, the Sprengenberg. That is a beautiful part of the Sallandse Heuvelrug. When I parked the car I thought: ir is so busy! I don’t like that at all, but luckily it wasn’t READ MORE
Party in the driveway
Mid-September, a beautiful day. The sun is shining and it is lovely outside. I come home by car and park the car near the hedge in the driveway. I open the car door and then I see it. There’s a party in the hedge. And it’s busy. Everything flies, buzzes and flutters. From very small READ MORE
City walk Deventer
A blog with very different photos than you, my audience, are used to from me. Something very different from animals. That’s because I’ve been taking a lot of different photos lately. I like to try new things. I bought the lenses for it a long time ago. But it never came to pass. In recent READ MORE
Kiango
Monday afternoon I went to the Apenheul. Enjoy the beautiful weather for a while. Kiango is really the “main attraction” of the Apeheul for me. As far as you can say about such a cute little thing. It is such a beautiful sight to see the little one develop. One moment he is cute, the READ MORE
Insects at Sion Abbey
My previous blog was about butterflies. Where you can photograph butterflies, you are also guaranteed to find insects. I don’t know much about them, but I find them impressive. The last photo is of a beautiful beetle. Potato farmers are not happy at the sight of the Colorado potato beetle. I do, I think he’s READ MORE
