The fourth and final post of my Dolomite trip back in September, times flies. They say save the best for last, the previous three post you can find here first - second - third, so I did and boy this was the best day of the week. Tre Cime di Lavaredo did not disappoint, however I expected or wished for a more spectacular sunset.
Read MoreThe first half of this bog is about Lago di Braies (Pragser Wildsee) and the idea to take multiple photos from different viewpoints. However the weather and the crowds (it’s a very populair place) made me decide to go and explore the forest around Cascate di Fanes. This turned out to be an interesting hike and climb!
Read MoreAfter the first days with mist and rain, this day seemed promising. It was cold, clear-ish sky and a good forecast. This meant, time for sunrise! The sunrise under Lagazuoi at Falzarego pass was the best option from the location where I stayed. Photographing Cinque Torri and the surrounding mountains.
Read MoreLet me start with saying, I love the mountains! Especially the Dolomites. The colours especially, the grey and pink massive monolith rocks with razor-sharp edges and the patterns within the mountains. Since then, I have been there more than once.
Read MoreI’ve been looking into different hiking trails in the forest area the Veluwe this time around, to capture wildlife and nature. A more forest type of photography. This was the first outing with the Fujinon 50-140F2.8 and the photos weren’t the primary goal, just a nice walk and getting to know the 50-140 and how it behaves.
Read MoreThis trip was the return gift from my father to me, as Ilse of Skye was for him. The cool thing is, Étretat is a very nice environment which you can reach by car in about 6 hours. So it is pretty accessible situated in Normandy France and a great place to do photography. It is also quite close to the D-Day beaches and it’s historical landmarks and the remains of war you will encounter.
Read MoreDuring summer I wanted to visit this icon forest. Photographing the forest early morning together with sunlight hitting the trees and ground, lightening the green mossy concrete ruins of this historical and heavily fought battle in this forest during the war.
Read MoreSo after the new kid in town, see previous blog, time for an early morning in the dunes and some of the meadows leading up to the dunes. I returned to the Amsterdamse waterleidingduinen, but still want to photograph the wisent in the other part of the dunes here in the Netherlands.
Read MoreThe Isle of Skye was on my wish list for a few years, however I never really explored the means to get there or the costs. I thought the only way to get there was by boat from The Netherlands to Scotland and then drive, to save costs and go with my own car. Still I thought this was a costly trip and therefor it did not materialise. So why now?
