  • Cut down fir tree simplicity

    Cut down fir tree simplicity I like taking photographs of simple stuff, like this cutdown fir tree in a small nature reserve in Limburg (Weert, Tungelerwallen). Beauty in simplicity. A huge red ant walking across it would make it better:) close,cut,fir,limburg,needles,netherlands,pine,tree,tungelerwallen,weert

  • Yes, I am dead sure

    Yes, I am dead sure Beauty in death. This firn is a fine example of finesse in the afterlife. The raw yet subtle power of dusk' plasma radiance enlights the last upward pointing finger in a lizards' habitat. Geotagged,The Netherlands,dawn,dead,firn,lizard,netherlands,reserve

  • A matchstick in a moment in time

    A matchstick in a moment in time One moment a tree, sturdy and eternal, yet only a breath away from the end in a fierce storm. The meaning of life is sometimes thin all of a sudden. But hey, just look at the raw power invested in breaking its wood. Wow. Geotagged,Pinus sylvestris,Scots Pine,The Netherlands

  • Driftwood

    Driftwood Just a piece of very old wood, a broken tree. Driftwood it was, but on the shore for a while. It always intrigues me. Geotagged

  • Willow at the waterfront

    Willow at the waterfront A lonely knot,  bathing in the sunlight of dusk to come.
In a while it will be naked again, 
man made baskets flowing
from its stem to farmers going.

  • Famous Ash

    Famous Ash Or so spoke an old man in an old car, hailing us as we photographed some cows just a corner away. There, he said, was the famous Ash tree, often used in Dales and Yorkshire flyers. That, he says, is the photo that sells. And, just aah, wow, he's right. What a sight. Fraxinus excelsior,Geotagged,HDR,United Kingdom,ash,dales,famous,yorkshire

Formations in the skies

Autumn in disguise

In a darkening evening suddenly a few last rays pierce a small patch of oak in a Belgian forest.  Belgium,English oakQuercus robur,Geotagged,Quercus robur,The Netherlands

  • Polarized petals of autumn

    Polarized petals of autumn Wow, you should have seen this simplicity in beauty, such a warm light on a cold day. I shot this one with a polariser for a bit of power in colours, but you bet in real life it was even more so. Two days later it was as bare as a rock. That's autumn for you.
