This morning started with no destination. Just a full battery on the bike. A camera clicked onto my camera bag… And enough coffee to convince myself I knew where I was going. I didn’t. About an hour later I found myself standing on a tiny…
One of my first photos after getting an apartment in Sittard. This used to be my view from the window, and to this day I think it was one of the best views of St. Peter’s Church and the Basilica of Our Lady of the…
While driving over one of the mountain passes in the French Alps, we got caught in an incredible storm. Luckily, it only lasted a few minutes. It was one of those intense mountain downpours that make you wonder if it’ll ever stop. A few minutes…
You get almost forced into photography when you’re in Český Krumlov.Seriously. You walk around one corner… there’s another photo. Cross the bridge… another shot. Look up… another one. It feels like the whole town was designed by a photographer. I remember walking around with my…
Shot from Cesky Krumlov. After visiting the old town for a big chunk of the day I ended up by the Vltava river… Some incredible scenery down there.
While riding from Kollenberg to Parkbos Millen and on toward Germany, the sun came up in full glory. A beautiful sunrise. I stopped, took a moment, and grabbed a few photos. Here’s one of them.
I tried a vertical panorama this time. Stacked 6 images vertically, and this is what came out of it. You won’t see all the details here because I had to resize the image, but on a big screen it really shines. Anyway… Enjoy Friday
Shot from the woods in Zavada, the Czech Republic A few days ago I got my hands on some new black & white Lightroom presets, and I’ve been testing them ever since. It’s interesting how a single click can turn a dull, uninspiring shot into…
Sunrise on the Kollenberg.
I don’t really remember where I took this photo. All I remember is the silhouette… and that soft, orange morning glow. Sometimes that’s all that sticks. Not the place. Not the details. Just the feeling.
Great morning mountain bike ride around the Maas river. And perfect Sunday morning. Paradise for taking photos… the fog difused the light perfectly. Everything looked like I was in a movie.
Early morning just outside of Limbricht. I took this photo to remember how good the morning felt. One of those you know you’ll want to come back to later. I rode my mountain bike into the nearby woods, set up a small camp, made a…
Frozen, fresh, beautiful and peaceful is exactly what I need right now. Shot from Kollenberg, Sittard
Putstraat in Sittard getting ready for carnaval.
As a kid, January was my favourite month of the year because of the snow we used to get in Karviná — deep, heavy powder that made every day feel like pure fun. Build bunkers. Build snowmen. Build slides and igloos. Endless play until it…
Morning shot from Sanderbout, Sittard A bridge crossing over the railway tracks.
The sky is on fire, but everything else is still. Empty paths. Light reflecting off the windows. People already at work. Already deep into their 9–5s. And I’m here… Grateful for this moment. Grateful that I’m able to stand here, walk these empty paths, and…
Am I really seeing what’s in front of me? I ask myself that a lot when I’m out with the camera.Not just looking — actually seeing. Photography slows me down. Forces me to stop and notice what’s right there. This time it was the sun.…
“Light is the key. Orson Welles said it. Light is the key.”— James Nachtwey And there you have it. From the master himself. Light really is the key to any photograph… but not all light is equal. I just love getting slammed right in the…
I know nothing is ever perfect. There’s always something that could be better. But this morning was an exception. I just loved the light. Cold, crisp air filled with soft golden tones, creating beautiful reflections on the frozen pond around Kasteel Limbricht. Everything worked. The…
