Hatertse vennen

I’m delighted to be part of a group of photographers called ‘Schoorl groep’. You can find us also on Facebook.

This morning we went to de Hatertse vennen, nearby the city of Nijmegen. It is a moor-like area with heather and fens.

It was a stunning morning, fog was covering the area, but that was soon gone after a beautiful sunrise.

Obviously I took a lot of pictures but I hope the selection below will give you a good idea how it was.

Friday the 13th

Yesterday, Friday the 13th, I went to the Posbank. Unlike the most of the Netherlands, it has some hills, covered with purple heather. This morning I was treated with a stunning sunrise while a fog was coming in. For some maybe haunting, not for me. It was just amazing.

In this blog just a selection of all the pictures I took.

Thanks for watching.

Rotterdam

For my birthday Jacqui took me for a weekend to Rotterdam. A great weekend it was. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, the architecture, the Dutch photography museum, the harbour, some restaurants and of course some pubs.

I didn’t have all my gear with me, only my 18-200mm zoom and a 8mm fish-eye.

Check below some pictures during our stay.
