Sunset over Kootwijkerzand

Together with Sander Grefte and his colleague Julien, I went to the dunes of Kootwijkerzand hoping for a spectacular sunset followed by some fantastic star gazing. Unfortunately neither happened. During sunset the clouds came in covering our own big star and later all the other stars.

I managed to shoot a short series of the sunset with the exposed roots of some trees caused by the moving dunes.

Deventer by night

Together with fellow photographers Frederik de Veer and Gerrit de Groot, I went recently to the Dutch town of Deventer. This town has a very rich trading history because of it’s location at the east bank of the river IJssel.

We started our photoshoot on the other side of the river and after it became dark we went with a small ferry into the historic city centre. There was some little rain and  that resulted in some nice reflections on the streets. We were so busy that obviously we missed the ferry back and we had to make a detour over the bridge to get back to our cars.

Hope you enjoy my series of Deventer by night.
