SCENERY

Scenery

To be very honest, I’m not much of a scenery photographer.
As soon as I see a glimpse of an animal, I know, I feel immediately what I want and how I want it.
Seeing alandscape…I start to wonder:
Should I choose a frog or bird’s-eye view?
Do I pick a tele lens or a wide-angle?
Do I use a wide aperture or better not?
Should I change place or just wait for better light?
All that thinking is not conducive to good photos.

Always take the weather with you

I do like capturing weather though.
Give me some misty polders, heavy snow showers, earth-shaking thunderstorm, sight blinding rain fall,a slightly foggy sunrise,a beautifully clouded sundown, water-scape reflections, a perfect rainbow or that typically hazy autumn mood and my thinking is quickly replaced by enthusiastic clicking.
So, I just always take the watcher with me.

We used to have quite long winter times. Weeks, or even months when we went ice skating every day after school and when the snow lasted so long, you could easily get used to it. The past years, winter comes and go within a blink of the eye. Quite a challenge for a photographer to seize her;

These modern winters might be extremely short,still love them to bits anyway

Winter Meets Autumn

Lost in the Light

I found my white Christmas tree, somewhere in a dark, cold, wintry forest…

Standing out or blending in…?

These countless huge pines can make you feel so…small… As if these old wise trees are bending over, to see what this tiny creature is doing there, lying in the snow..
