Profile
I am a retired historian, living in the Netherlands, and practising photography since my youth, but especially since going digital in 2004.
Mottos:
“There is so much beautiful light in the world.” (Wilhem Raabe)
“Colours are the smile of nature.” (William Holman Hunt)
The gallery contains mainly pictures from the Netherlands. Some from my various trips to the Baltic Sea will be added from time to time.
For your convenience you can find the pictures in separate subgroups:
