Light of Emptiness

Silent shadows
push me to the light
Emptiness
whispers my name

'Light Of Emptiness' is an artwork in a four-part black and white project. In this project I photographed tree lanes as a charcoal like sketch.

I made this photo on a gray rainy day in May on a path between a canal and the fields, in the vicinity of the city of Nijmegen, The Netherlands.

At Daybreak

At daybreak
The tops of pine trees
hit by sunlight

Early in the morning, it's quiet after a night full of mysterious sounds. The first sunlight hits the tops of the pine trees, the forest awakes.

‘At Daybreak’ is a new artwork in the collection 'Secret Places‘.
I made it in the beautiful old forest ‘Vilsbøl Klitplantage’ near the coastal city of Klitmøller, North Jutland.

Autumn Sunset (8)

The sun has set, the water of the fjord rapidly takes on the cold color of the night. Thin cloud veils seem to swallow up the colors of the sunset, until it's dark.

Sunset over the dunes along the North Sea and the bay Krik Vig, part of the Limfjord.

Autumn Morning

Lost in the soft voices of the wind
as I wander through the fields
into the colors of this autumn morning

On a beautiful morning I wandered through the fields along the bay Krik Vig, part of the Limfjord. Except for the rustling of the wind and a single bird, it's quiet…

Autumn Sunset (7)

The sea winds are rising
Rushing sunset clouds
brought to darkness

A beautiful autumn evening, a strong sea breeze brings the clouds to the land, on their way to darkness.

Shrouded (3)

While I was trying to photograph a sunset before the sun was completely below the horizon, I realized that the beauty of light is often determined by how it is filtered, veiled or scattered. Here on earth the light is always filtered by something. The atmosphere, clouds, a canopy, mist… In fact, all these 'filters' make the sunlight much more visible, even almost touchable… Shrouded (3) is a new photo in a small series of a sunset, photographed in my abstract realistic style through high grass.

Where The Green Ants Dream

"You white men are lost. You don't understand the land. Too many silly questions.
Your presence on this earth will come to an end.
You have no sense. No purpose. No direction."

Where The Green Ants Dream (1984, Werner Herzog), Quote: Miliritbi (played by Wandjuk Marika)

Associating is a strange phenomenon. Sometimes a line from a song or poem comes straight into my mind when I see a photo I've made.
When my wife saw this photo yesterday, that I had made half an hour before, the first thing she said was: 'Where The Green Ants Dream'.

Images of that movie immediately came to my mind, and although this photo has no direct relationship to it, the title stuck in my head for this photo.

It fits perfectly for me...

Touching The Sky (2)

Exhausted waves
collapse after touching
the clear blue sky

The wind gets stronger and pushes the waves to greater heights before they break.

'Touching The Sky (2)' is a new photo in the collection 'Infinite Sea'.

I made this photo in the summer of 2017, standing on the beach along the North Sea near the hamlet Vangså. This area -including the beach and dunes- is part of the nature reserve National Park Thy in northwest Jutland, Denmark.
