Spring Narcissus

Spring Narcissus, sprouting out of the earth. 

Spring is coming, and how better can you see that when we do have some very nice Narcissus coming up, still inside the house but soonish as well outside. 


At least I know that I'll be planting them outside if they have passed their time indoors. 
Have a great weekend,

Fresh snow snow

 

Snow snow snow..

 

 

The first snow from the year have fallen again and just in time to let everyone enjoy the beautiful landscape.. 

It's as well the time to that everyone is uploading new pics from beautiful winter landscapes on Flickr, Like me. But I also just wanted to give you guys an idea on what kind of Winter Photography you can have..  so I just wanted to give my opinions and shots to share with you.. 

Both are close ups, what I prefer when shooting in industry zones, cause they create their own entourage.. 
what do you think??

Winter and snow shooting, close up or on a distance?? panoramic.. ??

Have a great shooting time..

Panoramic Landscape Bruges at Night

Panoramic Landscape Bruges

Bruges is one the eldest cities in Europe, and it's straight stunning that they have been able to keep the spirit of the old city for such a long time. 
This panoramic landscape picture of Bruges is taken at night with the beautiful city light in the central market. 
It is in the centre of Bruges with plenty of bars and restaurants.. 

I hope that you guys like this night panoramic landscape from Bruges and let me know in the comments what you think..

French Pharmacies

 

French Pharmacies

Just saw the other day this picture in my library and every time I'm always intrigued. 

I don't know, but it gives me always a very warm feeling to see one. It looks like one out of the old cartoons where it still is like it used to be during the beginning of the 1900... 
So I would like to introduce you this edited photo from a french pharmacy, made in a cartoonish style image. 

Let me know what you think, 

Cheers Jaap Willem

Amsterdam Street Images

Amsterdam Street Images.
The following images are a few images I took during the car-free Sunday in September in Amsterdam.

It's really nice to see that the people took their living room to the street to make a statement about the use of the streets.
True, normally the weather ain't that good that it's possible but still, it's great. I think it's as well about the spirit in Amsterdam that when there's something going on, the whole city center is enjoying the party. Anyone who have been at a Queensday knows how the party can be.

So I would like to invite you guys to this small selection of edited images from Amsterdam and the living room on the streets. At the end we always have the blue cushion to sit on, isn't?? To enjoy the beautiful sight over the Canals.

If you are in Amsterdam, just try to stroll around and enjoy the spirit of the city, you'll be positively surprised.

Typical Amsterdam City landscape

Typical Amsterdam city center landscape.

So, about 2 weeks ago we went for a weekend to Amsterdam and it's always really nice to to stroll around in the city center taste the ambiance of the city.
Even though it was only for a day, the other day we went to the Zaanstreek, we had a great luck with the weather and the fact there where very few people around.
This is the moment I took this picture from one of the Grachten, canals, with the typical view from Amsterdam with the bikes on the bridges, the canals and boats..
Hope you guys enjoys this picture and stay updated for some new images from Amsterdam I have up my sleeve :) somewhere ;)

Images from Zaanse Schans and Haarlem

 

These are a few images I've taken while being for a weekend in Zaandam and Haarlem. 
Thankfully there where plenty of opportunities to take plenty of pictures and these are the first batch from them. 

The first Picture is from an Old green door within a windmill. It's one of the few windmills which are still active and accessible. 

The other picture is from the same Windmill but from a bit further away.. 

Third photo is from me myself and I ;)

The last one is a HDR picture from an old building within the center square from Haarlem. This is a HDR night picture. 

Hope you guys enjoy these pictures..
