When the night falls, some spots in Madrid are changing into a kind of fairy tale scenery. This first image is made at the Plaza de Cibeles, a square with a neo-classical complex of marble sculptures with fountains that has become an iconic symbol for the city of Madrid.

The offices of the former Dutch brewery „De Drie Hoefijzers” was opened in 1927, 85 years ago. The style was typical and rich, inspired by the School of The Hague and Art Déco. Since last year, this monumental building houses offices for some smaller companies. Both the appearance of the building as the classification, attire and furnishings are intact and preserved as such. The property is one of the rarest examples of rich industrial offices for the 1929 crisis in The Netherlands. It is also important as a historical building, both visually and functionally part of the complex of the brewery. Please find the images below.

Antwerp Central Station is a marvelous building, combining very modern and pretty old architecture. This is a small series of black and white symmetrical compositions taken in that railway station.

Night in Venice is quite special. All the canals, boats floating around, leaving traces of light when using long shutter speeds with your camera.

The Dutch Prime Minister resides in a very, very small office in The Hague. I reckon it must be worlds smallest executive office. However, the location compensates the size as the Prime Minister is overlooking the waters of the Hofvijver from his octagonal turret. The office is called Torentje (Little Tower), almost 700 years old. This years winter provided me with unique opportunities to make pictures of the Torentje and its location. Most of the images were shot using HDR (meaning that each image is being put together from seven differently exposed shots).

On one of the old versions of this website, there was a page with the title „Lions Fight”. Even today there are still people visiting that page. Reason for me now to incorporate this topic in this blog. Quite some time ago, in 2005, I was on safari in the South African Kruger Park. We then experienced the probably most spectacular event of our lives: two groups of lions fighting for a dead giraffe. I took some pictures (with my first SLR-camera, I now wish I had had the one I have now), but my then thirteen year old daughter managed to make a short movie with a small point and shoot camera (in our car there was a man with a high quality video camera. Just five minutes before the thrilling lions fight, he ran out of power … lesson for everybody, always carry enough spare batteries!). The movie was put on YouTube, and is now approaching a milestone: almost 100.000 views. This is the movie, when you click on „read more”, you’ll see the pictures.
