It's a quiet evening in December in Delfshaven, a part of Rotterdam that survived the 1940 bombing. Buildings and ships reflect in Voorhaven, one of the two canals of this picturesque area. Central in the image is the Pilgrim Fathers Church, from which in 1620 the Pilgrim Fathers left for America. To the left of it we see brewery De Pelgrim and on the extreme left the house of Bag Carriers Guild. In the background, behind the bridge, is malt milt De Distilleerketel (The Distillery Pot)

I'm a photographer, designer and visual artist based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The Lowlands by the Northsea inspire me tremendously.The grandness of their landscapes, the intimacy of their towns. The canals and rivers, the harbours and boats, the windmills, churches and houses. The ever changing skies over polders and floodplains. For centuries, these lands have inspired painters like Van Ruisdael, Vermeer, Mesdag and Maris. I spend many a day exploring the Netherlands by foot or bike, capturing the beauty of the urban and rural scenery with my camera. This online gallery proudly shows some of my favorite images made on those expeditions. When I'm not out there making photographs, I'm either making artist impressions...
