Everywhere people with camera's find their way in this world to make their shots. I like the art of taking realistic pictures, because it provides a way to show how I experience this world. It is a way for other people to look through my eyes.Nature ... exists primarily for her face, her look, her appeals to the heart and the imaginationGeorge MacDonaldJan-Carel Vierbergen
Picture courtesy of Ruut WegmanBIOIt is all in the family: love for hiking in the nature. Since my childhood I'm used to walk with father, brothers, cousins, etc., and take pictures (Minolta X-700 with 28-70 mm and 100-300 mm zoom) of what I see. I grew up in Ede (The Netherlands), studied Electrical Engineering in Eindhoven and I am working now as Coordinator e-learning at the Christelijke Hogeschool Ede (http://www.che.nl) where I implement digital assessments for students and assist students in DTP and creating websites.
Since I know little about photographing as well as computer science it was not difficult to find ways for putting images on the web. The only thing to look for now is to find ways for showing the slides in a convenient way. I tried already something at http://www.che.nl/users/jcv (Dutch only, click at Dia's van de natuur in Nederland en de Alpen), but this platform provides good means to share my pictures with others.
I hope you enjoy this!

If I have to choose one... the right one. But both are superb !

Since you asked, I prefer the second photo. I feel, that in this case, the "in focus" background adds to the composition of this lovely capture. And the winner is .................

You are so clever Jan-Carel!! We new photographers truly appreciate this lesson you are showing! To choose only one...hmmmm..lol I like them BOTH but for different reasons! The first shows more detail on the flowers and those little droplets of rain or dew. The second is so beautiful too though with the wonderful colors and waterfalls! I guess I would choose the one on the right overall but both are excellent! VV***
Richardphotos
the second is my favorite as I prefer well focused photos but soft focus has it's place also. the flowers with water makes for an excellent subject
logiloglu

ZotKonijn

Cette composition est magnifique ! j'aime beaucoup ! excellent travail !

i definitely prefer the one on the right. with the long exposure, you captured the flowing water so perfectly...like silk! The one on the right is a far superior image IMHO because not only do you have that incredible waterfall background, but you also have those GORGEOUS flowers!!!! The first one is an ok image. the one on the right...OUTSTANDING!!! nice to see the comparisons! Excellent shooting!!!!

Both have their merit, but I think I prefer the second and the background doesn't distract me from the flowers...so well captured! Aloha!

The deep view on the right just looks better to me, Jan-Carel. The flowers are great and the rocky stream is a great background. Regards, John.

Both have it's own charme! I'm with Dave... me too, I think I prefer the second and the background doesn't distract me from the flowers.

ralfy
I would prefer the right one with more depth...great shots!
Saurav
Excellent photography. Very good use of depth of field.
lejimi
Difficult question ! On the right, water movement is very good bur, flowers are very difficult to see. They melt with the backgroung. So I would say "left" setting to photograph the flowers, "right" setting if the subject is the water...
deannemart
I prefer the one on the right. I really like the feel of the water cascading over the rocks :)

love the romantic feel of the second version... beautiful!
