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!

Nature will always find a way....as they so cleverly (is that even an english word i wonder???) put it in "Jurassic Park. Beautiful picture, and even though i can only see ever so little of that river im pretty convinced it is absolutely gorgeous to canout (spellcheck again...darn the swedish schoolsystem...sigh) on. Anywhoo...i should probably get back to work instead of embarrassing myself...and my old english-teachers....any further. Have a swell weekend JC!!! #:O)

Incredible and impressive this piece of Tree. HIs layers and the forms are fantastic to see. Mother Nature is marvelous, and every creature who disapeare let the place to another... Organisation in the chaos ! A lovely and very interesting shot Jan-Carel, thank you to be our "eye" when you discover a new place ! Have a wonderful week-end my friend. Hugs. V

How strange?! We are both having a "tree" day. beautiful textures in an ordered chaos.

It is amazing what bird droppings can do. It looks a very unforgiving/infertile slope, yet life clings on for a moment of its life. Cool shot!!

Interesting how whorls of bark and folds of sediment find the same plastic patterns. "Life imitates art" hardly sums up the consequence.

Fascinating rock layers; The rock looks very strong and untouched by the water. I don't think it will break that easily..

Ya, probably so. That water looks pretty darned cold right now.... and deep in that area. Strange how those rocks are like that. I wonder what type they are?
