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!

A poignant image Jan-Carel.I understand how you feel,but I really have to agree with Denger.The only thing that is constant,is that there will always be change.If I go back to my gallery 6 months ago,more than half of those people are gone...the only difference is no one noticed...they just left quietly...

The sand is so wonderful, it would be a shame to put a footprint on it. The nice thing about it is that the wind will cover it up and start a new pattern. Lovely shot.

I also have noticed the disappearance of quite a few people here. It is a sad thing and I totally understand how you feel. Beautiful image.

A stunning image of your beautiful island Jan-Carel! Love those beautiful designs and the sand looks even whiter and finer in this picture!! I just adore walking on beaches like this in my bare feet. :-) Thank you for bringing us all smiles even when you are so sad. (((Hugs))) I hope your friends return soon! But..if they don't, you still have us... :-) V

I too feel your pain..I wish you a speedy recovery, as we all feel a sense of loss. I hope that the rest of us will be able to carry on the legacy that was left by some of the old timers here who have departed. Change is a good thing sometimes, but not without it's price...Stay well my friend! Aloha!

I love the lines in the sand. It's slowly moving downhill. Here, as in life, gravity always wins.
