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!

Oh no! Out of Swiss chocolate??? That just won't do! Lucky for me i have a hidden stash in my backpack! greedily pull one out, tears off wrapper, and enjoys. Don't give that look guys! I got plenty more. See? Help yourself! 2-D shakes head nuh uh! i'm right here and seeing/feeling/hearing all this...and WITHOUT 3D glasses! I feel the joy of this place!Spinning with arms out I put my hands on these mountains and feel the life inside. It moves through me like electricity, a jolt...a rush...takes my breath away! Put your hands right here on these rocks and feel. Close your eyes. Feel the joy rush thru u! hold on on tight...may knock you down...because it WILL take your breath away! I feel the divine presence of God here...unmistakeable! You show a world of miracles and I am blessed to experience them!!!! deep breaths Wondrous, awe-inspiring captures, Jan-Carel! High-5! Feeling the pulsating energy of these rocks in my big feet, I start my ascent! Yippee!

Thanks Jan-Carel for this other breathtaking landscape! And you are right : nobody can feel through a photo what you really get by being on that place. So beautiful!

Looking at the stratification, the complex folding of even a few lines is seen. The real thing seems more real after viewing some Terragen. Two lights hammer home the splendor.

LOL, well I dont like chocolate,so no worry.Im just along for the view, and what a view it is. Thats just something,those colors are just so wonderful to see. Excellent capture and job as always.
tesla
Xlent work!!!Thanks for sharing
AgentMai
I agree with you in everyway....even down to the chocolate!!! I have to say that your photos, and your way with words are a close second to being up on the mountains...it's also safer lol. I love the second photo (cuz of the purple), but seeing the difference in a space of a few hours is remarkable. Amazing captures =)

Yes, you summed up the feelings of a serious photographer. We feel, often, very inadequate to convey what we see, feel and breathe. The pictures are only substitutes. However, in a couple of pictures you have transcended that limitation and managed to convey the true splendour. Bravo!

Lovely contrasting images! A wonderfully presented shot of a lovely mountain.
