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

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!

One must be a bird watcher to see a chough. The blackbirds have flown. Suddenly , one wonders how high up do birds populate mountains. Is there something like timber line? I have only seen walking flapping birds like ptarmigans up on a glacier edge.

What a sweet little sunbather she is!! And she let you so close! Another fabulous capture of this black beauty, Jan-Carel! The rest of ya'all can move on, but I stay behind a few minutes for time is a continuum. Time is here. Time is now. It is to be experienced in moments. I stay to absorb a few more moments of joy that gazing upon this bird brings me. "But what minutes! Count them by sensation, and not by calendars, and each moment is a day." ~Benjamin Disraeli

It's a beautiful capture! The blue background looks so nice here... :)) Love it.

Nice photo, but the shadow on the left is very disturbing. It pulls the eye away from the bird. Perhaps you should change the cropping ?

The chough stands out gorgeously against that blue background! A fantastic capture, Jan-Carel!
