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!

I appreciate this shot, Jan-Carel. The poppies are unusual up here in Scotland. Less sun, I suppose. The colour and wildness of the place reminds me of a meadow near Balloch Castle, at the south end of Loch Lomomd. At a completely different tangent, the dead trees are like my youngest son's broken comb, and the blue-green trees beyond, his 'uncombed hair look' that took him 15 minutes and 25g of hair gel to realise!

What a contrast between blue and red! Very good shot! Hm, would like to see this in real.
