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!

Wonderful icy image! Yes, that is strange, I think more of the water is exposed to the cold when it hits the air so it ices up. Very pretty, you won't see THAT in south Florida! :)

I am so thrilled to see this, I was hoping you might have an icicle capture to upload! I love to see icicles and the really thick frozen runs of water, it reminds me of a trip up the mountain from Denver to Vail! Have a great Christmas and New Year!

Now you got me going? Also, why would a lake freeze only at the top and not at the bottom? Maybe its the density of the water at different levels. An interesting picture and question you have. Let us know the answer. Aloha

Brrr...that's cold! (lol) Let me tell you a true story that happened to me on one winter hike in the Smoky Mountains. There is this place that has a huge overhang. I look up and see these giant icicles hanging down. As I am looking I see this huge one break off and come right down toward us. I yell for everyone to stop, and the icicle crashes a few feet in front of the group! I thanked God that he warned me in time to warn the others...people I didn't know...Humbling experience of the power of God in our lives...
