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 like happy surprises like the sighting a beautiful woman or the profound conclusion to a difficult mathematical derivation. I utterly abhor collisons and accidents. So it is I love to baffle the mind readers and spys by being only myself in the moment where I am utterly boring to the lover of chaos.

what a beautiful and most interesting image, Jan-Carel!!! i love looking at it and getting lost in those swirls and designs! it's like looking up into clouds and picking out all the shapes! i see a sea horse and doggie in here! also a rabbit! i love the textures, and you're absolutely right...it does look like stone in some places! your thoughts are quite fascinating! it makes me think of how there's a fine line between "genius" and "insanity." i would like to hear more of your thoughts about those societies that you mentioned. anyway, i find your image to be most beautiful and dreamy, and your commentary is quite thought provoking. The combination makes for a very interesting exploration of parallels between sand formations and society formations!! i love how you bridged the two!!! high 5s!!!!
