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!

Be careful, they look like they can fall any second. Excellent. Aloha

That is truly fantastic. Very abstract to say the least, thanks for explaining what it was, LOL. Have a great sunday #:o)

You are walking through this nightmare tunnel?!! This turns into a very creepy photo after reading the explanation. Great idea.

Steely daggers, the dank mood cannot overcome the interest in the lights play.

Looks like long, creepy fingers grabbing at you from the dark. Nicely done!

funny, for someone who doesn't care for abstract images, you sure do take a lot of them, jan-carel!!!!!! :) i think you like them more than you realize!!!! Very cool! Those icicles look like fireworks to me...you know...how when they start to fall to the ground! How innovative and experimental of you to do this, Dr. Vierbergen!!! Children, do NOT attempt to do this at home!!! It is HIGHLY dangerous!!!!! shooting in the dark should ONLY be done by professionals!!!! LOL! I'm sorry...don't know what's getting into me. i see fireworks, and i become nuts!!!! Excellent abstraction!!!

Technically very difficult to take a shot in the dark but you managed to do it very well.
