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!

Amazing how something as ordinary as that can look soooo beautiful captured at the right moment. The light and shadows in this one is just perfect!!! And by the way the snowcrystals are glittering it also makes it look kinda cold. Awesome texture on the snow as well. PERFECT CAPTURE!!! Have a great weekend #:o)

Very good shot of this little corner of nature, Jan-Carel :) I like the reflections of the sun on the snow and in the water :)) Excellent shot!

We are out of the cold now thank goodness, but it's good to look at what we had. Excellent!

It raises the question, "In life, what is the purpose of snow?" There is the visible dimension seen from close-up here. There is the feel. There is the absorption of radiation that seems to suck up mammal heat. Then there is the joy of invention that leads to snow skis and toboggans.

Nice interplay of light and shadow !

This is a gorgeous close up of the stream and snow at just the right time of day. I see a little figure with a snout in there that reminds me of a creature from the paintings of Heironymous Bosch. :]

Great POV on this pretty mountain stream! The deep blanket of snow hardly seems disturbed. Nicely done!
