Welcome to my website.
I am a 55 year old amature wildlife and nature photographer based in Wenduine, a small coastal town along the Belgian
Northsea shore, and I specialise in native species found in my area.
Nature and wildlife have been an interest since my youth and what started with a walk through the fields, observing the natural surroundings,
binoculars in one hand and fieldguide in the other, turned into a hobby when I got my first traditional camera (Canon AE-1). Capturing what I
saw on film now became the aim, an expensive challenge as I found out.
So, some years ago, like many before me, I switched from traditional photography to its digital counterpart when I bought my first Nikon
digital camera (Nikon D100). Don't ask me why I changed from Canon to Nikon as there is no particular reason for this move.
What I do know is that much more was possible in the digital world. My hobby became a passion, the sky seemed the limit.
Huge amounts of photos were taken and........stacked away on the harddrive of my PC.
If only I could show some of my work to others, to photography and nature fans or just to anyone who shares my interests.
The time was now right to create my own website which is designed for browsing through my galleries of wildlife and nature pictures.
Most pictures are of wildlife in my local area, some of them I shot during travels abroad. One general rule however, is that wildlife means
animals living in the wild and all photos on this site are taken in its natural habitat. Great care has been taken not to disturb the animals
and their natural surrounding.
I plan to keep adding photos to this site at regular intervals so it can grow in the years to come.
I hope you enjoy watching these photos as much as I did making them.
