I added comments on every image to offer some background. Any observation from your side: more than welcome ☺. Enjoy!
Three activities that have played an important part in my life have come together in this website: photography, web design and my love for English (I'm not trying to be perky here, I chose to translate my website into English as most of my visitors are non-Dutch speaking).
Photography is what makes me tick. I noticed that my work is getting more and more abstract. Inspired by having visited more museums in the past five years than in my entire life? Most certainly. Changed because I am getting older? Definitely.
With techniques such as ICM and blur aided by post-processing I try to make images that are different and grab the attention. If they don't, I am truly sorry. But there's also plenty of tradional photography. Don't worry.
The wind carried motocross noises to my house, so I decided to take a peek. What I saw threw me back to the seventies

Sweet Peace, where dost thou dwell? I humbly crave,
Let me once know.
I sought thee in a secret cave,
And ask'd, if Peace were there,
A hollow wind did seem to answer,
No: Go seek elsewhere …
George Herbert (1593-1633), 'Peace'.

In November 2020, I started to concentrate on ICM as a form of photography art. In June 2022, I will be one of the featured photographers in a leading magazine on ICM photography, ICM PhotoMag. It makes me feel proud and excited. Pre-orders for the single-issue copy are now available at - https://www.icmphotomag.com/june-2022-issue.

One of the ICM Facebook communities I post regularly on, Pure ICM, uses challenges twice a week to stimulate the participants to create new material. The admins took a break in September, since October I have been one of the 'picks of the week' 50 times. I decided to stop participating, because I lost interest.
