Rheum palmatum, a perennial ornamental rhubarb with very large decorative leaves. In spring it really pops out of the ground, the beautiful leaves on top green and the underside dark red are a sight to behold. Unfortunately, it is susceptible to strong winds and that's how I got this unfortunately broken-off leaf. Upside down in the wheelbarrow, the leaf was not only beautiful in colour and wonderful in texture, the veins the 'veins' of the leaf were also of a touching beauty. The life of this leaf has sadly come to an end. But nature always produces new leaves during a sufficiently humid summer. A season of enjoying nature's beauty.

Time stands still.......A winter's day in pastel shades, a foggy spring's morning, summer's rest in August, the autumn: transience in colour, smell and light! From an early age, I have been fascinated by the seasons. In 2006 I got more time and by attending courses at FRB Photography I gradually became completely fascinated by photography and I have continued to develop myself. The fact that I live in a beautiful rural area of Friesland has certainly contributed to a preference for photographing landscapes, capturing the special moments. Time does not stand still, the light, the sky and the atmosphere are constantly changing! A few years ago I also started photographing still lifes, the time-honoured craft of composing with light and form. Life literally stands still for a moment. An idea arises, the execution and the fine tuning, is mainly about the art of omission.
