Rowan on the moors by Karla Leeftink

The first rays of sun shine across the heath, carefully dispelling the morning mist on this beautiful summer day in August. The whimsical stems of the rowan tree bend towards the ground as if to greet the heather. The berries provide little orange colour accents amidst all that purple. A few clouds pass over. The soft skimming light creates an atmospheric sunrise on the big quiet heath. This is summer at its best.

Karla Leeftink prefers to photograph in the peace and quiet of early mornings with a hint of mysterious mist. The Drentsche-Aa region and the Reest valley are ideal for this with their frequently occurring misty landscapes. She also likes the wide open Wadden Sea landscapes and rough Norwegian fjord landscapes. Standing under the stars she is in her element and impressed by creation. In a frozen puddle and on knots of trees she spontaneously sees abstract works of art before her.

At her nature presentations she enthusiastically shares her nature experiences and lets others enjoy them with the help of her photo and video material. She has set up a line of cards with about a hundred cards, in which she has incorporated her own photos. She contributes photos to magazines and is author of the book "Reeën het jaar rond ". (released in 2018)
