And that's all folks. (for so far) My last photo from live Japan. (i have a lot more 😅) The Astro Boy Mural at the Crosswalk at Takadonobada Station. It was once again an amazing journey. There is still a lot to see and explore. To be continued. ありがとうございます, 日本! :)view on Glass
Yesterday, I've met at Sunset with Glass friend Yoshito ( https://glass.photo/_f7 ) in Tokyo at Shiinamachi Station to take a photo of Uonomi fish bar. It is right next to the station. Standing there, isolated between two streets. We went on the bridge and waited for the sun to set. But the photo i liked the most was the one i took fron ground level when we left. :D After that we went on a photowalk together to Shinjuku, to capture the light of all the neon signs. It was a very nice evening! I took hundreds of photos. So a lot will follow in the future. ...If you guys don't mind... :)view on Glass
Another shot of Fuji I took at noon. I like that one more. :)view on Glass
One more from Narai-juku :) How I would love to live in a house like that.view on Glass
When taking that photo, I thought it was way to dark. So i adjustet the brightness and took some more. But the first one turned out to be the best. :D Hirayu Onsenview on Glass
Trick or Treat… …for Bokkie it felt more like a trick on her i guess, but there were also a lot of treats involved 😁 Happy Halloween! 🎃 👻 I took inspiration from @molly on that one 😁view on Glass
If that isn’t a fitting photo for Halloween! 🎃 I encountered the flying Dutchman on my way to work yesterday. The fog was really thick, and luckily I had my camera with me.view on Glass
Monday, I had once again the honour to bet the photographer at a PhD Graduation of a friend. It was at the beautiful Akademiegebouw in Utrecht. As we waited for the ceremony to start I noticed the sun shining through that stain glass window in the hallway. And i captured it. It was beautiful.view on Glass
And that is my last Iceland picture. I thought it’s fitting. Right now I’m working on a photobook. I usally do this, after a holiday. Reliving the last holiday, before dreaming of (and planning) the next. Arranging all the photos into pages. Making nice compositions. I have a shelf full of them at home. I’m not 100% satisfied with my Iceland photos though I have to say. It was not the easiest environment to shoots and i somehow have the feeling my photos could have been better. In Japan, it’s easier to take a good picture imo. And I think the light is different. See, this may sound stupid. I’m no expert here. May it be the weather, may it be the time of year or the geographical position on our planet. In Japan I had more of a warm golden light. In Iceland I experienced a (sometimes to bright) cold light. Which seems fitting. What I wanted to say in a very complicated way is… The light was different 😅 And maybe I wasn’t very well prepared for this. But I like my pictures. Which brings me me to a very fitting japanese philosophy to close my essay I have read about a pillar at a temple in Nikko. It has a wave pattern and they have putted it upside down unlike all the others. It goes something like that: If something is perfect it is finished. There is no point in improving and keeping better. (Memory protocol) So I emprace the imperfection I guess, embrace the improving, getting bettter and having fun. But what I wanted to ask in the first place: Has anyone of you experienced different light in different parts of the world?view on Glass

Myvatn Lava Formations on a dark and rainy morning. The person in the yellow raincoat really adds to that picture in combination with the slowly fading orange leafs and the black of the vulcanic rocks. Thanks a lot. 😉view on Glass
Here’s an underwater photo I took with my GoPro during our dry-suit snorkelling trip in the Silfra fissure. It looked a bit like a tourist trap, but it was absolutely stunning and I’m glad we went. The different shades of blue are simply gorgeous. A cool experience. Literally. 🥶 (4°C) the meta data is not right. this photo is from 24/09/2026 😅view on Glass

He lives by the sea. Right by the water’s edge. Underneath the pier. Staring out at the ocean day in, day out. Exposed to the waves. Exposed to the wind. Slowly going mad. Like an old lighthouse keeper.view on Glass
This church is on my way to work. I cycle past it every day. And time and again I think to myself, ‘That would be perfect for this category.’ Yesterday I finally took a photo. The building itself seemed surprised that I’d finally got round to photographing it… 😯 or that it had taken me so long. 😅view on Glass

Last Wednesday, after nearly 16 years together, we had to say goodbye to our beloved cat Mia. 😔 It all happened very quickly and unexpectedly. We thought we will have a few more months together. It hurts. The silence at home. We miss her very much. It’s a small comfort that she passed away peacefully in the garden, in her favorite spot, in the sun. What remains are many wonderful memories. To take our minds off things, we printed linocut cards (first time) for all her friends and are now sending them out, along with an Instax photo of her as a keepsake. (she has quite a a lot) Thank god, we have so many pictures of her! We miss you, Mia! ❤️view on Glass
