Baia del Vento

A rocky beach on the western shore of Lago di Garda, with beautiful views over Italy's largest lake. Here I was looking out over the San Fermo peninsula and Isola del Garda. While this is a private beach, meant for guests of the vacation homes and restaurants adjacent to it, it was all but deserted this early in the morning.

Golden Hour

Just after sunrise, this lake at the edge of Haarlem turned gold. When these geese came flying by, I was ready. With this shot, I think I managed to capture the early morning atmosphere quite well.

Seceda

My first time at the northern edge of the immensely beautiful Alpe di Siusi, at the famous Seceda, the sky was mostly blue. The second time, though, clouds were hanging between the peaks of Gran Fermeda (the mountain on the left) and Sas Rigais (the 'crown' in the middle). This looked far more interesting. Coupled with the purple flowers in the foreground, this is a view that you don't want to skip when you're here. The flowers are poisonous, by the way, so be careful.

NLC

This beautiful display of noctilucent clouds called for a good foreground. I was frantically riding my bike, searching for something I could use, when I rode past this windmill. Using it as a silhouette was a no-brainer. I'm really happy with this result.

Rocky Beach

After days of wanting to go, yesterday evening I finally actually got the chance to go to the beach. I opted for Schoorl, one of my favourite beaches in the Netherlands. These rocks always offer a nice foreground. Using a long exposure, the retreating sea created a nice blanket of waves around them.

Rügen

The white chalk cliffs on the edge of Jasmund Nationalpark on Rügen, Germany's largest island, are a sight to behold. Especially during a beautiful sunrise like this. It was nothing short of mesmerising to be a witness of this moment. On my own, no less. If you haven't visited this gem in the Baltic sea yet, you really should.
