I (male and taken) have always liked photographing. As far as that is concerned the apple never falls far from the tree, because both my father and my brother were professional photographers. Previously, I have even helped developing and printing (black and white) photographs.

I always have many photos taken during road trips or weekends in the Netherlands; or during my holidays in Europe and in recent years also in other continents.

With my photos on Flickr, I would like to show the beauty and diversity of the places I've visited. See for more information and tips about these destinations my website: members.virtualtourist.com/m/7c27b/

I like getting 'views', 'comments', 'favs' and 'invites' on my photos. But I really dislike the groups with mandatory comments or rewards as a kind of fee for posting. Please don't invite me for these groups.
After a couple of years I found that a lot of my pictures were added to too many (generic) groups and on the moment I'm reshuffling them bit by bit.
