If you are visiting this page, it is probably because you’ve seen my silent hiking video of this location. Here is a gallery with more photographs from that trip. Thanks a lot for watching. Friendly reminder: all my photographs are available for custom printing, reach out if you are interested.
Autumn is here, and it is in full effect. Vibrant colors, changing weather and the forest basically changing its coat. Shedding off what is left of the summer. And preparing for the winter. During this time of the year the forest is one of the most interesting and beautiful places to be. Every tree is competing for the prize of the most colorful and the prettiest. The wind is practicing on its cool breeze again, and the rain is finding its way down to the earth’s soil a lot more compared to the summer months.
Exactly, time to head out, and spend some time in the forest. Capture all of it. Below are a bunch of photographs I took at the end of October.
All of them were shot with my Nikon D500, my Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 S and Nikon 17-55mm F2.8

Autumn is here, and I am super busy. Renovating the house and working on what feels like a thousand projects. All of this is good. I can’t complain. But due to me being super busy I haven’t had the change to go out and capture some of that Autumn goodness. Up until this week… This week it finally happened. And probably right in time, within a few weeks these popping colors will probably be gone.
In this blog, a nice forest in Vijlen, Limburg (NL) south of the country. Lots of pines, elevation changes and beautiful forest trails and paths. A great place to spend a few hours hiking. And so I did. Alright, have a look at my shots below, thank you.
Observing and enjoying the beautiful forest.

I am an idiot. But sometimes its nice to be an idiot.
So I went out to shoot some landscape and sunset shots last night, at the Strabrechtse Heide. Very cool, all good. Only to forget how big this natural heath land is.
So the entire distance that I had walked from where I had parked my car needed to be covered again. I am talking quite some kilometers here. And all in the dark. Now, walking our hiking in the dark is no issue. But at this place it gets DARK!!
About 30 minutes before the sun went down
Trust me, hiking this place in the dark was no joke. It got my adrenaline levels right up, because there's wild boars, wild Highland cattle probably not super happy with me strolling through their habitat during breeding season. While I am actually also managing to find my way back in the pitch black forest.
But hey, that's my dose of adventure for this week! Haha... But let me tell you, I was quite happy to make it out of the forest a bit faster then usual this time...
Quality time with mother nature.
