As a landscape photographer I am always traveling a lot. But I'm always happy to be back home in my hometown, Amsterdam. I can never get enough of photographing the beauty of this city. The canals and buildings are just so photogenic.
This series of photos was captured over a period of several years. It includes photos from every season and conditions. I just love to walk through the city in the evening especially. When the lights turn on everything just looks magical!

The typical Amsterdam canal houses reflecting in the canal in the evening.
A long exposure shows light streaks from a tourist boat in the canals on a spring evening.
An extremely foggy atmosphere during winter in one of the most beautiful streets on the outer parts of the city.
The setting moon reflecting in the water during a beautiful calm morning in the city centre.
I love the city during winter. This was shot in January this year when we had some moderate snowfall (not as heavy as in 2017). The snow with the lights on the trees makes for a magical atmosphere.
Another photo of the snowfall earlier this year. We had only 1 day of proper snow in the city but it was enough to get some winter spots.
You'll see bikes in our city everywhere. I liked this playful composition of 2 bike wheels with the westerkerk in the middle.
The sun always sets into different canals. It's always a beautiful sight to see it set right in the middle of this particular location on the Leidse Gracht.
Autumn 2018. The trees turn yellow while the flowers are still there. There are often beautiful flowers around the city that are taken care of through the year, except for winter.
The setting sun right in between a street, reflecting on the pavement.
Another photo of the Westerkerk taken with an extreme wide-angle lens. By playing with the lines on the roads and pavement I created this interesting composition.
A close-up shot of the houses and a boat where people live on in the foreground. This was shot during autumn.
The last remains of a burning sunset. The wind calms down and the street lights turn on. Some corners of the city look magical.
