Strolling through the old city of Baku, Azerbaijan during in the afternoon, with the low sun casting her warm colors on the old buildings and the hyper modern skyscrapers in the background. It could have been a scene from a science fiction movie

Born and raised in The Netherlands in 1983, I was fascinated by natural light in all its forms since a young age. Now working as a pilot, flying all over the world, I always have my camera with me to immortalize the world around me, be it from the cockpit or at destinations that I am fortunate to visit. Capturing moments that have never been seen before and will never be seen again with eye for light, composition and mood.
