For quite a number of years already I have walked around my village
and surrounding countryside, enjoying the beauty of nature
and regularly stopping for a photo opp. Sometimes long hikes,
more often walks of between one and two hours long.
I have now prepared an exhibition of collages of these "walking the seasons"-pictures,
in which I tried to combine them thematically: geografical, seasonal, natural, formal, etc.
If there is one common denominator it seems to me that all photo''s fall under 
\so-called lyrical photography, celebrating the diverse beauty of my surroundings: 
the northern side of the old border region of Westerwolde. All pictures were shot between 
2005 and 2018, many with my successive cell phones, others with a small compact camera.
Of the 21 collages I made, sixteen (in 50cm x50cm frames) will be shown 
in a lunchroom gallery in a neighboring village between April 1st and mid June of this year.
The subject of this first collage is the small forest with ponds and stream 
where I walk most often: the Veendiepse Bos, no more than twenty minutes from my home.
