Just a couple of scenery photos of one of my favorite places to be, hiking with my large format camera.

It’s been a while since I posted new work here. Have been in Garzweiler on and off during the pandemic. But the vibe keeps surprising me, so many people, so involved for the area! #garzweiler #lützibleibt #hasselblad #kodakektar100 #browncoal #alledörferbleiben1 jaar geleden
Taking photos of your own house was never matched my style this much. Have been busy with replacing the roof there, this was before any renovations. What an amazing place already! #hasselblad #kodakektar100 #selfdevelopment #abandoned #newproject #chimney #bbq #myownforest2 jaar geleden
This photo is taken last year in Mannheim’s, another village which is near Hambach, another mine where the same thing’s happening #hasselblad #kodakekat100 #hambibleibt #hambach #browncoal #abandoned #deserted #villages2 jaar geleden
Throwback to summer 2018, when taking these lovely photos for our project ‘Challenge the Norm’. @jolienlavrijssen #sunset #summer #classiccars #kodakektar100 #hasselblad #selfdevelopment #filmisnotdead2 jaar geleden
A lot has happened past year and I’ve been sharing way to less photos. More protest have coming up in Garzweiler, which more images are on it’s way. This is an abandoned garage, near Immerath. #alledoerferbleiben #garzweiler2 #browncoal #analog #hasselblad #deserted #abandoned #fujipro400h2 jaar geleden
Almost done with my two week residency at @witterook_nu. Has been really valuable already, bit stressed for the presentation tomorrow though. I want to show you some images which didn’t make the cut, made the neighborhood ‘Doornbos-Linie’, following are rediscovering my passion.3 jaar geleden
Went back to Garzweiler for the last two weekends. They are occupying the L277 now, RWE is demolishing it. It is one of the last roads connecting Lützerath and other villages turning it into this..3 jaar geleden
Morschenich, 2020. A small village next to the Hambach mine, still occupied by a handful of people. #browncoal #scooter #abandoned #deserted #village #kodakektar100 #selfdevelopment #hasselblad #filmisnotdead #analogisnotdead #analogphotography3 jaar geleden
Hambach Wald, a new project which I’ve been busy with for a couple of months now. The ancient forest is in conflict with a brown coal mine and therefor occupied by activists living there. This is a part of the forest, barricaded. #hambacherforst #hambach #hasselblad #kodakportra #forest #barricade #activism #browncoal #conflict #filmisnotdead #shootfilm3 jaar geleden
Bewohnt, in the last stage of the transition, when there’s more abandoned then occupied, people need to warm intruders/explorers. The village has become more an attraction then a village at this point. #etzweiler #manheim #browncoal #energytransition #abandoned #occupied #hasselblad #kodakektar100 #gate #filmisnotdead #deserted3 jaar geleden
Missing my old place in these times with this as my backyard/playground.. #abandonedplaces #naturestrikesback #fomapan400 #intrepidcamera #4x5 #largeformat #deserted #filmisnotdead #eindhoven #hurk #antikraak #fotograafeindhoven3 jaar geleden
Just before the crisis, I went to Brugge for a weekend away with @nenamaureen Such nice buildings and places there! #brugge #old #filmisnotdead #selfdeveloped #hasselblad #belgium #building3 jaar geleden
Kuckum 2020, went just there before the corona crisis. People were moving and a new sort of tourism is coming up again.. #garzweiler #kuckum #abandoned #hasselblad #selfdeveloped #bus #busstops3 jaar geleden
Lots of things happening right now, leaving this extraordinary beautiful place for instance after 4 years. A place, despite all it’s flaws, I’ve become really attached too.. #antikraak #antisquad #philips #kodakektachrome #hasselblad #selfdeveloped3 jaar geleden
When returning to the Garzweiler area, things always change. There is less and less, although for me new opportunities. New memories which have become visible, which were once hidden. It’s in the details..3 jaar geleden
Busy with my new website and uploading some pasts shoots which I’ve shown too less from. This is made with @ja.ninai as a small editorial shoot with a vintage feel.

Keyenberg is next, now that Borschemich has disappeared, the digger are slowly coming towards Keyenberg. Although the resistance is getting bigger, villages are being united, protests are getting bigger, it remains the question whether it’s be on time.. #keyenberg #keyenbergbleibt #garzweiler #browncoal #villages #disappearing #glow4 jaar geleden
Couple of weeks ago I went to Klimakamp in Rheinland. In the affected area of the garzweiler mine, they organize a week full of activities, workshops and demostrations about the climate and the mine. #klimakamp #garzweiler #hasselblad #selfdeveloped #tents #nature #kodakportra #browncoal #analogphotography #filmisnotdead4 jaar geleden
When I first started with my Garzweiler project, Borschemich was still a village mostly occupied. Now this is the entry road to Borschemich, or what was once Borschemich.. #alledörferbleiben #garzweiler #garzweiler2 #hasselblad #kodakektar100 #selfdevelopedfilm #abandoned #deadend #road #noentry4 jaar geleden
Shot a lot of work during the holidays, first things first. Scotland, going back after a year and hiking thought some amazing places with my #intrepidcamera. This is a waterfall where we washed up during our stay near the Suardalan night. #4x5 #largeformatcamera #selfdevelopedfilm #fujiprovia100f #schneider #scotland #nature #waterfall4 jaar geleden
