Landscapes: Honorable Mention 2019 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Jagged edges of the Alps under a deceptive veil of silky clouds.
A gentle reminder of the lurking dangers below the innocent looking layers below us.
This shot was taken above the Swiss Alps from an altitude of 36.000ft. Landscapes and mountains like miniature ridges. Detached from the surface, the entire world slips by in slow motion.
It's sometimes unbelievable that I'm able to cross those landscapes and ranges in mere minutes, where not even a hundred years ago people would take days or weeks to cross the Alps.
I feel privileged to sit in the front row with my camera and document it all.
AUTHOR
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.
