WoW, I think I'm speechless over this picture. This bathroom is just amazing, the tub is made out of wood and created by an Italian craftsman. Like I said, WoW.

Home sweet home

Today I photographed at this beautiful house in Huizen. This 100% recycling house close to Amsterdam was build by a young group of nonconformist Dutch architects, a 100% green house, nestled in nature with humor and imagination.

Favourites

I have a few favourites in life. I'm amazed by butterflies, they amaze me every time with their beauty and fragility. So whenever I see butterflies I collect them, in my mind or on a picture. Other favourites for the moment are feathers, owls, crosses and great illustrations like these, from Stine Langvat.
