sunrise

It was cold this morning. When I stopped to make this photo of the sunrise, I stayed in my velomobile because of the freezing cold. Positive effect of the cold weather is that the air is bright and clear; perfect for a landscape …. especial during sunrise at 06.30 AM !

I mean the way this vimeo-portrait was made …. as simple and beautiful as the bicycle frames and with the same sort of craftsmanship. maybe Le Cadre Frameworks will be portrayed this…

“Zeeuws licht”

Or,the typical light in the area where I live and work; Zeeland. It is the reason why many painters came to this land to get inspiration. I just take photos (mostly) on my commute …. a slide show opens when you click on the photo ;
