Back from De Hoge Veluwe

Sweetheart and I enjoyed a great long weekend in De Hoge Veluwe, The Netherlands. Read about the National Park here.

We hiked quite a lot and explored the surrounding by bicycle.

The weather was great. For those who want to visit this area, I cannot recommend enough our hotel. We also dined at the hotel and the food was simply delicious. Read about the hotel here. (I am not paid to make any publicity. I am simply sharing my experiences.)

The first day I shot a roll of 120 in my Yashica Mat but the next few days I shot with my Nikon D2h and a 24-120mm lens or with the superb Ricoh GR II.

Looking back taking Woody (the Intrepid 4×5 Mk 3) with me would have been useless. After all, it was all about much-needed quality time with Sweetheart.

It is not impossible I’ll be returning somewhere end of October first week of November. Solo and with Woody. There are quite some interesting subjects to shoot with LF.
Maybe I’ll even shoot LF color. I’m very curious to try that out. Not sure yet to choose Kodak Porta or Kodak Ektar but I’m guessing the light will be soft and then Portra may be the best choice. Hell, maybe I’ll even try both.

In this post are a few examples or studies I made with my Nikon D2h.
