Wild Wood Feb 2025

The groves of European pine in the Noord Holland dunes forest are truly majestic, both in the wider landscape and as colonnades from within. But large areas of the dunes are inhabited by those same pines and other trees can become mythical in their visual associations. This is something best communicated in black and white images in which form dominates through light and shade. My gallery this month is a small selection amongst which two images express the majestic, one of a pine grove in the Middenduin and one of a poplar in the Oase Waterleidingduinen that seems to have all the attributes usually attributed to a human flaneur.
