Great work, Marcel!

My #1 is 'ever-winding ditches'. The way the curves of water and pathway flow into one another.

I find some of the photographs meditative and calming.

I love the darkness of these images - its really interesting to follow your process in documenting and story-telling before you make the edits.

Thank you for the mention, Marcel! This question might sound a bit weird, rude even but it is just curiosity: why are you sharing (unedited) photos from a project you don’t know the concept of yet? Does it help you to understand more about the motivation behind it? Or what is your motivation for sharing? I am asking because I sometimes work on something without knowing where it might lead me to, but I usually don’t share anything before I figured it out. Would love to understand the idea behind it…

I think the first frame is my favorite. The large negative space on the bottom of the photograph creates a nice compression of the sky above, which add to the moody scene. Nice set, Marcel ! Thanks for sharing :)

The photo of the lonely sailing ship is absolutely spectacular. Wonderful! Those must be Frisian cattle, yes?

Thank you for sharing this project. It looks very interesting. I like the high contrast look. Your horizons are not level in two shots. This ruins them as it’s a basic error.
