Tunisia Desert Challenge 2022, eight stages, a lot of sand, and amazing action by all competitors. It was a challenge, also for us, but nevertheless amazing to work with everyone again. vimeo.com/704884198

They had to push, up and down the hill during the Mountainbike World Championships in Leogang. But it (almost) always ended with a smile. @KNWU I @NLLoterij I @UCI_MTB

Over a week ago I was still trying to clean up all the mud from the UCI Mountainbike World Championships Leogang (Austria) with @KNWU. Check out this video and experience it from my standpoint 📷 vimeo.com/469105906

What an amazing muddy week with awesome muddy people. The @UCI_MTB World Championships in Leogang Austria finished last week. I'm proud of all our @KNWU riders and staff. 🧡

Check this impression of my most recent event with the @KNWU at the famous Imola circuit for the @UCI_cycling World Championships as the embedded photographer for the Dutch team. 🎥 vimeo.com/463054239

Accidents are never planned, and we live in a time of threat level for acts of terrorism. That is why it is wise to be prepared if you want to be able to help and I took the First Responder On Scene course at The Happy Wanderer and shot some images of the other students.⁠

Royal Netherlands Air Force 298 Squadron trains together with Royal Netherlands Army @11Luchtmobiel on the Ginkelse heide.⁠ These guys have to perform every minute when they get sent on a mission. So the current warm weather is a realistic extra part of their exercise.

Another week full of exercises on the Ginkelse Heide. this week with Chinook helicopters.⁠ The helicopters had to box in a car that crossed the terrain and get it to stop. These maneuvers guaranteed nice actions at low altitude with a lot of dust.

Living on the Veluwe comes with beautiful nature and is an excellent location to travel from. The area is also known for the exercises on the Ginkelse Heide. That was the case last week when I saw these Cougar helicopters, got the camera out, and had some fun with them.⁠

With three cyclists we went into the local trails around Doorwerth shooting every aspect of dutch mountainbiking.⁠ Having fun on flowy and technical trails through nature. Never a dull moment and you can ride it as you want.⁠ Shot for @KNWU

These slow times during the COVID-19 pandemic made time available to work on my medical skills and gear. Therefore I've made an article about my updated basic first aid kit which fits in my backpack. pridexmedia.nl/2020/07/15/wha…

We made good use of the amazing weather a few weeks back shooting road cyclists. Shot for @KNWU

#2020REPOST Earlier this year I shot with @joostluiten for his foundation in which he introduces young people to Golf.⁠

#2019REPOST Four years ago during my first rally-raid I started flying drones. After that there has only been one rally where I did not use it. I use it as another angle in different ways. From kilometers away to a few meters further, and straight down or just show the scenery.⁠

#2019REPOST Early mornings in the dunes during rally raids, it will not get better than that. The sound of the first motorbikes in the distance. Competitors beginning on an endless looking track through the dunes section. And playing peek-a-boo when reaching the top of the dunes.

From the guys of Xtorm I received their trusty mid-range powerbank, the Discover 15.000 mAh which can charge up to three devices over USB and USB-C. Check out my short review and of course the unboxing 📦 📷 pridexmedia.nl/2020/06/16/gea…

Sun, sport, and photography, what could be better? I had a lot of fun seeing my girlfriend taking her first cross-country steps (and jumps) with ease. This certainly tastes like more for this combination of Tamara with Briljant.⁠

One Year Ago🤩

Last week I had the privilege to shoot a photo reportage with Lotte Koopmans. She is a mountainbike rider but also an emergency doctor and saw the beds fill up with seriously ill corona patients over the past weeks.
