In just a few days I am moving out of the Netherlands where I have lived for the last three years. During these years, I've met many wonderful people, made countless memories and, obviously, taken hundreds of photos. I had a look at my archive and selected 15 of my favorite pictures.
These three years in the Netherlands were a really intense time in terms of photography. Sometimes photography was taking all of my free time: every spring I was spending dozens of hours taking photos of tulips. I learned to like the Dutch coast and use frequent weather changes to my advantage; I found out that Dutch towns and villages are a perfect playground for cityscape photography.
Below I present a collection of my favorite photos. I will surely come back to them each time I will miss the Netherlands.
