Famous windmills

Famous Windmills in Enchanting Light

From Kinderdijk to Other Icons

Windmills are an essential part of the Dutch landscape. In fact, most of my photos feature Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In additio, I also photograph windmills in other regions of the Netherlands. This variety means you will see both famous landmarks and lesser-known gems — each with its own story.

Seasons and the Play of Light

Whether in spring, summer, autumn, or winter, windmills constantly change in atmosphere. At sunrise, they bathe in soft, dreamy light. At sunset, they glow with warm, deep colours. Moreover, mist, frost, or storms can add extra character to a scene. As a result, each image becomes a unique moment that can never be repeated in exactly the same way.

Captured with an Eye for Detail

Sometimes, an intimate, close-up format works best. Other times, a sweeping panorama tells the stronger story. By carefully choosing viewpoint, timing, and light, every photo becomes a piece of wall art designed to spark emotion.
