Neptune tail Curacao

Here are some pictures I took of a tail of an old Royal Dutch Navy Neptune. Its planned to become a gate keeper for the HATO base.
The plane was standing for a dozen or so years in the bush just outside the airfield of Curacao when the plane was made to make it a gate keeper, so they chopped of the tail. They are planning to only use the vertical stabilizer.

Groenland 2012

 Hier een impressie van het overweldigende landschap, de dieren en mensen welke Groenland te bieden heeft. En waar ik het geluk geluk van heb gehad om er van te mogen genieten! 

De foto's zijn genomen aan de west kust, van Sitimiut, wat 60 kilometer boven de pool cirkel ligt, tot aan Qaanaaq, wat 1200 kilometer boven de pool cirkel ligt.

Geniet!


Here a slection of pictures of the overwhelming landscape, the nature and people of Greenland. Which I was fortuned enough to have been able to enjoy.

The pictures are taken on the West coast, from Sisimiut, which is 60 kilometers above the Arctic Circel, till Qaanaaq, which lays 1200 kilometers above the Arctic Circle.

 Enjoy!
