Although this image was made just across the border in Belgium, it shows well the frustrations I sometimes feel about nature in the Netherlands: it looks beautiful, but you can't reach it

Introduction

In recent years I had the privilege to be a guest speaker several times at the Nature Photographers Association Strix in the Dolomites in Italy. That association has quite a number of excellent photographers, some of whom photograph exclusively in their own region. These are people who never go abroad for a photo trip. Not because they can't afford it, but because they have no need to! They feel deeply connected to nature in their own region and would rather experience and photograph that nature over and over again than visit new unknown areas.
