Shot in Benelux

About this project

I’ve lost count of my trips to the Netherlands – it’s easily the country I’ve visited most. Somewhere between the flat horizons, the glass facades of Amsterdam and the kindness of my Dutch friends, I started bringing a camera. This collection gathers those impressions: postcards from Holland and Belgium, shot along the way.
