After I had an appointment with - potential - clients it became a habit of mine to spend the rest of the morning, or afternoon, photographing landscapes or scenery on my way home. Like this afternoon I drove to the province of Drenthe (North-East Netherlands) and wanted to photograph some classic white winterscapes while I met these guys along the way. From a distance they looked like Trojans guarding their territory. While I became closer they seemed to enjoy me standing next to them while photographing the landscape with this small unpaved road crossing the entire landscape, at least as far as I could see. Actually, they were the friendliest calm and most beautiful horses that I've met.

P.s. still busy catching up with all of you. Will be there soon! To those 475 new contacts - 24 pages pending! - I'd like to say hi and thank you for viewing my work and adding me as your contact. I really appreciate it, and I will review each of you in the forthcoming days. Just don't think I haven't added you back because of ignorance. Also, I can't guarantee that I'm adding you reciprocally. I already have my hands full with my current contact-list. Nevertheless, thank you for your patience.
