Since last year, I have been working on a photo and film project in my own garden, specifically focusing on life in our large natural pond. As part of this project I'll share some short stories...

Partial Solar Eclipse / Sunset 2026 part II
Afbeelding 1 van 54

Sometimes your ambition exceeds your capabilities... and it is a shame that you only find that out afterwards. My goal was to capture the eclipse in the landscape towards sunset, with the change in colors in the background, from uneclipsed through maximum partial eclipse (90%) towards sunset. Even though I had all the information and footage from two cameras, this caused quite a few headaches regarding post-processing afterwards. I am very satisfied with the result. And the branch? That was a gamble and it worked out exactly...

Partial Solar Eclipse / Sunset 2026 Although I ha Partial Solar Eclipse / Sunset 2026

Although I had already seen the totality during the eclipse 2024 in the US, I absolutely wanted to capture the partial solar eclipse one more time. I had big plans and was already on my way when the weather forecast forced me to turn back. After a 3-hour drive, I eventually ended up just a 5-minute bike ride from home 😂 But it turned out to be the perfect spot, because I was able to witness this spectacular phenomenon together with the family at a beautiful spot along the river with the best view of the setting sun and... all alone. I enjoyed it immensely and hope to be able to capture the totalilty someday again... 

Johan

P.S. It turned out to be clear weather at my initial spot after all, so turning back wasn't even necessary. But I absolutely don't regret it...

Solar eclipse time! In two days, the sun will dis Solar eclipse time!

In two days, the sun will disappear behind the new moon for about 2 minutes, at least if you are in the zone of totality. But even in the Netherlands, we can experience this spectacular event for more than 2 hours, with up to 88% coverage. 

Many will witness this event and if you want to photograph, have a look at my website for 2 tutorials (in Dutch): 1 for the partical eclips and a second for the possible photos in totality zone... 

See link in bio

These pictures are made during the 2024 eclips in USA... 

Let's experience the eclipse!!
