Blue door



Chefchaouen in Morocco is a small town in the Riff mountains. The blue colour which they use to paint the old houses is amazing. The light reflected from those walls is almost mysterious. It's not difficult to wonder around
for days and just watch all those small alley's and the nice painted doors

Wild apes in Morocco



Around the waterfalls of Ouzoud, Morocco, are living three groups of wild apes. Each group consist of about 70 animals. Luckily they are nowdays protected. About 10 years ago there were only some 40 monkeys left. We were lucky to see just a new born in one of the groups.

Seagulls on Plage Blanche

An early morning on Plage Blanche, Morocco. This is a beautiful beach with kilometers of pure clean sand. Some fishermen are living in huts on the beach, otherwise there is nobody living there. One morning the seagulls were all waiting for something, don't know what...The weather was very different from any other day, the wind was bringing very humid and salty air.

 Most people come to enjoy the sunset when they are in the Sahara. One day, me and my assistant were sitting on top of the big dune and suddenly came this guy on this cross bike, racing to the top.When he had to go down he was a bit hesitating, it's a damn high dune...

Beauty of the desert


When people think of the Sahara, they say it's just a place with sand.
Nothing more, nothing less. But the shapes and lines you can find there, are
stunning...Not any landscape is formed by such a a great design.

Sahara, Morocco



We arrived in the Sahara at the same time as a sand storm. Normally visiters don't like this kind of weather, but I was very happy with this. The wind had made really beautiful patterns in the sand.

Breathtaking High Atlas in Morocco



Gorges du Dades, South Morocco. This is part of the High Atlas. Life is very tough in this region. Later I will show you some pics of people we met there and how they live...
