2014 Dutch National Championship Underwaterphotography – 1st place overall

Winning the Open Dutch National Championship for the 3rd time was a milestone for me. It was a strong competition with 50 photographers, not only from the Netherlands, but also from Belgium, Germany, Switserland and Denmark! This year I dared to shoot some more out-of-the-ordinary shots….just to see how the jury would rate them.
I was pleased to see that my really different wide angle with model was appreciated!

Overall (Dutch): 1st place
Overall (Open Dutch): 1st place
