Even though I went to Austria to write, the mountain landscape invited me to make a couple of photographs.<\/p>\n<p>During the last hike I was struck by a rather blocky mountain whose shape reminded me of its genesis. Behind this mountain was another, much pointier, one. All with their characteristic (and, dare I say, picturesque) remains of snow. \u00a0I found myself\u00a0on a steep slope with unruly vegetation. With my 100 mm lens I shot what was visible of the distant mountains from my viewpoint. My hiking partner had descended and I was alone. Suddenly the view of the landscape connected a couple of loose ends in my head, it was not a flash but more a wave of clarity. Standing next to one of the unruly bushes I realised how this contrasted as well as resembled \/ agreed with the clean harsh points in the distance. How a single photograph (the decisive moment if you wish) can never portray the individuality of the artist. With a slightly longer shutterspeed I shot some photographs of the mountain on which I myself stood, to be able to construct the landscape as I saw it in my mind during that moment of clarity.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_364\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-364\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-364\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joerivanveen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Mountain-landscape-I.jpg\" alt=\"Mountain landscape I\" width=\"1024\" height=\"737\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-364\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mountain landscape I &#8211; photo Joeri van Veen 2013<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A spur of the moment shot of a mountain, that I was proud of at the time of making.
