YEARS FAVORITES OF 2025
One year. Hundreds of kilometers. Countless moments that beg to be captured — and exactly one hundred that made it into this selection. This series of photos is a visual journey through 2025, in which the photographer takes you past landscapes, animals, people, and architecture, showing you how multifaceted a year can be when viewed through a viewfinder.
From the last light gliding over the Sallandse Heuvelrug to the misty mornings at the Hierdense Beek; from the rugged Frisian mudflats to the vast beaches of Zeeland. The journey continues past striking locations such as the Port House in Antwerp, the deserted streets of Doel, and the green hills of North Rhine-Westphalia. Each visit, whether solo or with fellow photographers, brought its own atmosphere and stories.
In addition to grand landscapes and quiet moments in nature, this book features a colorful selection of macro photography — flowers opening in the morning light, mushrooms hidden among moss and leaves. Animals from wildlife parks, birds in full plumage, and portraits from the Archeon Museum Park, where past and present meet, are also part of this unique collection.
This top 100 is more than a collection of photos. It is an ode to curiosity, movement, and wonder. A year full of searching, finding, and sometimes simply standing still. Let these images take you away and relive 2025: versatile, surprising, and full of stories told in silence.
