I took this photo on the Hulshorsterzand near Hulshorst in the municipality of Nunspeet in the Veluwe. The path you see in the photo goes from a viewpoint over the dunes towards the Hulshorsterzand. As you can see, over the years vegetation has grown on this dune. The fence that you see is to get too far that you come next to the path and go down, to take this picture I hung a little over this fence. In the sky you can see a dark cloud from a rain shower, with this shower I was lucky that it moved past me and I was in the sun. It was also autumn weather when I was on the Hulshorster Sand. The trees that you see in this photo are birch, oak and Scots pine. In the lower right corner of the photo you can see some purple flowering heather bushes. To take this photo I used the fence as a foothold to hold my camera steady.
