That light

Veronica is cleaning the ship's hold with a powerful water hose.

I thought this could potentially provide some good photo options. Water, light, a lot of dark areas and some real life action, what more can you want.

Life

Our son is moving to another house and we had some stuff stored at his old place, a good opportunity to assist him a bit in getting things organised. As you can see, he appreciated us being there.

Gay Paris

Now this is our actual daily life. Passing through Paris on the Seine.
Not every day, but it is something we do on a regular basis. We travel Europe and that includes Paris, from time to time.

Not that special, if you live in Paris

Black White Grey

Black and White on a digital camera designed for color. Not easy. Very easy. Depends on your wishes.

I adore the quality of my Black and White scans from real film. See some previous posts. And that quality

White Out

A very special day at the Oosterschelde. Hardly any wind, the horizon seemed to disappear completely. If it would not be for the sand-bank you could not see where the water stops and the sky begins.

O Dear

No posts in a long time. A lot has happened in our personal life, no time for the internet and no time to develop and scan my films. I tried almost all commercial labs, but am very unhappy with their scans, they can not mach

New eye

Remember I has some issues with the Carl Zeiss Biogon 2.0/35mm? I recently found a beautiful Summicron 35mm, the pre-ASP version. Yes, that one.

So, if you get a new lens, you want to try it out, so I did.

At the Fair

I love a good Fair, always a lot of opportunities for a good picture. The one at Saint-Jean-de-Luz in France is particularly good.

I walked around, camera in my hand with the strap rapped around my arm, camera slightly behind my back. For me this works good

Direction

The light was magnificent, low evening sun, full of promise.
I knew there where great pictures in the air, I only had to grab them.
Only.

In conditions like that

Magic

I don't fancy a description to accompany a picture, this is not journalism. I prefer to let the viewer work it out.

But in this case the why does have an added value.

This is at the Making of Harry Potter Studio Tour, near London, just before

Leuven

While doing some shopping and taking care of things we had to do, I was busy taking pictures.

The world of train stations is allways an intriguing place for me, a lot of people things happening. I noticed

Compiegne

We are working on a long-term project concerning shipping, I won't elaborate too much on that, nothing solid yet, but this photograph is part of that project, as an example of the style we might want to achieve.

What I want to show here is how
