Hanging in a hangar

This one I took in a Hangar in het Ij, Amsterdam. The model was tired of all the posing she had to do and let it all hang... Which is when the best pics are made. Really like this image.

What say you?

Tour of Flanders 2011

Even though I try my best to stay away from just about anything that smells nationalist - especially in this current climate where the Flemish want to prove their superiority to the Walloons whom they don't even know - I could not resist my brother's invitation to come see the Tour of Flanders at his place which lies right in the middle of where the good stuff happens: the Flemish Ardennes. See the irony. And the juxtapose...
Not knowing anything about cycling I just knew I had to witness this popular event for myself so I set sail with my girl, a bad hangover and my camera.

Truth be told I am still not convinced that cycling truly is the sport of kings - who said that???? - and I could not give a monkey's arse about who won and why, but I did have a smashing afternoon with my friends anyhow.

Here's some pics of "my" tour...

Myra in Wonderland meets Cheshire dad

Still one of my favourite subjects of all time and full time apple of my eye: my niece! In the meantime she's grown quite a bit and is a firm believer in anything wonderful and magical. Tried to capture that in this here spontaneous pic at a family shindig.

Gotta love the cheekiness about her.

Back from the dead: A new life!

Wowie folks! U still here?
It's been ages since I last posted on this here photoblog: reason being, I just couldn't be bothered with it anymore. It's not that I don't like blogging (lord knows I do) and it's not that I don't like photography (L O V E IT!), but I just couldn't deal with my crap compact camera anymore.
So why start again?

...The answer is simpler than you would think: I GOT A NEW CAM!!!! And I'm loving it! After years and years and years of procrastinating I finally seduced myself (took several see-through dresses and a bottle of Moët) into investing in a new one! Yeayah!
I'm shooting pics again... and you get to witness this! Be sure to come back if u like... at random times.

Love yall.

Ducks and their shadows

Myra's Dream

Here's a colourpic I shot a few weeks ago. I don't often do colour pictures, much to the disapproval of my dear ole dad. Probably the reason why I don't often do colour pictures...
Narf.
But here I thought the colours were rather important. I purposefully 'blued' up the background to make the whole more dreamy, and to match this babe's fabulous blue eyes.
Isn't she the cutest?

I think so.

The Louvre as seen by a gargoyle

Just got back from Paris with some nice enough piccies to post. This being one of 'em. Lemme know what you think.
