Don't...

Unedited water reflection in Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


People, including myself, tend to think too much about stuff that does not deserve our time and energy, we spend considerable amounts of our days thinking about something that has already happened, or something that might, or might not happen in the future, leaving almost no room to understand and appreciate the only thing we actually do have and that we can influence, this very moment right NOW!! Few of us can truly say that they live in the present, we are all over the place inside our heads but not where it really matters, right NOW!!! Sometimes I watch videos of Eckhart Tolle and it usually helps me to focus for a while on what's really important, you should try it to, this movie for example is a nice one, give it a go, you've got nothing to loose except all those wasted hours of overthinking :)

Wicked...

Unedited water reflection. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


As much as I love my hometown Amsterdam, every now and then I have to leave for a couple of days, because being here is an intense, beautiful, challenging and wicked experience that sometimes requires me to step out of my life, go away and come back after a little while. This helps me to see the city with new eyes and a new sense of appreciation, a rather simple yet effective way of rejuvenating the love-love relationship me and A-town have...now I'm back after a long weekend in another country, where luckily they have puddles as well...it's not Amsterdam, but I hope you like them anyway :)

Ice Fun...

Shot of the Iceskating rink at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V.


The annual Iceskating rink is back at the Rijksmuseum and of course I took some pictures of it and made a little movie of the people enjoying the fun as well...I don't know what it is about skating on ice that makes it such a lovely thing to do, but it's pure pleasure. I am always very happy to see how everybody turns into a kid again and simply enjoys doing round after after round on the white gold :)


If you get a chance, go and visit my Solo Expo at the cafe 'Van de Buurt' in the west of Amsterdam :)

Unedited puddle reflection of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


This time of the year is perfect for shooting wicked reflections, it rains almost every day and when/if the sun comes out, it adds some lovely rays of lights to the wet landscape, allowing me to take the kind of pictures that I personally like a lot, but still I am eagerly awaiting the Spring season, there is just nothing like the first time you go to the park to chill out between the birds, bees and flowers after a harsh, long Winter...just a few more months and the cycle of life will start again, see you in the Vondelpark :)

Slightly edited window reflection of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing besides some messing around with contrast and saturation, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


Sometimes the way we live our modern lives in our modern cities reminds me of robots and machines, we are so focused on creating value for those fat cats sitting on top of the system that we sometimes forget what is really important in life: Love, Friendship, Happiness, Sunshine, Freedom, Health and all those other good things that can't be replaced by money and material possessions. I try to cherish and appreciate these things whenever I can and I think it is what keeps me happy most of the time :)

Unedited puddle reflection of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


We live in interesting times and every now and then it's good to remind ourselves that we have so much to be grateful for and so many things that we can appreciate...in my case it's the simple pleasures, like the sun shining on my face, watching the birds on my balcony, spending time with friends, being able to take photos, and manymany other little actions and situations that make me happy to be who I am, where I am and how I created my own wicked world out of thin air. If you would like to take a peek at one of the things that fill me with joy, shooting wicked reflections, go and visit my Solo Expo at the cafe 'Van de Buurt' in the west of Amsterdam, and maybe it'll add some positive vibes to your day and put a smile on your face :)

The lovely Miss L, lightpainted by me in Amsterdam. Taken with a Canon 400D. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


Yesterday I've made another attempt at Light Painting, and even though I'm miles and miles away from reaching the level of awesomeness of my LP idols Vincent, Wen and Tim, I majorly enjoy doing this, so I won't stop...unless I come across a seriously pretty puddle that might force me to shoot some wicked reflections of it, lol :)

Unedited water reflection of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)


This time of the year is perfect for shooting wicked reflections and I'm happy about the rain and the sunshine and all that...if you would like to see some of my puddle photos in real life, you should check out my Solo Expo at the cafe Van de Buurt, for the next 3 months a selection of my work can be seen there, the opening hours are Mon - Sun: 10:00 am - 12:00 am :)
