A new (crazy?) ‘project’ taking shape

  No, I am not half done with my new ‘Steps’ (see posts further down), but during repair of all my websites after the recent Russian hack attack, some other things popped up too. And you know I get bored quickly, don’t you? *grin*. So here’s the new project, for which I have NO money [...]

Toy or Tool?

I just bought me a new camera. After much researching and pondering, scratching my head and searching my conscience, I ultimately decided to buy yet another Nikon. This time a more professional one than my current D70. I opted for the D300s. Not the best, certainly not the least either. Its 12 Mpixel chip together [...]

To summarize; had several mishaps with trailer, motorcycle, back….. new car has a scratch already (no note as to who did it, of course), walked through a [...]

So I opened an account on Fine Art America a while ago, and today started adding some thrilling (I think) pictures into its database. FAA has some nice products and good printing technique. I added a [...]

Dad’s Army !

Do you remember the British comedy series Dad’s Army, with Captain Meanwaring, Sergeant Wilson, Corporal Jones, private Walker and all those other characters? The Home Guard group is re-enacted every year during the Goodwood Revival at the Goodwood Estate and Race track near Chichester on the south coast of England. Last September I shot some [...]

Some of my photos on Woophy

Yesterday I found a new photo site, called Woophy. (World of Photography). Founded by some Dutch guys, too. The idea is to fill the site with photos from (amateur) photographers and cover the world! When you go to the front page (map) you get a world map with coloured dots on it. Each dot is [...]

    The ‘rest’ of the bunch of dark-ish photos is HERE on FACEBOOK. )if that works for you). These were taken with my old Minolta Dimage 7, under bad atmospheric circumstances (British rain), rather late in the afternoon. But impressive nonetheless and I wanted to share them anyway.

Wonderful Photo Site

In the ‘series’ of ‘what I look at on the Internet’ here’s a web site I particularly like. It is called 1x.com and shows beautiful photos by a large number of photographers. Click here to see. And now, ladies and gentlemen, I have to get back to my bookkeeping AND check on our Dutch speed [...]
