Thursday 28/11/2013 Light Painting Part 3 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 :) Wednesday 27/11/2013 The Wet Season Unedited water reflections 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 :) Monday 25/11/2013 AmsterSam Solo Expo Saturday my Solo Expo started at the cafe 'Van de Buurt' in the west of Amsterdam and it was a great night with lovely people and good music, here is the photo album of the evening.

Taken with a Canon 400D. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop. Inspired by the awesomely talented Light Painters Vincent, Wen, and Tim, I've made a first attempt at this beautiful art form some weeks ago, and last night it was time to put up that tripod again, bring out the lights, and spend some quality time with the lovely Miss K and Miss M doing this cool thing that makes everything look magic :) P.s.

Taken with a Sony HX200V. My lovely bike, the awesome Lord Bikenheimer, has been cut loose and brought to the municipal Impound earlier this week due to my stupidity and inability to pay attention to details. Luckily my friend Miss L took the time to bring me there by car to retrieve my bike, so after 24 hours we were re-united, and I almost never enjoyed biking as much as on that ride home...I missed you my steely buddy and I promise I will never let this happen again :) Wednesday 13/11/2013 Art Is Alive!

This Autumn season is really spoiling me with plenty or rain, new puddles get created almost every day and I really have to force myself not to spend all my time hunched over wet spots on the pavement, I mean, really, there are more important things in life then to take photos of wicked reflections, for example...hmmmm, can't really think of anything, maybe I'll come up with something while I'll shoot some more puddles, lol :D Monday 04/11/2013 AmsterSam On Facebook If you haven't done so yet, please go to my Facebook page and hit that 'Like' button, I post fresh pictures there every day, thank you :) Shop Discount Always wanted to have some cool AmsterSam gear?

Taken with a Sony HX200V. I don't know why this is, but I like taking pictures in which strong lines dominates the overall shot, it could be my inner sense of order, or my slight case of OCPD acting up, or simply the pleasure of having things aligned in a certain way, but whatever it is, it often allows me to take pictures that are reasonably easy on the eye and amuse and entertain me for a while...I hope you like them too :) Friday 01/11/2013 Wicked Autumn Reflection Unedited water reflections of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop. The current weather in the best city in the world is simply perfect for shooting wicked reflections, it rains almost every day, and even though I'm the only one in this country who is happy about that, I bet my level of excitement makes up for at least half of the populations grumpiness induced by the wetness...sorry Holland, it's just too much fun to shoot puddles, lol :D Last Month Last Month |
