    While going through some slides from my last holiday in France I came across this one...
    I remember this moment so well, the girl was playing with the leaf and her father was standing beside her. I had my lens pointed at her, but gave her dad a look first and he nodded in approval. The first photo I took was just a sec too late and then I shot this one.

    Wow, it's a really nice photo
    Makes me reminisce (sp?) about the innocence of childhood again :D

    Would you think of her growing up to be a though business-woman or a vicious world-leader, when you look at this photo? NO !!! kids are wonderful and we should all return to a child-like state of mind....

    This is a pure photo, so natural, like it a lot
    Thanks for sharing :)

    To be honest, this one doesn't do much for me, but your landscape photos are stunning.

    No I am an Art-teacher at a highschool and also study Cultural Anthropology part-time. I dont make much art these days anymore and mostly shoot photos during the holidays.

    I am looking forward to seeing your website!

    Your images of children are stunning! I especially love the first two photos.Are the children Peruvian or from Nunavut? The landscape photos are breath taking.
    I especially like the little curly haired girl, intrigued with the ripples of the water, almost touching. Or was she pulling away. Is it just me or do I see a murky, blurried vision of a man wearing a fedora also.It's like he's reflected in the fountain, towards top left of her index finger.
    I will check out yourblog. Thanks for posting these works of art.

    By the way, have the colours in that boat image been altered?

    Thanks so much!! The kids are from the peruvian Andes, some really small villages up in the mountains where I did research for my study. Some of them loved to be modelling for me..haha. The little girl was French. She was playing with the water and a leaf and did that very graciously..so had to atke a picture. Dont believe there was a man standing there..?

    Thanks again for the compliment!

    A little bit; i had trouble scanning that pic in, the colors turned out way to blue. So I did put a bit more red and yellow in there.
    The blue was kind of real. I think it has to do with scanning a positive film and the colors of this Velvia film are really bright. Also it was evening, so colors are different then.

    Thanks for liking the landscapes...!!

    Me too! I'm itching to travel again. I liked your avocado animation by the way. It was maybe a little too jerky for me though. Did you use a tripod for your camera?

    I'm just getting to using everything my digi cam does since I got a tripod (statief) for it. It's so easy if you're used to an analogue camera.. On travelling, no need to tell me.. Priority 1 = graduation, 2 = travel!

    most of all i like portraits on the beginning of the thread!
    landscapes are beautiful too, but mother nature helps us a lot with them, right? :) you've been to some incredible places, too.
    it's visible that you're into art, because your composition, colors and how you arrange different plains of the picture (i'm not sure how the last is said in english, hope i made it right) is really good.
