You might have seen one of these funny looking goggled lenses on a Leica meeting. I never thought these lenses would make your camera look better, but even if you agree with me on that, there is still a pretty good reason why these lenses deserve a place in your gear cabinet. They are sharp […]

Wednesday Wedding Pic: The Amsterdam Canals
Last week I had another fantastic wedding in Amsterdam. When the couple left the venue, the guests had arranged a fantastic goodbye on a small boat. While someone was singing a lovely song, everybody waved the couple goodbye and the groom kissed his bride. Just magical. Leica M240 with 35 cron
Wednesday wedding pic: work in progress
Sometimes it takes four or five persons to get the bride to look like how she wants. And usually it’s chaos and there little room to move around. I love this part of the wedding. It’s just hilarious, but also very serious. Leica M240 with 35 summicron
Tuesday Travel: colors down under
I’m not sure where I took this shot exactly – that’s why a GPS module can be convenient – but it was somewhere in a mall in Sydney. I like the perspective and the colors. Leica M9 with 35 summicron
Tuesday travel: Evita et bella
La Recoletta is one of the most famous cemeteries in the world. Situated in Buenos Aires, it features the most extravagant graves you’ll ever find. It also features the grave of a well know person: Evita Peron. Although she’s been ‘on the move’ quite a bit, long after she died, she has finally found peace […]
Wednesday wedding pic: rainy days
It happens every year on a number of weddings: it just doesn’t stop raining. Fortunately, most couples are smart enough a arrange a bad-weather back-up plan. And for me, I just try to find a subtle way to include some of the weather into my shots. Here’s my wedding website. I am available for destination weddings […]
Tuesday travel: the old man and the sea
Except there’s a young woman, instead of an old man. Still, I like the contemplating setting of this shot. My wife and I were on a short hike in Sydney, when we reached the sea. It had been a long time since we’d seen such a vast amount of water and we just stared for […]
Wednesday wedding pic: the first look
One of the key moments on a wedding is the moment the bride meets the groom. In most cases, the couple hasn’t met yet, and they have no clue what their husband or wife to be will be wearing. Sometimes this moment, often called ‘the first look’ happens in a somewhat dim sleeping room, but […]
Tuesday Travel: Nightfall in Trinidad
Trinidad, Cuba, is said to be one of the best places when it comes to travel photography, but I disagree. Havanna is much better, because Havanna is bigger, busier, more crowded and therefore perfectly suitable for ‘under the radar’ photography. I was happy to stay there only for two days. In fact, the best places […]
Tuesday Travel: Bulbs
I just love this picture. The greasy elements in the background, the greenish colour cast of the artificial light. While it isn’t pretty at all, it does make me smile. I took this shot somewhere in Kowloon, HongKong. Leica M9 with 35 summicron Want to know more about how to use your rangefinder camera on […]
