I'm dreaming!!!!

I live quite near a train station. And it takes me only 6 / 7 (or 8...) minutes to go Schiphol (airport). Sometimes I just go to the airport to check out some magazines and wander through the halls and mingle with all these travelling people. I'm acting like I'm a tourist in Amsterdam myself, but I'm actually chilling at this hotspot and wonder where all these people come from and whether they have just been arrived or are leaving this city...
And then I go back home...back to the reality.

These boats

Over the next three days I will post a series of pictures of a boat trip to a small town, next to Amsterdam, called Ouderkerk aan de Amstel or just Ouderkerk. All photos were taken with the trusty Rollei 35 camera. I forgot the exact date but it was on a sunday...somewhere in september. Yeah...

#3

Y. (Notice the sharp paper cups...yeah, I think I was sitting a little bit too close to Y.)

#2:

Oh boy...the right side of this picture got in touch with the light and so, it looks like it's burning! Almost acting like a vampire. Hahaha...okay.

#1:

Tim & Mira (no boyfriend / girlfriend. Just very close friends. Literally.)

It's about that time

This is a lazy sunday post. I hope you'll forgive me for this...

I'm getting busier by the day and everyday I'm closer to where I am going to be for the rest of my life.
I try to walk the right path and make the right choices and I try not to waste anymore precious time.



Do you think you're on the right track?

I don't know

(a quote from my all-time favorite movie: Lost In Translation):

CHARLOTTE (Scarlett Johansson):

"I just don't know what I'm supposed
to be. I thought maybe I wanted to
be a writer... but I hate what I
write, and I tried taking pictures,
but John's so good at that, and mine
are so mediocre... and every girl
goes through a photography phase,
like horses, you know, taking dumb pictures
of your feet..."


Clockwise from the left: M., T. and...me.

Devil In a New Dress

Ah....,

Mr West just released a new track and it's called Devil In a New Dress.
Finally a tune which is worth listening to...I didn't really liked his (overhyped?) first single 'Power' of his new soon-to-be-released fifth studio album: Dark Twisted Fantasy (formerly known as Good Ass Job).
I like this new track because it carries an old skool vibe with this haunting female vocal sample. :)

Check out the tune by pressing the play button. :)

(Oh...and you can even download it here, if you wanna feed your iPod / iPhone / iMac (or oldskool PC...) with some new cool music.)
But...you're probably not into Hip Hop, am I right? What's YOUR favorite kinda music? :P I bet you only listen to Lady Gaga ....

Black White in the mirror

I better stop taking pictures because my sister is becoming a way better photographer than me...damnnnn!


Perhaps it has something to do with the kind of (vintage, of course) camera (our mother's camera!!) and the special black & white film she used.

Isn't this the best picture you've ever seen on this whole blog? It's ridiculously beautiful. Taken by my sister in Spain.

Thanks sis...for making me feel bad...yet, giving me new inspiration and motivation to become a better 'Moment-freezer' (photographer).

Pretty much everything

A few weeks ago I went to the exhibition of duo Photographers Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin at FOAM museum in Amsterdam:


My friend Danique in the front...and other visitors in the back. :)


This picture got removed from my Facebook page by Facebook...(what's the big deal???)!




Go see it now...('till the 15th of september!) it's worth every penny.

Cop dat shit

Ugh...

I know, I know...I'm not a cool blogger anymore. I've been around the web you know: facebook, facebook, flickr, facebook, flickr, but I just didn't know what to post on my blog. You see...I'm actually not a blogger at all. I just like to wander 'round my city and do things I shouldn't be doing, or go to cool events, parties or just hanging out with my buddies. And occasionally post some pics of these things on the blog. But, lately, I feel like I should be spending some more time and energy on the things I really LOVE: photography and music.

-SIGH- I'm losing my visitors (!!!) and it's all my own fault. But, I don't care about the amount of (unique) visitors per day...I just wanna read comments on my posts. That's all. :) I'm longing for e-mails and comments on my blog. Hahaha.

Enough bla bla bla...let's do someting naughty:


My and my sister on Skype...while listening to Tame Impala. (Taken with Olympus OM-10 and some cool Lomography cross over film)

Tame Impala is a psychedelic rockband from Australia. I wish they would come out to play in my city because they are just the best. And this is coming from a hiphop & electronic music lover pur sang. :)
Click here to download their album Innerspeaker and their self titled EP. I've been playing their album non-stop for months now and it's one of a few albums on which I don't have to skip a song. Because e-v-e-r-y song is...excellent. If you're into good music...listen to this!!

By the way, I've been posting new pictures on my flickr...

On tha streets...with R.S.

About five weeks ago, I asked her if she would help me out with some ideas I've had for this photography competition.



Unfortunately, they didn't choose any of the pics I took of her, but only picked out a few other ones: 1, 2
