Photographic sketch book made by the Dutch photographer Jaap Bijsterbosch. Oogenblikjaap means just a moment Jaap, but also eye and view Jaap. So dear visitor, stay awhile and have a look around!
This picture is all about Voyeurism. As you may already know I love to study my fellow travelers when sitting in trains and subways. Here I was also struck by the yellow atmosphere in the Sunday Morning Subway in Milan.
Milan. 11/8/21. 10.30 AM.
Back after a beautiful trip to Rome and Milan with my son. It was very hot in Italy, there were days with 33 C (centigrade) in the shade!
I didn’t take many pictures, having a holiday with my son was the 1st purpose. A decision I did not regret a single moment.

Two self portraits: The b and w one was made during my last week of workshopping at Buitenkunst, in the morning, waiting for a new joyful day to com. (As you can see, I’m never at my best in the morning). The picture of the wave with my faint shadow on it could be a point of discussion. Is it still a self portrait? This kind of question will certainly arise during my next week of giving a workshop at Buitenkunst, which has as main subject Self Portrait. I’m leaving Saturday and I’ll be back one week later. After that I’ll be off for Rome and Milano for a short trip with my sun Jonas, because he successfully passed his exam this spring. So I’ll be back in about three weeks. Stay tuned.

Believe it or not: this little birch tree is standing nearby a small square that is called “Berkenplein”. (Dutch for Birch Square). Reality is sometimes beyond surrealism. Diemen (NL). Berkenplein. 11/08/01. 5.10 pm
The hiding of the eyes in my face in this self portrait gives some kind of a gruesome effect. (Shoot this one while making an evening stroll during my last week at Buitenkunst) Randmeer, 11/7/10, 8.31 pm
