Vanwege Fragmentarische Aard (123) Because of a Fragmentic Nature (123)

Many advertisement posters contain staring eyes. Sometimes they look sternly, sometimes asking, sometimes seductively. Anyway, it is very interesting to see how these looks behave when put into a picture frame, combined with fragments of the surrounding world of the poster. The photographer can use the reflection of the glass of a tram stop shelter. A slightly surreal image can be the result. I’m always searching for that. 

The other photo was taken from a kind of banner in the local supermarket. I am a pretty tall person, so when I stretched my camera could easily reach for the model’s eyes.

Zelfportret # 202-204 (Self portrait # 202-204)

Meanwhile I keep making self portraits. Today number 202-204.

Sometimes I feel like my own bad dream…

Never forget, dear viewer, it is a photograph, it’s not me. I tend to feel very happy.

Diemer Plek # 69 (Sites from Diemen NL # 69)

At the backside of the motor highway that circles around my home town Diemen the combination of graffiti and bare branches & twigs turn the photograph into an almost abstract painting.

I wonder how they got those signs behind those trees. It is a pretty steep slope.

This picture came too late for the exhibition at WV15 next Saturday. I would have loved to use it in the show!
