My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.

Just some images

/6 Comments/in /by

This weekend we had to visit some customers at the other side of the country, this sounds dramatic but in the Netherlands that means 3 hour drives 🙂 of course I will always carry my camera with me, and sometimes I come home with no images at all (actually this hardly ever happens) and sometimes I think I’m very lucky I brought the camera, this time I think it was a good idea, so here are some of my favorite images from the small 2 day trip.

First a small tip….
Always take your camera, you never know what you’re gonna be able to shoot, even in places you don’t expect it like in this case. I won’t tell you where it was exactly but let’s say it’s the little place where you have time to read your iPad 🙂 I just LOVED the effect the mirrors had and quickly took this shot, I think a model would be awesome in a location like this, although a bit tight 🙂

Oben AC1410 review

/6 Comments/in , /by

One of the things I really hate to drag around is a tripod, I think I speak for many of you. It’s not the using the tripod I use but the hassle to bring it with me, the extra weight etc. So most of the times I will just shoot handheld on a slightly (often much) higher ISO than I should, thinking “Oh my I should have brought my tripod”. So a while ago my search began for a very lightweight tripod that was cheap (I don’t use it a lot), sturdy (I also want to use it with my MF camera), Tall (well I’m not small) and most importantly it had to be small enough to flywith and carry with me everywhere.

 

Of course one could go for a carbon tripod but let’s be honest when you don’t use your tripod a lot and just use it occasionally it’s a load of money and I will never really can justify that, but all the tripods I own now I will never carry with me, enter the Oben AC-1410 4-Section Aluminum Tripod with BA-0 Ball Head. Which at $119.95 is a steal I think. (remember this is including the ballhead/quickrelease and case)
