The Nieuwkoopse Plassen

August 28th, 2009

Two days ago my mom, my oldest brother and I went to the Nieuwkoopse Plassen for a boat trip.
We hired a small silent motorboat with which we could enter the area.
My brother and I both had our camera with us so we shot quite some photos together, mostly for practice and some for sheer fun.

I quickly came to realize that it’s not that easy to take photos from a moving boat. Whenever I saw something interesting to try and make a photo of I had to be really quick to get it right.
The boat going up and down was also something which turned out to be quite annoying. Sometimes the subject was a lot more to the bottom of the photo then I wanted and sometimes it was just blurry because of sudden movement.

It was a very nice afternoon though and since we spent about 4 hours in that boat I also had plenty of time to just relax and lie around (like a pirate who doesn’t do anything).
Some of the photos I made turned out quite well, so I would like to show a few of these to you.

The Incredible Hulk Signature

August 7th, 2009

Here’s a signature I made for a small contest I participated in.
I don’t do a lot of signatures nowadays because I find they aren’t as much fun to do anymore, so whenever I do make a signature I always try to practice a new technique to make it fun.
In this signature I used a few C4D renders and tried working with Gradient Maps. I think it turned out ok, although not everyone agrees on me with that. Then again, I don’t do this a lot and tastes differ.

Practice in the Ridderkerkse Gorzen

July 24th, 2009

Yesterday evening I went out with a friend to practice some nature photography in the evening.
It was really fun to do, we chose to go to a nice spot close to where I live.
The spot did turn out to be very nice, though it was a bit more jungle-like then we expected as it turned out to be less cared for as we thought.
Nevertheless we went hiking through our very own dutch jungle using our tripods as a machete and I have to say it was very much worth it.

The evening light was very tricky to work with, we both had quite some photos which turned out to be slightly blurred when we viewed them on our computers.
Luckily enough there are also enough photos which I really like, and I will share a few of those with you.

Uploaded the first photos

July 9th, 2009

I just finished uploading uploading the first few photos to Picasa, so you can now view them on the site.
The photoshop collection will follow later.


And we’re online!

July 9th, 2009

After a troublesome install on the new host I’ve finally got this site fully running.
This site is now fully powered by Wordpress which makes it a lot easier for me to keep it up to date with newest photos and such.
I’ve also made a Picasa account on which I will upload the photos, this site will simply link to those.

If anyone wants to know, my Picasa username is Judobreaker.

As you all can see there are not many images or pages on the site yet and some things are still in the wrong settings, but that’ll be changed in the comming few days.
I am gong to upload a bunch of photos soon and add the necessary pages.
Also, I will install an improved RSS system which enables you to add pages to your RSS feed easier.
