My photo published on a baseball site

2008-07-03T07:47:38Z

Yesterday we went to a baseball game in Holland. It was a training game between 2 Olympic teams, the Dutch versus the Cubans.

I know we wouldn't have the best place to make pictures, but I took my camera with me to the game.

Next to me there was a very nice man, Pim van Nes. He told me he was writing for some baseball sites and if I have some photos for his article I could sent them to the sites.

So when we came home I edited a couple of photos and sended it to the baseball sites.

This morning when I woke up I saw that one of the sites used one of my pictures.

I'm very happy to see one of my pictures published

My New D300

2008-03-03T10:58:22Z

I started my photography career with a Nikon D70. I bought one after my vacation to Costa Rica. You read it right after my vacation, normal people just do that before they go to such countries, but I did it after.

To be hounest I wasn't that crazy about photography in that days, I just liked making pictures, but that was it.

But when I came back from that vacation (it was also my honeymoon), I was so dissapointed in the pictures we made with the point and shoot camera, that I immediately ran to the store and bought a reflexcamera, the D70. That was in the beginning of 2004.

I started to like making photo's more and more, but it was all in Automatic. So when I decided to do a photography course in april 2007, I became so enthousiastic, that I bought a Nikon D200.

Nikon D300

And then Nikon announced the D300. I only had my D200 7 months, so why buy a new camera......, I decided not to buy one.

In the meantime two people from my photography course bought a D300.

The results were great. Beautiful colours and very sharp.

My doubts came back. And after I was invited to try it one day, I was gone.

So I bought one two weeks ago. What a nice camera. I still use the D200 for one of my assignments. But after that I think it will only be my backup camera.............

I also bought the af-s 24-70, but i'm still waiting for that lens.

Nice Game, Bubbles

Nice game

When I don't want to make or edit photo's, I play this game. Widget says: This addictive game is fun and easy to play. Just match 3 bubbles of the same color and clear the field before time runs out! Very nice, but it's indeed easy to become an addict.

My first day at Vox

2008-02-13T16:07:39Z

Today is the first day I started this Vox blog. I was watching the profiles of some members from my CN at Istock and I saw the links to their blogpages.

I find it very inspiring and nice to read about all the things in their stockphotography life. So that's the way I became a Vox blogger in the first place.

I started with stockphotography in may 2007, but I didn't work that hard on my portfolio. In september 2007 I went to a photography course (I'm still following that course till november 2008), and I like photography more and more.

So now it's time to do some work on my Stockphoto portfolio's to make it look like a real job.

In this blog I hope to show you some progress the next months/years in my (stock) photography.
