The Grand Route

Some first captures with the Ricoh GR Digital I. Not the one I tested in September and the camera being reviewed by Cristian Sorega. No, this is the original one which was released in 2005.

Looking for street

28Nov09

Just last week I was with my family in Amsterdam visiting science center Nemo. While going back to the Central Station I had finally a chance to try my Canon 10D for some street photography.

The autumn is a pretty strange season. Colors changing, trees loosing its leaves. At some point all color is gone. What is left, is real, and not always pretty.

Low light, the last glow. And for me hopefully time for a change. Too be continued….

In the dark

21Nov09

I had been tempted to push these photographs in B&W, but in the end decided to keep them in color. The available light and the last glow of the sunset eventually did it for me.

Today I visited the opening of a wonderful photography exhibition in my local town, “Hopend op Mededogen” (Hoping for Compassion).

And it was a great opportunity to meet some of the photographers who I already knew from flickr (Annemarie and Dorine van den Berg), but never saw in person.

And for those interested in some more information about the new Ricoh GXR, check out this thread on a French forum (thank you Cam!).

Hope to post more later.
