Serie: African Wedding
The first kind of project with this camera was an African wedding. This camera together with the Canon 28mm USM 1.8 lens, the Canon 58mm 1.8 lens and last but not least the Canon Speedlite 580 EX II flash unit resulted in the next serie:

Technique: High ISOs
Working with high ISO values was something I always avoided in the Digital world. Just because of those nasty red blurs. Yet, using the 5D mark II, it finally gives acceptable results even above 600 ISO.
Next few photo's were taken at a rainy afternoon between 6 and 7 pm at march 20 Downtown Zwolle, The Netherlands: City Centre.
Another album shows results of High Iso in combination with flash taken inside: 25 year Jubilee.
Technique: Macro Updated June 6 2010
The Canon 180mm 3.5L Macro USM proves for me to be an ultimate lens for Macro photography. Visit the album of 19 photographs in this other world: Flowers & Insects |

Technique: Vital Elements
What makes a photo a story? Many times, small objects not always obvious when snapping (an African term for making a photograph), make up the vital parts of the photo.
The first photograph in the following album barely shows a shoe at the left side. To me it made the story complete! In the second photograph it's more obvious; people like small dolls walking thwarts a plane:
Always exploring new Worlds
