I added a workshop at the Waterschei coal mine today. The very first time, I worked with a nude model. Pfff… This is hard work. I’m used to working with models, but today was a whole different ballgame. And I realized I still have a long way to go in this sort of photography. But still: a big thank you to the models today, and also to the guys who organized the workshop.
I joined a group of strobist photographers for a day of experimenting with off camera speedlight flashes. Bob, a fellow photographer at Apertura, organized a Belgium Digital shooting day on the matter.
Quite the learning experience it was. But at least some of my experiments turned out fine. Here’s an example:
This was shot with 3 flashes triggered with IR and natural light for the background and hair light.
Thank you Mariana and Iza for the shoot. It was great to have you there! Thanks for your patience.
Found this parking meter in Knokke-Heist today. This is only one of the richest communities in Belgium. They attract a lot of tourists during the summer. And they are happy to have them, as long as they leave behind some money. The display on the meter reads: “parking ticket required only on weekends, legal holidays and school vacations”.
“Only the educated are free.”

I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way
I watch the sunlight dance across your face and I’ve
Never been this swept away
All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze
When I’m lying wrapped up in your arms
The whole world just fades away
The only thing I hear
Is the beating of your heart
‘Cause I can feel you breathe
It’s washing over me
Suddenly I’m melting into you
There’s nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe
In a way I know my heart is waking up
As all the walls come tumbling down
I’m closer than I’ve ever felt before
And I know
And you know
There’s no need for words right now
‘Cause I can feel you breathe
It’s washing over me
Suddenly I’m melting into you
There’s nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe
Being with you gets me that way

Danny Federici, keyboard player in Bruce Springsteen’s E-Street Band, died of melonoma cancer at the age of 58. Danny has been in the E-Street Band for 40 years.
Bruce said about Danny: “Danny and I worked together for 40 years – he was the most wonderfully fluid keyboard player and a pure natural musician. I loved him very much…we grew up together.”
My heart goes out to Danny’s family and the E-Street family. Danny… You will be missed!
Ifhegemeia was on my wishlist since our 1st encounter and Lud and Joy’s PhotokitcheN meeting last year. She wanted to do a fetish shoot with me for a long time. And we finally got around to fixing a date.
The shoot was out of this world. I’ve never made this many photos in a session before: 625 and all of them are great. I’ll have a hard time making a selection.
Thanks girl!!! Let’s do this again very soon.
It’s going to be a busy weekend. Just got back from a studio shoot with Inke, Tanja and Tamara. Shot with all 3 girls last year, and they wanted to come back for another shoot.
Got a lot of help from my friend Stefan Vleugels on this shoot. He brought in fresh ideas and a lot of light. Thanks everyone for the shoot! I got a great series of black-n-whites from the shoot.
Tomorrow, I shooting with Ifhegemeia.
