After more than two years out of the blogging scene, i'm back.

In the past i had a photoblog. Disappointed that there wasn't much constructive criticism i did quit. But now a days i work hours on pictures and there are a few people that see them. i always kept my photosite online. (www.marinusphoto.com) But that site did turn out to become a kind of blog and i did decide to clean that up to a max of 20 pictures Still have to clean that up.

I opened dreamweaver again and started to make the new set up for the blog. But this time different and not only focused on pictures.

I am immigrating to Canada in the future, to live with my love LeRoy and want all my friends and family, who i gonna leave behind to see what i do. Specially mom and dad. That's why under the photo is a daily text. In the future when i am in Canada i will translate does English texts into Dutch,so mom can read them too.

Currently i live in Eindhoven (de gekste) in the Netherlands.

You have to scroll down on the daily post to read, but i think they otherwise distract the photo and didn't want a new page for them. think otherwise people get lost in the menu. The comment page is already outside on another Url and that is a bit inconvenient sometimes but that's the only way i could do it. your free to comment on every days post. I like constructive critics but its ok to when you only wanna say that you like it or not.

Mainly i work with my Hasselblad 501 and swallow 120 roll film. (80% B&W) using a Carl Zeiss 80mm Planar and a Carl Zeiss 150mm Sonnar. I develop my own B&W film and although i can print as well i scan the images. After scanning i Photoshop the images. Stamping hours scanned dust.

LeRoy left me his old Canon rebel Although the Rebel still feels like a stranger its a good way to experiment on a low budget, be a bit more all round on a photo run and makes it easier to post a photo daily.

There is also a recipe page in this blog. I post my own recipes illustrated with my own pictures. You will find a link on the link page. it get about 1 post a month. But the set up is that i will have a little cookbook in a few years.

Sometimes people ask me if photography is my job. I wish it was and hope it will be in the future.

Some of the little turtles , are interactive and bring you to another spot in the site/page. Mostly used for next image , previous image and go to daily text. You can see if a image is interactive by moving cursor over it and it wil change.

This is a interactive/rollover turtle: interactive turtle

This is a normal turtle

Feel free to stroll around on my site. I hope you enjoy it.

Greetings.
