Photoclub night

            


Tonight at the photoclub a special presentation from photographer Heinz Aebi. He showed us how to make a documentary with photo's. He talked about Robert Capa, Ed van der Elsken and more.... It was an interesting evening.


         

Superstorm Sandy

          

          


Sandy, a huge storm hit New York today. It seems that 8 million people are without electricity and 26 people were killed. Damage repair will cost about 10 trillion dollar a day.
Even Donald Trump's hairdo was severely messed up.

Remember This One?

            


Every now and then I watch the song above on TV.
Grapefruit with 'Deep Water' from 1969 sung by scottish singer Alexander Young.
I found out on Wikipedia that one of his brothers is Angus Young known from the Australian band AC/DC. Alexander Young died in 1997.

Here is the (very cool) song:

Kytumentary

          


I have been watching the documentary 'Kyteman - Now What?' last night.
About Colin Benders, the man behind the Kyteman Orchestra.
Very interesting and very enlightening because I always wondered who this artist is, how he lives, how he thinks. And why his music feels so okay....

Weather Changing

The weather changed this week from summer (Monday, 20 degrees) to winter (last night,  minus 2 degrees), from sunshine to frost.
I took a walk through the park today to watch the trees and the autumn coulours. I also went to see my new house where I will be living during the renovation.

The Voice Battle

Tonight's episode of The Voice Battle is very exciting! My two favourite singers are on stage. Ivar Oosterhuis battled against Inge McGee and won. Marco Oostra sang against Johannes Rypma and he ......................

Oh, there's a commercial break.......

and he..... lost!!!! Wow! Bye bye to Marco and hello to Johannes Rypma. Which is okay! Here's Johannes:


                                       

Prettiest Autumn

         


This autumn is probably the prettiest ever!
I didn't make photo's of it myself yet but I hope I am still on time tomorrow afternoon.

At Work

            


On Tuesday I started to work at the office of the kidney transplant in our hospital.
The new work was not difficult and I like my new colleagues.
I typed some letters and did some archive work.

ANTM cycle sixteen!

              


To my surprise the 16th cycle of America's Next Top Model started last night on Dutch TV! I'm very happy! I love the program!

Model Marie-Louise

On Sunday I did a shoot with Marie-Louise. She is a very glamourous girl.
I posted some photo's on my photoblog:

Harry's Results

Here are some photo's that Harry made. Although the photo's are okay, I feel a little old and wrinkly about myself. Can I not just get younger instead of older?

Shoot with Harry

Photographer Harry visited me today to take pictures of me preparing tomorrow's modelshoot. He also will be going with me and Marie-L tomorrow when we will be shooting for the February issue of the 'Models and Friends' site. So I was model for a day! I have no results to show you yet!

Hi!

Hi! I forgot to write something yesterday. I went back to work yesterday after a short but very nice holiday. In the afternoon I had a training about aggression in the workplace and how to deal with it. We had to learn to confront, to avoid, to compromise, to solve problems, to give feedback etcetera....
And today is the last day of the workweek! A short day, so I could be outside in the sun this afternoon.
The temperature is very high for this autumn season (maybe twenty degrees?).

Maddalena Sisto

            
     


I watched a beautiful documentary about Maddalena Sisto today.
She was an Italian fashion illustrator known by her humoristic way of drawing.
Here is the documentary:

Autumn Garden

This is how my garden looks at the moment. The Japanese Maple is turning red now. And the garden tiles turn green of the rain that fell.

My Uncle Thomas

Today was the funeral of my uncle Thomas.
He died on Wednesday October 10th , aged 93, after a difficult period of five years when he was not really his old self. He was married for 68 years to my aunt G.
I met a lot of my cousins, uncles and aunts and my own mom and dad.
After all it was a good day.

M's Party

On Wednesday we had a party. My colleague M had been working for 25 years for the hospital. We were at a restaurant and had a lot of fun!

Walking on Water

             


I'm walking on water these days.
Because of heel pain I have bought two inlay soles to put in my shoes. They're filled with water to soften the heel pain.
It works!

Style Inspiration

                  
               


I bought the new book of Scott Schuman (the Sartorialist), style photographer, today. It is again full of style inspiration. I love it! Can't wait for the third book!

Later with Herbert

              


In last night's music program 'Later.... with Jools Holland' German artist Herbert Gronemeyer sung a beautiful song: Same Old Boys.
Here it is:

Center Parks - Family

Some more photo's of the family weekend. Aren't we a cute family?

Center Parks - Nature

I've spent the weekend with my family at Center Parks De Huttenheugte in Dalen. It was wonderful. Nature was very beautiful and the weather was fine!
We walked around the lake and made pictures. We've also been swimming in the big tropical pool.

Stormy Friday

I am happy that I don't have to go outside because the weather is very stormy today. A real Autumn Day!

Last Workday of the Week

          


I'm feeling exhausted the whole week.
I'm glad today is the last workday of the week.
Couldn't work another hour.

Later with Jools Holland

          


Jool Holland started his beautiful music program 'Later' again.
My favourite musical program!
Here's a clip from the first evening:
