I go where the time goes my fear and troubles tell me anxiously — running out of time take a look and you will see me on the ground searching for strawberries, coffee and things behind the sun as well the movement of the rain yet my chest started pounding because I found flowers behind the moon #printart #printmakersofinstagram #printmaking #artwork #createeveryday #doitfortheprocess #creativityfound #creativitychasers #artist #artisinal #artisan #analogphotography #silvergelatin #artphotography #darkroomwork#shootfilm #conceptualphotography #contemporaryart #contemporaryartcollectors #handmade #visualpoetry #darkroomphotography #magicrealism #darksoulpoetry #classicphotography #gelatinsilver #surealism #surrealphotography #fisheyelemag https://www.instagram.com/p/CqTYFURI0FC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Luckily I daydream enough to have autumn 365 days a year… These are leaves falling of a tree and taken away by a gust of wind. :) #silvergelatin #silverprint #silvergelatinprint #visualartphotography #visualpoetry #contemporaryart #contemporaryartcollectors #analogphotography #printmaking #printmaker #artisan #artisinal https://www.instagram.com/p/CqGVBnLo1ib/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

At the moment I am in my printing phase of my project. I’m trying to print as much as possible and as good as possible. It’s not always easy, and especially with the more special prints it gets trickier and trickier. Not only that, but paper is also super expensive so mistakes are things you rather not make. This particular print is made in the darkroom and I’ve toned it with selenium and stained it with tea. But the project I going somewhere, and I think when I am done printing the project is done. And that feels good and it’s going to be lovely. :) #handmade #silvervisionfilm #phasesmag #bnwminimalismmag #ndmagazine #bnw_greatshots #bnw_mood #artisartcommunity #imaginarymagnitude #filmlandscape #ilfordphoto #shootfilmmag #dreamersplace #surreallandscape #bnwbutnot #nowherediary #minimalzine #pellicolamag #gominimalmag #somewheremagazine #ifyouleave #contemporaryphotography #fineartphotography #paperjournalmag #noicemag #thisaintartschool #conceptualphotography #abstractphotography #artphotography #contemporaryartcollectors https://www.instagram.com/p/CpFJC2UIG_o/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Moon on silver gelatin. Paper used is @ilfordphoto fiber warmtone with a slight selenium tone. Photographed with the crazy crazy crazy 1000mm Maksutov lens. And no fancy sky tracking equipment.

Some of the variations of this photograph of my many many many printing sessions I had in the darkroom the last two weeks. I liked the normal version. But I want “normal” with some prints. And I want a dream world with others. And this oak bark and selenium toned prints are getting there. Now I have to wait for another batch of paper before I can continue printing. Because the more I print, the more the project starts to make sense… #nowherediary #minimalzine #broadmag #taintedmag #pellicolamag #gominimalmag #somewheremagazine #ifyouleave #dreamermagazine #imaginarymagnitude #portbox #onbooooooom #paperjournalmag #phroommagazine #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #shootfilmmag #indiependentmag #magnificomagazine #contemporaryphotography #contemporaryart #fineartphotography #paperjournalmag #noicemag #thisaintartschool #conceptualphotography #abstractphotography #artphotography #lensculture https://www.instagram.com/p/CoXuCkqoG8g/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A colour blinds man attempt to colour photography... Last weekend we had beautiful winter landscapes in the Netherlands. And for me, as a colour blind dude, it even looked gorgeous. I met up with other Chris @chrisvkphotography and he had the idea to rise extra early and go deep into one of our nature reserves close by where we live. Before I left I noticed a 120 roll of colour film lying around and decided to take it. The roll I bought actually for a totally different purpose. But more on that later… My eyes can’t see colour. Well at least not properly. It is not that I see black and white, but I have no idea what I am looking at when I go out in the world. It is one big enigma to me… Every test that I do says that I have a different kind of colour blindness. So let’s just say it is just weird. Despite that, my favourite colour is red. I think… So this is the result of my playing with colour on a early morning. See it as a Christmas present for people who are curious what happens. P.S. Before you comment on this post with remarks like: “You should shoot colour more often“, or anything similar… I appreciate it if you don’t. Those kind of remarks make me highly uncomfortable. Photography for me is about expressing myself, and how harsh it sounds I don’t press the shutter button and print for someone else. I do it because I love it and for me. That I have an audience is a wonderful bonus. :) Even if I could see colour I believe that colour is highly overrated if you don’t know what you are doing and achieving with certain palettes. From a functional standpoint. Colour correcting or matching socks is not something that I will ever achieve in life. :) Colour has a very limited place in my life, and I just look at the world differently than most people. And yes, sometimes a tear is shed that I never ever will be able to do certain things in life or see certain things. On my blog you will find bigger version of these photographs. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmi-RzDIDve/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I wrote… if I could give you roses I would give them every morning when you wake up sad and if I could give you kisses I would give them right before you head out for bed but I can only give you leaves of autumn to leave ripples in your pond of memories that most likely will never be so please forgive me for trying because there are days that I remember and I know I’m broken too… #monochromephotography #contemporaryphotography #blackandwhitephotography #bnwphotography #photographersofinstagram #blackandwhitephotography #artistsoninstagram #analogphotography #silvergelatin #silvergelatinprint #workinprogress #photodauteur #photographiedauteur #contemporaryartcollectors #PHmuseum #photoworks #itsnicethat #somewheremag #nowherediary #fisheyemag #WTNS #artspace #pellicolamag #artclassified #setantabooks #aperturefoundation #wulmagazine https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl4LpzgIJqr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Always convenient to have photographers as friends who try out your camera. Now I finally have a proper photograph of myself haha.

[—>] I’ve been photographing on this project for a year now and not have shared super much about it. Just a photograph here and there. But there already has been plenty made, and still a giant pile of film to develop. Also since I am a firm believer in that the print is just as important as the photograph itself and that takes time… Working out concepts. Sourcing new paper as well as old. See how the silver reacts while developing with the old and new papers and toning and staining. And if it sucks you have to start all over again… The print you see here in the frame is just a proof of concept and that already takes plenty of time to make… The end result will be better and a bit different. I just wanted to see if I could do this. :) Right now it’s evaluating and see what kind of photographs I want to add to the project and diversify. And in the downtime some writing is also done. So if you are curious where I am at, at the moment regarding my work. This is the current status. Now back to work… Plenty of hard but fun and satisfying work. :) #nowherediary #minimalzine #broadmag #taintedmag #pellicolamag #gominimalmag #somewheremagazine #ifyouleave #dreamermagazine #imaginarymagnitude #portbox #onbooooooom #paperjournalmag #phroommagazine #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #shootfilmmag #indiependentmag #magnificomagazine #contemporaryphotography #contemporaryart #fineartphotography #paperjournalmag #noicemag #thisaintartschool #conceptualphotography #abstractphotography #artphotography #lensculture #contemporaryartcollectors #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/ClbA3pwIX7C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
