Jaco,

Many are most reminiscent of the Thomas Struth Gallery, Cathedral & Musueum sequences. Well observed and well caught .... once again.

On a totally different tack I would be very proud of the Zorro shot had I been fortunate enough to take it.

Keep them coming.

(I also detect a mini-series of Jaco mini-mirror inserts forming and interesting collection.)

Cheers,

Like the first shot Jaco, and that is clever use of a mirror in PB08 ...

Nice work!

Like this series Jaco, but to be honest I've liked some of the others a lot more, I can't put my finger on it but something is missing in this series compared to some of your other offerings. I really enjoyed the Zoro shot, she looks so scared and he looks like he could eat her alive.

Jaco, I absolutely love seeing your work. Every image you post has a real story behind it. Those gallery shots are brilliant. Looking forward to the next installment.

Many thanks to all of you!
And if you like... some more

Enjoy

My favourite is the first one naturally PB11...
And yours?

jaco, once again another nice set of pictures. Not a lot i can say about these as this is not my scene but i do very much enjoy looking at the pictures you take so well, and i love them.
Well done and keep it up i enjoy seeing new places and the way you capture moments.
Cheers
John

PB 15 then PB18 then PB11 are my favourites in this second set, I like the humor captured in these shots... well for me I find them funny.

Luxury is in the air, I found particularlly funny, but prefered the Zorro shots for the people aspect. Again thanks for sharing your unique take, I find it very refreshing.

There's something about PB08 that keep's me coming back,
The mirror is always pulling my focus to it, which is actually distracting me from the main view of the windmills which are a bit dark for my liking.
I like this idea of the mirror as it looks like your holding a postcard.
If you can give the background a bit more "oof" or boost in the levels then it could turn out to be a winner.
If however this was your intention to have this way then fair enough.
A beautifull set of picture's Jaco, Keep them coming.
Just my 2 cents worth

Needless to say another amazing sequence of shots from a creative master.

Aside from the pics, and for all Aussies, is it not interesting that our erstwhile photographer is clicking away in one of the worlds most famous locations without let or hindrance

Here in Oz, we would have been approached by a sub-species to remove ourself and our ”professional” camera from the gallery, shopping mall, bus, train, street, tree, cave or even our own loo

Jaco, these images are inspirational as are the images on your web site. I really enjoy looking at them. I think PB12 is an absolute winner with the point and shoot stretched out towards the masters painting.

These are two great series.

The candid shots are the best.

sirhc55 you have nailed it, in OZ taking pics of people so candidly would have you locked up or chased along the street.

Do people have so much to hide???

BAck to the pics I particulary like PB15, people going about their everyday lives with action and adventure as their backdrop.

Love the series

MATT

I am very impressed with these images, and very jealous as has been already said people here in Aus seem to hate people taking their photograph or hide their face, so it makes it very hard to get a decent pic!

What settings were used in the time delays? Love the ghostish feel of it and have an idea for it!

Cheers

Scott

Well Done!
Great series!
PB01-PB10-PB13

Love It!

.....Do people have so much to hide???

Yeah! Sometime is really hard to take or to have some good shot!
But if you are accredited.......It easy but not so easy!
Different country, different rules!
But I think here people is not to be accustomed to Photography!
Nothing to hide!

Jaco
Once again Poignant documentary photography rich in colour and social comment. All are very good but i particularly like PB01 and PB13 for their technical skill they deliver, composition and the juxtaposition the static art work that portrays an active social scene of leisure peace and serenity of the past frozen in time and the contemporary scene with all its frenetic motion. Great work!
cheers

this is sure a great lens,very sharp.pb 9 and 11 are my favorites.also tha paintings shots are very vivid.

Fantastic set of images Jaco. You are fortunate to be travelling to these places, and best of all making the most of it as you're taking superb images to remember these trips by.

Such a wide variety of images documenting the different aspects of people/places and society, made all the more surprising by your self imposed 3 rules: ie. no flash, no reframe, no verticals.

Some of the museum interior shots are visibly noisy, I guess not so much a criticism of the photographer but more a limitation of the equipment and a sign that better equipment will make for better images in this case.

Don't forget, I'm living in Belgium... situated at only 270 kilometers from Amsterdam...
Noise is not a problem for the moment, later perhaps...
Thanks for your gentle words

Best regards

G'day,
I really enjoyed going through these, I'm impressed by your views and creative flair, quite inspiring stuff, thanks for sharing these...

Thanks Mudder

best Belgian Regards

Jaco
