Mijn 'stepstones' naar een beter fotografie
Een goed fotograaf wordt je niet van vandaag op morgen. Het vraagt behoorlijk wat werk en inzet.
In de jaren dat ik nu al met fotografie bezig ben, is er geen dag voorbij gegaan dat ik niets bijgeleerd heb.
Ik hou er enorm van om tijdens het bewerken van mijn foto's online workshops te volgen. En niet zomaar van youtube geplukt, maar workshops van de grote namen in de fotografie, allen groot op hun gebied. Een 'klein' overzicht:

Stuk voor stuk topfotografen, expert in hun in specifiek gebied. Ik ben dan ook trots te kunnen zeggen dat, hoewel ieder van hen wel op één of andere invloed gehad heeft op mijn werk, ik mijn eigen stijl trouw gebleven ben en zo een eigen fotografische identiteit heb weten te creëren.
