AurelioZen's photostream
|
One day I'll reach the state of photographic Nirvana and become able to go out without a cam, make mental images, come home, recline in a chair while reviewing my mind’s work and think “I did some fine photography today”. This will take the interactive fun outta photography though, so until that day I will have a blast keeping on falling for the lure of the newest digital and optical technology and be thrilled sharing my work here with y'all and keep learnin' ;-)
I don't add my pictures to commenting or award groups.
My professional field is policy- and organizational science and community development. In my photography I’m inspired by architecture and the street..... and there's always a certain amount of graphism at play.
I went digital in 2001, bought a dSLR in 2006 but still found myself frequently using bridge and compact cams 'cause they're less bulky and more versatile in use. The Lumix G1 I acquired 3,5 years ago, brought the bridge cam and classic dSLR together in a great packakge of usability and quality. It started a new generation of cams that contrary to my expectations didn't relegate the classic dSLR to the realm of the dinosaurs - because the image quality still lags behind a bit and because the usability of the most recent dSLRs was hugely improved by the introduction of the tilt & swivel screens. The consequence: the cam I use most now is a Canon 60D.

"Bert heeft een heel andere kijk op het leven dan ik, denk ik. Dat vind ik in zijn foto's terug. We delen de liefde voor architectuur! Ik maak vrij conventionele foto's , Bert kijkt er anders tegenaan. Zeer leerzaam en mooi omdat te volgen! Leer er veel van. Blijf zo doorgaan met je eigen stijl!"

"Always inspiring.
There is no one quite like AurelioZen. His pictures are constantly enthralling and challenging, humane and humorous. 'No one' is not an exaggeration... if you see anyone who can produce such exhilarating, scintillating architectural photos, and then seize the same geometry and beauty in an action shot, and then use all those skills for the most revealing and humane spontaneous photos on the street, please let me know. Till then Aurelio will stay my most valued and inspiring contact."5th March, 2007

"A true master of composition, light and color. And a faithful, attentive and eloquent commenter on his contacts' pictures. Both characteristics make him one of my most admired and appreciated flickr friends.
I love to see the world through his lens.
And one of these days I will submit a change request to flickr staff for an auto-fave mechanism of Bert's pictures..."7th February, 2007
