Hello....

My real name is Gerie....and I live in Holland...I'm 59 and happily married and have 2 lovely daughters!


My Flickr name Quinnbike is because of my (racing)bike.

It is a handmade bike by the name Quinn and bike is obvious!
My bike is red and female....yes...I don't know why and I call her My Red Princess!
I used to make a lot of miles in great speed but since I carry my cameras (Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ-8 and Olympus E-510)on my tours the speed ceased and my view calmed.
The combination is ok to me, because the years begin to count and legs are still willing but not always able ;-).

I especially like decaying buildings, cars and all that's old, skies and castles and nature in common have my interest!
I always try to catch a deeper dimension in my photos than at first glance!

I hope you like my pictures....at least I have great fun with shooting and sharing all good things with you Flickr companions!





You Are a Prophet Soul




You are a gentle soul, with good intentions toward everyone.
Selfless and kind, you have great faith in people.
Sometimes this faith can lead to disappoinment in the long run.
No matter what, you deal with everything in a calm and balanced way.

You are a good interpreter, very sensitive, intuitive, caring, and gentle.
Concerned about the world, you are good at predicting people's feelings.
A seeker of wisdom, you are a life long learner looking for purpose and meaning.
You are a great thinker and communicator, but not necessarily a doer.

Souls you are most compatible with: Bright Star Soul and Dreaming Soul

What Kind of Soul Are You?

See you

Gerie

    "Hallo Gerie,
    deine Fotos sind eine Inspiration. Ganz besonders
    gefallen mir deine phantasievollen Aufnahmen,
    die in mehreren Ebenen übereinander liegen.
    Die Leichtigkeit der Farben und die Atmosphären
    in diesen Bildern ist einmalig!! Man merk sofort,
    dass du nicht nur gerne fotografierst, sondern auch
    Freude daran hast, die Fotos grafisch mit bewundernswerter
    Kreativität zu gestalten. Deine anderen Fotos sind auch
    nicht von schlechten Eltern. Nur weiter so !

    Gruß Herbert vom Niederrhein"

    "I don't remember how and when I first came across Gerie’s photo stream, but from the very beginning I liked his individual style. His amazing photos reflect mystery, silence and something even deeper that is hidden in these great images he captures while riding his bike. I really like his shots as they all seem to have a meaning or a secret implicit message that is to be transmitted to Flick visitors.
    It is an honour to have you in my contact list. Thx a lot for your opinion and suggestions on my pics, I appreciate it a lot. Keep up your great work!"

    "Quinnbike is an excellent photographer, who takes the photo's I should have taken after looking at his photo stream. He takes shots of ordinary objects and makes them extraordinary, while coasting along on his bike. Did I mention he also has a great sense of humor. RIDE ON!!!!"
