Testimonials (4)

Joris (Le Chef) says:

"Michiel got me into the whole photography and Flickr-thing through his enthusiasm about seeing the world through a cam. I love to see Amsterdam through his eyes and the humor in his photos and comments.

He has also build up a reputation with his 'puddle photography'. We can now also refer to him as Michiel 'the Puddle-man' Schipper. If you haven't seen his famous puddles yet, take an extra 15 minutes and check them out!"

DubbyUB says:

"Photochiel's work is always good. Often it is brilliant. His reflections, shadows and surreal image manipulations attest to his wonderful imagination. He took a break for a while recently and flickr just wasn't the same without him. He is willing to see magic in the world where others might only see the mundane and he is nice enough to share it with all of us."

doc(q)man says:

"I feel quite an affinity with Michiel. First he lives in the part of Amsterdam I used to love living in, second his and my subject matter show quite a bit of resemblance (he's a better photographer, though, by far!) and thirdly he is my co-admin at " typically Dutch". Always love his original take on his subjects, always happy to visit his stream!"

Thom Bouman says:

"Michiel is photographer with a great eye for composition and detail. I like his stuff and I'm sure he's getting a lot of exposure in the near future.
