Well done!

So very artistic! I can see a lot of thought went into this. And you placed everything just perfectly. Is this another persons poster and you took a photo? Nice...verena

Thank you all for all your compliments,
shooting took me about an hour, photoshop approx the same time. And yes I did make the photo myself. I am a professional photographer specialised in advertising. I had my own studio's for 37 years.

I also uploaded an automotive photo. Title (Buick Park Avenue)
Maybe I will show some more work in the future. Thanks

By the way... the automotive shot I uploaded took me (and my crew of 5 people about 5 days to complete but digital photography was not invented that time.

Hi Cornelius... Stop dreaming (lol).... It's not so difficult, honestly. In the end it's no more than a nicely photograph, simple in composition and just a little bit of Photoshop although manipulating was not only 'not-to-difficult' but maybe also not really necessary.
But hey, nevertheless I'm glad you like it and yeah, of course I feel honored with your compliment. Thanks. EvK

Great capture! nice composition.

Hello Evert....A pleasing composition, with a well balanced exposure....There is no doubt you have explored your subject and breathed new life into it....This can only be done by someone who has had 36 years in the field of photography....Well done Evert....All the best to you....Mick.

Hi Mick, It's nevertheless a commercial assignment, so I just tried to figure out "what" people would like and buy for their livingroom.
Roses 2 is just one of about 30 posters with flowers. Roses1 was in my opnion not that "nice" but it sold over 110.000 copies, Roses 2 didn’t do so well, so you can be sure.
Thank you for the compliment. With regards, evert van kuik

Some truly fantastic images in your gallery (such a pity there are so few)and what a delight to see someone who can create wonderful narrative pictures from photographs.
