Here I post my pictures and experimental images that might or might not, in some form, find their way to my website rensomatic.nl, as well as things I want to remember, that amuse me or have some other capacity to occupy my mind.

"My actual process — on the surface — is not so complicated. I sense, I almost smell the possibility of a photograph. I try to follow the rhythm of the streets. Sometimes I walk through situations, sometimes I hang out. It all depends on what the world gives me. In the afterword to his book “Travelogue,” Charles Harbutt talks about how it’s not only that he’s looking for a photograph, but that sometimes the photograph is also looking for him. I like this notion."

"When something is important to you, it’s worthwhile getting it right. And getting it right sometimes involves missteps and mistakes. With these important things, that’s part of shopping."
False shopping on TOP
“Winogrand was so enthralled by photography that he kept saying yes to the medium, which left him little time or reason to go back and say no to one image over another. Years before his death, when James Enyeart, then director of the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson, invited him to come out and determine which of the photographic prints he’d deposited in the archive could be exhibited and which should be designated as study prints, Mr. Winogrand’s response was characteristically blunt: “You know the difference, don’t you? Now it is your job.”
“Hi Garry. You caught some nice poses here. Biggest problem is I can tell the horizon isn’t straight. It doesn’t look like a hill. Man at right needs to be cropped out. Sometimes I find if I shout right before I take the picture I can get people’s attentions. If you had done so we would have been able to see more of their faces. George MacWilken.”
