Hi, you're flipping through my Flickr account, my regular photoblog, with day to day digital, analogue and instagram posts.

www.ronaldgiebel.eu is my website, it's my official online photography art gallery, where the most important work is shown.

I studied photography at Sint-Lukas art academy in Schaarbeek, Brussels and I am specialized in reportage and travel photography.

I'm an enthousiast 35mm and 120 film user; film gives the best contrast and light combination and the noise and colour are genuine.

I'm grateful to all of you (early) adapters of the hipster Lomo-trend, who make film photos with plastic crap cameras.

It hopefully forces the film producers to keep on making 35mm, medium format and large film as long as possible.

And I thank all of you who stepped over to digital. Because of this, great analogue equipment is available at fleamarkets and some specialized photoshops for very interesting prices.
