Intermezzo: The 4 Lego Boys
Posted by Illuci (Hurdegaryp, Netherlands) on 4 March 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.
Four old friends of mine, giving a concert at the occasion of my one year membership of Aminus3 :). I felt encouraged and supported by co-member e., who kept following me with her comments, even in times when I didn't comment on her pictures. Thank you e., and thank you Aminus3! (Of course I also thank all the other photographers for their beautiful and inspiring photos and their comments on mine).

Awesome! It looks like you're supported by everyone. :) Thank you for the.. well.. thank you. It's also a pleasure for me, because I learn a lot from looking at your photos and looking at what works. I feel like in the time I've spent in this community, I hope my photography has slightly improved. :) Keep it going! Oh and if you ever have a chance, send me one of those shirts! They're awesome.

Thanks, e, I'll see what I can do. If I look at my first pictures I also see an improvement. I'm honored to hear that somebody learns from my pictures, I do the same from yours, your idea of the lonely crow I found fascinating; I can imagine however that some people might find it a bit monotonous, many times I have that "problem" too, that I see: this is awesome, but that I have second thoughts on how others might find it. I decided to go my own way and if people reject it, it's their taste. So many people, so many tastes! About the shirts: I'll ask where they are obtainable, and if I can get hold on one then I send you one. Maybe if you go to Lego on Internet? But I try.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch! U bent gelukkig om goede vrienden als deze te hebben. Ik hoop er niet teveel oude Genever betrokken bij de viering waren!

@vu@granby - Wolfgang Prigge: De oude genever is inderdaad populair in deze viendenclub, maar alles met mate! Dus uw vrees is niet gegrond, dronkenschap komt niet voor. Whisky is ook een gewild artikel, doch ook druivensap en chocolademelk (!) want een aantal kan niet tegen alcohol, of moeten nog naar huis rijden.
Danke vielmals für die Glückwunsch, ich bleibe hoffen dass Sie auch einmal Mitglied der AM3 Gemeinschaft werden mit einem eigenen Blog, wobei Sie natürlich das Granby-blog nicht zu verlassen brauchen. Aber es ist Ihre Wahl, und das respektiere ich.

The third guy over looks like one of the three stooges. :) Erik, you ARE one of the coolest guys I've met. Smart and kind all the time. Everyone should check out your blog. You're a great role model and a top notch person. And a great photographer too! ;) I look forward every time to checking out your blog.

@HorseRotorVator: I always keep in mind that someone you know from a blog you know only partly - my friends and family and colleagues certainly see my deficiencies, at the most you can say that I portray myself as a nice guy :), but thank you for your qualifications which make me blush ... I checked the portraits of the 3 stooges and now I understand why his face seemed to be familiar when I first met him, of course!! He is BTW also a very humorous person.

Their shirts are cool. I bet they were a joy to hear!

Hi Iluci, what was the song they were singing? Proficiat met je éénjarig jubileum. I enjoy you being my brother on this blog . Thanks for inviting me on AM3.

@the lightwriter: They are members of my club, and I can't remember the song anymore but I'm sure they have it recorded somewhere, I'll ask for a copy. AM3 keeps also contacts between us vivid for which I'm glad.

Congratulations ! You ought to be proud of your achievement.
This is a great picture as always. It almost appears as though one can hear the music. I must say that your strength lies in taking pictures that breathe, pictures that one can walk into. great work.
BTW, i have left my email address in this comment, so that you can email me the picture of the boats without the gull :)

@Sujit Sudhi: But of course, that I didn't think about it!! This evening I send you the gull-less picture, I'm proud to be able to get it removed with my new gimp program. You see absolutely nothing any more (I mean the gull of course:))
