Holidays in Europe

Our search for snow was quite successful! Maybe for many there is even too much of that white stuff. It sure leaves picturesque scenery and many photo ops. I will upload some in the Landscapes Photo gallery.

Enjoy the Holidays!

Who doesn’t google ones own name every now and than? I did, and look what I found: http://factphotography.com/
Somehow flattering, however I was never asked about this, nor did I agree to Fact Photography representing me in any way. Admittedly my photos that were on display were credited to my name. Unfortunately no reaction to my email with request for information. Ah well, no biggie as long as there are correct referrals.

Goroka Show 2009!

Another amazing display of culture. This year I even had my own stand to sell some PNG photo’s! Unfortunately I could not have a big supply of prints. If you missed out (some were already sold), it is easy to get a reprint organised, and I can mail it to you. Do not hesitate to contact me. Or, have a look at my other shots, or wait for the 2009 goroka show Gallery to be uploaded (it wont be long.. I promise).

Here is already a first glimpse from today

Goroka Show 2009

The Goroka Show is a cultural event (if not THE cultural event) in PNG where many tribes and clans boast there colours while singing and dancing. PNG is the world’s most culturally diverse nation and the Show is a cultural event where different tribes peform their sing sing (dances and songs) in their particular Bilas (traditional dress). It is arguably the largest gathering of indigenous tribes in the world. The staging of the Goroka Show started back in 1957 at the Independence Park opposite the Goroka Main Market. It was first introduced and organized by Australian patrol officers. Nowadays over 100 tribes from all over Papua New Guinea gather in Goroka for the annual festival of traditional dance on the weekend around Independence Day.
