Dancing Mexican beauty
This picture is taken from a
dancing Mexican group in Puerto vallarta.
The dance was a typical
Mexican dance, I'll edit this post later on when I remember the name.
I think the sepia colours make it interesting with the light and the dancing position from the other actors on the stage.
Enjoy this Friday picture.
I've edited it with Photoshop Lightroom and Photoshop.

B&W office furniture.
How does your office look like? That's always a very important question among all office workers..
Everyone has their own style of course and everyone is happy with their office, but just wanted to let you guys now about our office details..
I like those pictures because they're abstract and have something to say about the place.. if it's full of light or not..
Enjoy..

Time Lapse video in Deinze
I’ve uploaded 2 Time lapse videos to Youtube and Vimeo, both in 1080 HD resolution.
So you can have a look which one is better for Flash implementation, as well since the last upgrade from Youtube to support for 1080 and as well with the use of the Desktop up loader from Vimeo, what works flawless for the moment..
The only thing is that the image is quite dark, didn’t check it on a windows PC and on my mac it was perfect. But I’ll be upgrading and making the images lighter this week.
Cheers and enjoy,

Travelling: Beauty of Honduras
With the latest problems in Honduras it’s easy to forget about a very important part of the country, the tourism.
It is indeed one of the poorest countries in the region and South America but it’s plenty covered with beautiful spots all over the country. I would like to invite you guys to explore with me the beauty of the country and the persons within the Gallery I linked to this Blog post on Flickr.
Travelling in Honduras: Tegucigalpa
The capital of Honduras, Tegucigalpa, is build upon many hills and very steep hills sometimes but it’s definitely a very interesting place with sometimes a tremendous difference between the old classical Spanish style and the latest buildings from western companies whom are using low wage workers to make their products.
Travelling in Honduras: Caribbean coast.
If you go towards the coast you come to see the rolling green hills with the local flowers before you get to the Caribbean sea. This is when you get to the beautiful blue colored sea with the islands just a short boat trip away.
The local population is very charming and welcoming to tourists and are happy to share with you the beauty of their country.
Do you have a Honduras travel experience? Please share it with me in the comments.

Panoramic Landscape Bruges
Bruges is one the eldest cities in Europe, and it’s straight stunning that they have been able to keep the spirit of the old city for such a long time.
This panoramic landscape picture of Bruges is taken at night with the beautiful city light in the central market.
It is in the centre of Bruges with plenty of bars and restaurants..
I hope that you guys like this night panoramic landscape from Bruges and let me know in the comments what you think..
Cheers

Gebruik van zoekwoorden metatags in Google, Yahoo en Bing.
Na veel discussie over het feit of een zoekwoord metatag nu wel of niet word gebruikt heb ik besloten om mijn eigen testje op te zetten.
In mijn persoonlijke pagina heb ik een zoekwoord metatag ingevoerd met 1 zoekterm die niet in de tekst van mijn pagina tevoorschijn komt.
Ik heb gekozen voor het zoekwoord “JaapWillem WordPress”, met www.jaapwillem.com geïndexeerd in alle 3 de zoekmachines.
Wanneer ik dus deze exacte waarde zoekt in Google, Bing en Yahoo voor mijn website zie ik dus het volgende resultaat:
- Google: Geen waarde gevonden.
- Bing: Niks gevonden
- Yahoo: Komt met de correcte pagina tevoorschijn.
Dit betekent dus dat Yahoo nog steeds de zoekwoord metatag indexeert terwijl Google en Bing deze niet meer indexeren..
De vraag is natuurlijk nu of het interesant is om alleen voor Yahoo een zoekwoord metatag in te voegen en ook in het licht van de opkomende veranderingen met de zoekmachines.
In mijn opinie kunnen we de zoekwoorden metatag laten vallen en zal het veel schelen in het werk.
Wat is jullie opinie?

Just wondering what each ones work flow for Google Wave is..
I have at the moment 2 favorite views..
- One with 3 to 4 conversations open. This is for the moment I’m really into the productivity and need to collaborate with everyone..
- One with no conversations visible but all hidden into the top from the page. This is the moment when I leave I like to have everything clean and I can see when I come back which ones had comments on them. It is indicated in Green
Which one is yours??
Give me a feedback in the comments or on Google wave… jaapwillem at googlewave dot com

Image French Pharmacy
Just saw the other day this picture in my library and every time I’m always intrigued.
I don’t know, but it gives me always a very warm feeling to see one. It looks like one out of the old cartoons where it still is like it used to be during the beginning of the 1900…
So I would like to introduce you this edited photo from a french pharmacy, made in a cartoonish style image.
Let me know what you think,
Cheers Jaap Willem

Now I think it’s becoming more and more official.. And I think it’s a real pity but Yahoo HATES public opinion.
I write this article with boiling blood, because Yahoo is taking more and more control over Flickr and they clearly do not understand the Flickr motivation.
Way back in the time we loved Flickr because they where cutting-edge and had a great community ..
Now the community is going down.. more and more people are moving towards other sites, like SmugMug and even Picasaweb..
From a technical point of view, few things have changed lately, the last major addition is the addition of Video.. and that only for 1:30 minutes..
Lately there’s a trend from Flickr to start to intervene into community discussions, one of the biggest fails was the Laughing clown which was similar to Obama. Now the latest is the erasing of posts and intervention within the Yahoo groups..
So I would like to refer to this article from
Thomas Hawk and face the facts that Flickr soon will be a community without community..
Give it a look and share this with your friends, colleagues etc.. and stop using Flickr, there are many more interesting photo sites on the internet..
Cheers Jaap Willem
