Ricky...each photo is so interesting even on its own...and the idea to show this life experience was a fantastic one indeed. I love the toning and all the shots and the POV and well all of it..a well deserved series indeed. Congratulations. Phyllis

Ricky Siegers Thank you Phyllis, thank you for your comment. I am quite lucky living in Amsterdam. When most of people quite open and not afraid to express themselves. In this case, trans gender. This is one my wish list to see closely their life. I am so delightful when I am allowed to capture this moment. But I still dreaming to see how they deal with their social life. I am busy with that project now :)

One more time Phyllis thank you :)
Cheers,
Ricky

I'm mindblown by these series Ricky, each one of these are superb on their own and combined together become an outstanding documentary work. This is your very best Ricky!

Ricky Siegers Thank you Nicolas, I like this series too. Not only the pictures but the experience. Being on the location and with all of the scenario and who and how I am going to make it the session work. But in the end I let it flow, and try to be as invisible as I can be :)
