An introduction, of sorts
Hi, I'm Onno Siemens, a photographer and technology enthusiast based in Amsterdam.
Much of my commercial work involves covering events taking place in Amsterdam. Publications include:
Television
In 2006 I was featured in a "one minute documentary" produced by Coast Productions, filmed by John Pardue and broadcast exclusively on MTV Europe. It was part of a series sponsored by Canon titled "The Shot":
Accomplished photographers share a photograph and the story behind it. The passion for photography combined with brilliant photographic abilities make for remarkable photographs.
It was filmed over the course of a weekend in London and focused on my concert photography.
Geekery
Until a few months ago my daily work involved Unix system administration and development. Having worked for 10 years straight I'm now taking a short break. I built this website using Ruby on Rails. It is served by nginx with the Passenger module behind a Varnish cache.
