Eveninglecture 15 november 2010 with Jesus Miguel Muel De Dios

Avondlezing
Evening Lecture
Jesús Miguel Muel de Dios

As we call him Muel.
Knowing his name represents something special: 'de Dios' means 'from God',
we can expect something special this evening.
Muel is a photographer I know as a very good friend and photographer.
We met in the year I was judging the Spanish Valencia competition and doing a lecture
at the convention.
I did not know his work, nor his name or his existence.
Judging one of the most 'moving' pictures I ever saw, I was overwhelmed by emotion.
This image won the category.
At the evening of the awards dinner I was going to the conference centre, walking up to the building. I saw a person standing. Like first love we looked at each other and were already friends. That is how I met Muel.
Now it happens that in this awards-evening the image I wanted to win came up, and only than I knew it was Muel's image.

Muel is a very gifted and very pure photographer. His communication, his being as a person is already an experience to meet.
He is a very warm personality, and that shows in his images.
Muel is one of those photographers that I would say is a true artist.
Always experimenting, but also aware about the realism to make money for a living.
His struggle between the two worlds will never end.

In Spain he is known very well for his creative being, and rewarded a lot of times.
He jokes a lot with his colleagues, his English is 'broken Spanish English' but very well to understand.

The beauty of Muel's Nude photography (he has one of himself on his website), is that it is very much like normal. No glamorous over retouched imaging, but just as it is.

Do not miss this unique photographer.
Only 30 places ! On first come bases.
