Last week we featured an image by Niels Koopmans in our article on Does Film Make You A Better Photographer? and I thought his photoblog needed more exposure. So this week’s Featured Photoblog is borrow a view! Aside from being a fairly active member in the photo-blogosphere, Niels is a tremendously talented photographer from The Netherlands and primarily photographs Urbex (urban exploration). His eye for making the broken down and decayed look rather beautiful and stunning puts his photoblog in the “must subscribe” realm. Go check it out.

When I look at Niels’ photoblog I often wonder how dirty and grungy his equipment can get. Then I come across an article written by Canon Blogger. Jason Anderson writes about cleaning your gear and how he has essentially turned it into a ritual. Not a bad idea, especially if your photography has you parading through old abandoned buildings.

Because cleaning your equipment is very important here are a couple more articles that touch on the subject:
