  About me

  I'm Suzanne Smaling, born on December 6th 1986 and currently live in the Netherlands.     

   
              

  My brothers and I are raised with rock and metal music like: Metallica, Guns 'n Roses, Queen, Kiss, Meat Loaf,
  Vandenberg etc.
  As I grow older I developed my taste of music but until this day Metallica is my number one band. Here's a list of
  bands which I currently listen pretty often: 
  *  Metallica
  *  Rammstein
  *  Dream Evil
  *  Circle II Circle
  *  Kamelot
  *  Lord of the Lost
  *  Der Bote
  *  Dragonforce
  *  The Pleasures
  *  After Forever
  *  Kane
  *  Non-Divine
  *  Stratovarius/Kotipelto

 
Photographing is one of my biggest hobbies and I love to combine photographing with visiting concerts.
  For concert photographing I use a Nikon D60 with a AF-S NIKKOR 15-105mm 1:3.5-5.6G ED. For bigger concerts, fun
  photos and short videos I use a Casio Exilim EX-H10.
 
  I founded Rockpics.nl in 2003, I made some photos during concerts and stuff and people started to ask me where
  they could see the photos. In the last years I tried to profesionalize Rockpics.nl for a bit, with making business cards
  and a website with loads of photos, also in the background of the web pages.

  With Rockpics.nl I try to promote bands. One thing is very important to know, Rockpics.nl is a hobby and I only visit
  concerts from bands that I like or that I think that is worth to see and promote them.

  For 2 German bands I've made a Hyves (Hyves is a community like Facebook or MySpace, but then Dutch), feel free
  to join us and help to promote these great bands!

                                         

                                                    


 
My other passion are tigers. Ever since I was a little kid I really love tigers. Founded here in the Netherlands is
  STICHTING PANTERA. Pantera is the only European shelter for big cats. At Pantera I had the change to follow a
  workshop, training tigers. For me this was dream come true. That day I worked with tigers, lions and panthers. After my
  workshop I decided to adopt tiger Chazia.

      SUPPORT PANTERA NOW AND DONATE!
