Photography is my way to reflect my personal experiences and the way the world is acting on me. The final picture is in my head before I press the shutter release. To get exactly the picture I have in my head, I climb mountains and bring my camera to every possible place in the world. To get the desired touch and to reflect my feelings I manipulate most pictures slightly, using techniques mimicking classic darkroom processes. I prefer a digital approach for that, although film has its special appeal too.

Currently my main focus is on light in its different characteristics in a natural and in urban environment. We are living in a world, illuminated by artificial light. Darkness is banned from our existence. I’m trying to depict that darkness in my photography – and the feelings created by it.

As a self-taught photographer without a formal art education, I’m not following a certain diction or school. So I am open to absorb all new interesting influences and inspiring input.

I do appreciate all kinds of questions, comments and critiques. I’ll try to answer your questions or reply to your comments if possible. Instead of replying with a “thank you”, I do prefer to have a look at your work.
