I’ve loved photography since I was about 12, after I received a 110 film camera. The quality of those pictures was not great, but I had fun and learned a little about photography. Then a few years ago, I bought my first digital camera – the one I use presently – a Canon EOS 300D.

Most of my photos are of nature, but I’m trying different styles.
