…there exists a special resonance of our mind which grant us occasional views of a reality that lies far outside of our normal perception, our general knowledge. [Ansel Adams]

“To be a photographer you have to be a child, always full of wonder, looking at the world with wonder. Making a photograph only takes a moment of time, but then you spent the rest of your life figuring out what it means.” [Leonard Freed]


Professional photographer for 25 years, addicted to b&w-landscapes, now beginning to explore the possibilities of digital photography...

Some considerations after three month of Flickr:
. Many talented photographers with realy good pics, ideas, technical skills.
. A lot more who have only their mouth wide open, thinking if they have an expensive equipment they are top-guns.

"Explored": It seems tp be quite easy to be "explored" if you have your network. if not you bette take only pics of iphones or girls with soft focus filter. So there is no real worth in beeing explored.

Fret up with groups whose admins arrogate themselves to be top-experts and therefore they are destined to be censors...

Well you fight like the devil to
Just keep your head above water
Chained to whatever you got
That you can’t throw away
And you’re shooting through space
On that river of life that you’re riding
And it’s swirling and sucking you
Deeper on down everyday.
