Passionate about photography ... discovered the magic when I got my iPhone in March 2010, since june 2010 I also shoot with my Canon 400D. My lenses are the awesome Canon 50mm f/1.8, one Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 and finally the not much used Sigma 50-150mm f/2.8.

I do take a whole lot of pictures!!! I also upload a lot of pics from time to time ... and sometimes I change my mind and delete them again ... so - don't mean to be rude if I delete pics that you've commented on or faved - It's just me being a little ambivalent!!! 8)

Love it when a photograph has soul, seems genuine and even more if it has this organic quality ... And I love that thrill when sometimes a photograph makes your heart beat a little (or a lot) faster! I'm afraid I don't care much for HDR ... 9 out 10 times it's used it kills the soul of the image I think ...

I really enjoy Flickr, and find it to be a place of inspiration ... thanks to the many wonderfully talented and generous photographers in here.

Also : I will do my best to get around to visit your streams and comment on your work whenever I have the time for it. However - I WILL sometimes miss out on some great pictures ... then please please feel free to ask me to have a look if you really want my opinion ... :))

After all - this IS supposed to be FUN - riiiight ... ?? ;)

Please do not use any of my pictures without asking me first!

Hope this provided a little insight into me.

Thx for visiting!
