About me

In early summer 2006, a friend photographer let me shoot with his back-up camera, a Nikon D100, for a serie of outdoor concerts. It was an instant Wow! this is it! How soon can I get my own DLSR!. A few weeks later, it was my own. Since then, it follows me everywhere all the time. I have everything to learn, sure. I shoot for the pleasure of getting back in touch with my creativity.

An avid Flickr-photographer convinced me to try a free account. What a big step! Although I have accumulated several thousands shots on my HD, my shy and withdrawn nature had to be convinced they are worth uploading. Oh well, I try to discipline myself to add a few photos weekly, although I shoot dozens daily.

Why do I now have a Pro account? Because what I found here was an extraordinary positive community of friendly people, either beginners like me, damn good shooters from whom I can learn, or absolute artists that are a source of inspiration, pushing me to go further, to keep learning, and to keep shooting.
