Hello and Welcome!

“‘The picture is worth ten thousand words.’ So says ‘an old Chinese proverb.’”

An emotional impact generated from viewing a finely crafted image is what all
photographers strive for in their creative hearts. But this deep. personal
effect from viewing is a very rare thing to achieve. All that we can do as
the artistic creator of the image is to plan and pre-visualize the image we
wish to create. Think of it with the viewers emotional reaction in mind.
Then make it happen to the best of our ability. If you are just starting out
in photography then you will grow and acquire the technical photographic
skills and then the artistic abilities. These will not come to you just
because you have the latest and greatest camera that a loved one gave you as
a gift, then told you to go out and create…
Well, the fact that a technically incorrect photograph can be emotionally
effective than a technically flawless image will appear shocking to those who
are naive enough to believe that technical perfection makes the true value of
a photo!

So thank you for visiting, i hope you find my site, enjoyable, informative and
as a good pastime! ;)

„Die Tatsache, dass eine (im konventionellen Sinn) technisch fehlerhafte Fotografie gefühlsmäßig wirksamer sein kann als ein technisch fehlerloses Bild, wird auf jene schockierend wirken, die naiv genug sind, zu glauben, dass technische Perfektion den wahren Wert eines Fotos ausmacht.“ (Andreas Feininger)

He composes pictures together in a beautiful way, to create real peace of art. I follow all his pictures, and he is a big inspiration for me. One day I hope to be able to make as beautiful pictures as he make."
