Kirstein's photostream  

I'm 50 years old and married to Vivi. We have two lovely children and live north of Copenhagen, Denmark.

My photographing career started 30 years ago. My first camera was a Pentax. Then I shifted to Olympus OM10, OM20 and finally ended up with Olympus OM-2n.

In 2006 I bought a Nikon D70s and some lenses. In January 2008 a Nikon D300 was added.

The worst about Flickr is the few individuals who can't really accept any criticism - they just want to add photos and receive "harmless" feedback with or without awards instead of receiving constructive suggestions for possible improvements - no harm meant or intended. We can all learn from each other - no matter how long we have been photographing and editing in Photoshop or other similar software.

I'm always looking for constructive comments. When receiving a comment I'll look into the photo stream of this person and see if their own photos have a high technical and/or creative level. This implies that I can learn something. Otherwise I pay little attention to the comment from a "technical perspective", but try to learn by listening to the viewpoint about the photo from a non-technical starting point.

My daughter also has her own stream on Flickr: Camilla
