"it's the end of the world and I feel fine"

Short story of my life on the photographic side

around 1991 : 10 years old, taking pictures of my sister in her most gorgeous outfits, bad habit of letting a finger or two in the frame

1991 - 2004 : nothing except for drawing a lot of comics (this is actually how I learned about composition) and messing around with photoshop, starting at version 2.5 on a mac.

2004 : first digicam (canon A95), bought to shoot some streets and buildings as reference for a comics than has never been finished (or started).

2004 -2006 : shooting a lot of rock gigs with few light and lots of noise at ISO 400.

2006 : first reflex: canon EOS 400D, got a nice 50mm f1.8 and a 24-70mm f.2.8.

2007 : first work published : cd cover for the Venus live& best-of album. (credited as Micky Willis). A photograph in Arther's album booklet. Pictures used on many band websites/myspaces.

now : still learning, still trying.
