I am a scientific and literary translator.
Photography is a passion inherited from my father, who put my first camera - a Kodak Rio 400 - into my hands at the age of 5. I never stopped clicking since. :-)

Thank you very much for choosing me as a contact, but please don't be upset if I don't reciprocate. I try to develop a relationship with my contacts. That is not easy and most of the time I fail miserably with my goal.
Note 1 - I visit ALL my contacts once a day, however I am a "silent contact" most of the time, as I have little talent for commenting. I don't play the "make empty comments" game.
Note 2 - If you add any picture of mine as a favorite and (a) you have no images available to me, (b) you have only one page of random shots, (c) no profile, (d) no contacts - YOU WILL BE BLOCKED.
Note 3 - All my pictures on flickr are with MINIMAL RESOLUTION (72 dpi) and ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
If you want to use a photo, I have high resolution watermark free versions of most of the pictures published here. Please contact me via Flickr.

maura is a great photographer - and a traveller. I love her insights into the countries, she visited. as far as I remember, we first came in contact through her pictures of france which I enjoyed so much - including the historic facts that she shared with us. lately she visited japan - and came back with so many wonderful and interesting pictures and a very personal view of this country. I adore the "cooking files" and the impressions of the farmer's market and recommend to create a real cookbook! :-) last but not least: I'm in love with dom fuas, the most wonderful cat (beside "the twins", of course.. :-)) and the most important thing is: I regard maura as a wonderful person and a friend, that I met through flickr.
Read lessMaura is perhaps best known for chronicling the adventures of her cat, Dom Fuas, as he chases paper clips and battles dinosaurs. But I also appreciate the love of texture and small details in her work, as she chronicles places like Kyoto and the Loire Valley.
