About me...

Born in December 1979 in Franconia/Bavaria/Germany. Working as IT-Specialist, maybe Junior Oracle DBA, at a nice company in Nuremberg. I take pictures with a digital compact camera since 2002. I started with the Canon Ixus v2. 2 years later I got the Canon Ixus 500 - I loved this cam. Everywhere I am, my cam is with me. But, on a trip with a sailing boat at the Mediterranean Sea near Italy I lost my daily companion. The next camera was the DSLR Canon 400D. From beginning at this moment at November 2007 I started to photograph - 'real' photograph. It took some time to understand the aperture, the photosensitive, the duration of exposure, the different focal distances, and, and, and... Yes, I bought a book about this all, but I never read it - I prefer the way going out to the nature, to the city or somewhere and testing out the functions, the possibilities, the limits and the technical things of my camera. After the first magic 9.999-limit I had a good feeling and handling with this new gadget and now, the Photography captured a big part of my life. A passion was born.

My definition of the moment...

...this is my slogan. Anybody else says, drawing with the lights - yes, that's also correct, but I'm not so good in drawing things. :) Every picture is something special - every picture is a moment of the life, my life - every picture is a view from one angle, my angle - every picture freeze a moment which will never be happen again - so I try to share my 'definition of the moment' with you over this photoblog. I hope you enjoy it!
