Photography is my hobby and travelling, my passion...
I am a minimalist by nature and believe therefore that “Less is More”. #unfiltered When it comes to photography, the challenge for me lies in capturing images with the least amount of photographic equipment.
A basic camera, a memory card and a huge amount of passion for photography.
My equipment consists of a bridge camera, with one Leica lens only. No additional lenses, extra lighting or filters. I even get by without a tripod most of the time... Always unfiltered.
My philosophy is that if you can't capture the image the way it presents itself at the time, leave it for somebody else to capture, and move on...
"Photographs are footprints of our minds, mirrors of our lives, reflections from our hearts, frozen memories that we can hold in silent stillness in our hands -- forever if we wish. They document not only where we have been, but also point the way to where we might perhaps be heading, whether or not we realise this yet ourselves..."
