I must have taken thousands of pics by now. My subjects are normally still-life, landscape, nature and close-up although at times I still take candid-shot and wedding photos.

Hello there.
Me? A photographer?. I'm just a keen amateur
photographer, not more than that. I have been taking photos since I was
15. I remember the first time I used my uncle's camera. He was away so
I managed to finnish a 24 exposure without his knowledge. I must have taken thousands of pics by now. My subjects are normally still-life, landscape, nature and close-up although at times I still take candid-shot and wedding photos. |

My gear? Only the basic gear; A Pentax P30T SLR with a 35-80 zoom lens,
a CS-240 Auto Yasica flash unit, a VT-131 Vanguard tripod and dozens of
Cokin filters. I don't rely on good cameras for good pics although sometimes
it helps a lot to minimize time adjusting exposure and focusing. I once had a very basic SLR called MIRANDA (a 2nd-hand camera) but I could still produce good quality pictures. Heheee... yeahh yeahh.. it depends to the photographer. Those pics in My Pics Gallery were taken with my P30T a few years ago while I was still in UK. As we drove around Europe one summer holiday and spent 2 weeks wandering around in France, Italy, Austria, Germany, Holland, Switzerland and Belgium, I managed to finish a few rolls of film. |

This is my favourite one!
This shot was taken in Lindau Germany. I saw a couple of swans one early
morning and I managed to sneak nearer and shot these swans while they were
playing around. That was the only shot and when the films were developed
we were really amazed with the formation of a 'heart'. I attribute this
shot to patience, luck and not forgetting the beautiful nature in Lindau.
