After spent a lot of time with my father in the darkroom as a child, photography later took a back seat. Photography has been an important part of my life for many years. As a mechanical engineer, my photographic focus is on structures, geometric shapes and textures that I find primarily in architecture. Strict, ordered, if necessary, symmetrical image structure and narrow, sometimes abstract image sections should emphasize what the object is. The strong contrasts generated by light and shadow should show the viewer the structures, geometric figures, patterns and rhythms. I usually take pictures in black and white, because it gives me a feeling for it whether and how a motif works.
