Taking photos for almost 30 years. Started with analog and B&W photography and had a break during the 90′s.

Beginning with travelling to New Zealand and Norway and to Italy several times a year, I rediscovered the pleasure of taking photos. Switched from my old Praktika SLR to Nikon SLR and later to Nikon DSLR, I became more and more an enthusiastic photographer.

Even if there are more talented photographers than me, I also got keen in organzing photo events and competitions. Eventually in 2006, I started to conduct photo workshops.

As I live in Sistrans near Innsbruck, Austria, most of my activities described on this site take place in this part of the world. However, if there is an opportunity, I also perform workshops or events in other cities or countries, for instance, I did a workshop in New Delhi as well as I organized photo trips to Italy. Thanks to my close relation to Vienna, I also do a lot of photography there.
