About

Welcome!

Welcome to my personal photo blog site. I've been playing around with photography for maybe 2,5 years now, but only more serious for the last year and a half. At first I started with a simple Canon Powershot A75, but didn't really know anything about composition or even camera settings.

Oh and don't even get me started about analog film. During holidays I'd always take with me a couple of those single-use camera's and happily shot away...of course not paying attention to anything.

Just recently I felt I wanted to pick up a more creative way to spend my time. That's how photography came into the picture again (pun intended ;-)). I started reading up on the basics, like composition. I browsed the Internet, ordered books about photography and finally decided to get myself a DSLR camera; a Canon EOS 400D.
