On the Challenge of Wanting to Take Great Photos:
I’m just beginning my journey into true photography and have so much to learn. With a deep passion for LIGHT PAINTING, I roam the streets of my city, Berlin, searching for subjects. I don’t have to look long—often the subjects come to me. When they do, I seize the moment and snap the shot.
Most of my photos seem to be taken from an “unusual” perspective—not at eye level, not above, and only rarely from the ground. There’s a good reason for this: I’ve been in a wheelchair for five years due to illness.
I’ve always been involved in art—I was self-employed before my MS diagnosis, crafting wooden jewelry. After a long period of “artistic inactivity,” photography became a new way for me to express myself.
The joy of this craft now accompanies me every single day.On the Challenge of Wanting to Take Great Photos:

Ich stehe erst am Anfang der Wirklichen Fotografie und habe noch Vieles zu lernen. Mit großer Begeisterung für das LICHTMALEN, bin ich auf den Straßen meiner Stadt Berlin unterwegs, um Motive zu finden. Ich muss nicht lange suchen, denn oft kommen die Motive zu mir. Dann ergreife ich die Gelegenheit und drücke ab.
Die meisten meiner Bilder scheinen in der "falschen" Perspektive aufgenommen. Weder in Augenhöhe, noch darüber- selten einmal vom Boden aus. Dafür gibt es einen guten Grund; denn seit fünf Jahren sitze ich krankheitsbedingt im Rollstuhl.
Kunst habe ich schon immer gemacht- war vor der MS selbstständig und habe Holzschmuck hergestellt.
Nach langer "künstlerischer Untätigkeit", fand ich erneut in der Fotografie eine Möglichkeit, mich auszudrücken.
Der Spaß an der Sache begleitet mich nun jeden Tag.
