Photography

Photography is one of my greatest passions. I absolutely love the process of creating a beautiful composition that captures the right time, the right place, and the right subject. The technical side of photography is also fascinating to me - playing with different settings, lenses, and equipment to achieve the perfect shot is a challenge that I enjoy. But what I love most about photography is how it gets me outside and allows me to connect with nature. It's a way for me to slow down and really look at the world around me, appreciating the beauty in the smallest details. Whether I'm exploring a new location or just wandering around my backyard, photography always gives me a sense of joy and wonder.

Current Equipment: Fujifilm x100s (time for an upgrade) and DJI Mini 3 Pro drone (ended up in the river).
