My pictures are like a diary for me. The camera is my constant companion. I try to capture what appeals to me in a form that I will still like later. My focus is not on capturing the beautiful landscape or city motif. There are plenty of professional photo books for that. My focus is more on the little things or graphic elements. The result is often in black and white. If color is the better choice, I use it. So I’m not a B&W purist. The subject decides for itself.
