How and when did your love for photography begin?

Basically, since I was a kid. I was always interested in photos. There was something I couldn`t tell that took me all time to spend lots of time staring at photos even at totally random family photos. To me it was fun to have a look at all the details. I could see people that were waiting to have a look at the album getting impatient and asking why it was taking me so much time to look at a simple albumJ. Well, because it was fun J. With time I found out about the Flickr page and then started to share photos taken with my first digital camera which was my mobile phone Nokia 7610 ;) Flickr has a very important place in my photography adventure start. But as I said my love for photography started since I was a kid, even though I wasn`t very much aware of itJ.

What inspires you to capture an image?

From the most usual to the most unusual things/elements. I tend to create images of things which affect me emotionally or visually.

Are there certain emotions or feelings that you like to highlight in your images?

As I said above, it`s not always known what will affect me, let it be positive or negative emotion. I`d like to be more instinctive sometimes in my life and do things I want to do without analyzing so much, so that the magic won`t get vaporized. I think I`m more successful being so when it comes to images ;)

What tools of the trade do you use most often?

I use both digital and analogue mediums. I`d like to focus more on analogue and experiment more with it but for the moment I don`t have access to any darkroom, so the most I can do without it is developing my films myself. On my digital imagery I use Photoshop, though I `m not the brightest Photoshop user. I only use some of the basic editing tools. I mainly work with color editing since I love colors; they are like a therapy to me. I use a Canon 40D and a broken lens Canon Ixus 6.0 which does some weird effects after the lens accidentJ As per analogue I own a Canon 500 n, lomo Smena 8M, Minolta and one hand made pinhole camera.
