I’ve been interested in photography since childhood.
My father was employed as a freelance photographer for the regional papers. I observed his artwork and learned it. My family was able to spend plenty of weekends camping in a gorgeous forest. Thus photography and character obviously entered my life.
I took my very first macro shot when I was ten years old. In those days I used to use an analog camera.
After getting married and having children, photography went by the wayside. The majority of the time I spent on painting.
With the advent of digital photography, I have renewed my enthusiasm for photography and have started to engage in macro very seriously.
