FM Biography

I always loved photography, since the first small plastic, fixed focus, camera: a present from my mother. 

My first reflex (film) came at high school...... a dream made truth after a long time and huge saving efforts. T

hen university came. I always interacted with "Science" , something which is a strange and obscure subject for most people.

A way, for me, to look into nature and things.  Like through the lens of a camera.  

When I moved to digital, I found a new world,  but the same passion as ever.
