I have been thinking about you, my dear photographic friends. You have stayed with me over the years reading this blog and supporting me in my endeavours and I am so grateful for your interest. It has been a while so I thought I would give you an update on my photographic activities. There is [...]
Over the course of my photographic career, my visual interests have evolved from landscape to travel and from travel to street and creative photography. It has been a voyage of seeing, visual experimentation and self-discovery. In the last year, I noticed that this metamorphosis has accelerated and started me on a new visual journey. As [...]

We have just begun the sign-up process for the ELEMENTS Magazine and are releasing a limited number of FOUNDING MEMBER SUBSCRIPTIONS with a special, one-time introductory price of $US79 per year ($6.58 per [...]
I am working on a comprehensive review of the Hasselblad 907X 50c camera but I thought I would share with you my first, rather random, thoughts after shooting with this new system for the last five days. The moment you take the camera out of the box, you know you are dealing with something different. [...]

I am so excited to share this with you! When I released my first book, “Seeing Simplified – How to see and craft great imagery,” I didn’t know what to expect. I wanted to write a simple, yet thoughtful book in which I would share my process of seeing and crafting imagery. I wanted it [...]
How is everyone? For the last few months I have been working on a sequel to my first book "Seeing Simplified - How to see and craft great imagery." In the first book I mostly focused on street and creative imagery, this time I am writing about my approach to travel photography. The new book [...]
Most of my blog posts are quite long. This year, I have been extremely busy working on my new books (yes, there are two in the works), developing my brand new Visual Poet Experience - PRO program and working on the Medium Format Magazine. The last two weeks were especially challenging as gloomy and dark [...]
