TAKING PICTURES
- almost everyone does it, but everyone differently ... one with a small camera
and the other with huge telescopic lens or others with a phone
I got my first camera from my father when I was a child, I was about 9 or 10 years old and clicked a lot. I remember I was the only one in the class who took camera to class trips and I'm still happy looking those pictures from decades ago. That camera was a german Beirette 35 mm, I still have it today.
Later, I missed several years and at some point I started taking pictures again at the beginning of the 2000s. At that time the digital cameras was so expensive so I bought a lot of 35 mm slide film and a slide projector. With slide the image comes to life with the help of a projector, it feels like you are there, the only disadvantage of slide that making paper picture from it is more difficult and lower quality than negative films. I was so impressed by years what I have spent in the United States, there is almost no way to go out without the camera, so my photography bag just became bigger and bigger. In the meantime, I switched to digital technology, but I took a short detour into the world of medium format machines. Canon somehow stuck to me, it never came up to buy another type of gear. Meanwhile, I got into the world of aviation and as a passionated photographer I took my camera to the cockpit too. In 2011 I opened a small studio in Budapest, where a lot of portraits and family photos were taken, but beside that I took part of the world of wedding photography. I'm in Geneva now, so I'll focus on this city.....
