Pinhole Photography

In my opinion the use of a pinhole camera at times, where digital media are available, is not a fallback into ancient history of photography, but rather a conscious decision. Creative work with the pinhole camera in combination with digital applications offers extraordinarily sophisticated possibilities for new photographical areas.

Latest work: SEAMOTION | journey by container ships from Germany to Brazil and Hong Kong (lens- and pinhole photography).
