I was born in May 1956 in Frankfurt/Germany where I'm still living. I studied history and finished with the doctor degree. Some years I was working as a historian for an agricultural federation but since January 2001 I'm trying to survive as a free journalist for different magazines. Photography is job and hobby to me, especially photography of nature and animals. Cameras: Canon EOS 10D, Canon EOS 300D, Olympus 2100 UZ.
