Welcome to My World of PhotoArt
You will find a variety of different styles among my images. I like the flexibility of today's digital world we live in and I want to share some of my creative ideas.
Some images have been created using in-camera techniques like Multiple Exposure, ICM (intentional camera movement) or Lens Zoom. I shoot Infrared with a camera that is converted to shoot only infrared. I use a Fisheye Lens to distort a scene. Some have been created with lens adaptors to give the image a soft, dreamy look.
Other images have been processed in Photoshop, using 3D, Layers, Filters, Brushes and shaping tools which are only available in digital editing software. Some of my images are finger-paintings-on-my-mobile-phone to create Naïve Art .

The possibilities of editing photographs for me are endless which makes my work unpredictable and not always shows a style that would be recognised as being 'me'.
I love, appreciate and follow all photography made the way it is meant to be, in focus, telling a story, engaging with the viewer.
But I am not a photographer, I use my camera as a tool to start my creation. I spend many hours editing an image to get what I had in mind when I took the photo. I want my work to be different.
Many of my artworks are in private ownership.
I hope you enjoy the artistic creative part of photography as much as I enjoyed creating and sharing it with you.
Thank you for visiting my World Of PhotoArt!
