Hello world

For about ten, maybe fifteen years, I have had the intention of starting a blog on photography. And finally, here it is. Imagine the amount of procrastination I have been doing in the meantime. I don't know why I haven't started it earlier, maybe it has been about finding the right platform, the most suitable type, the perfect colour theme, or something similar. And I have to admit, now the timing is a bit off.

The world has moved from Web 1.0 to 2.0. Social media and artificial intelligence now runs the world, and traditional blogs are more or less dead. Or are they? Well, I don't know, and to be honest, I don't care too much about it. For me, this blog is a way of reflecting and writing about my passion, photography. What photography is for me. Why I enjoy it so much. What it means to me. It is also a way for me to showcase what I find worth documenting and presenting.

Most of the images in this blog will be in black and white. At least for now, maybe this will change in the future, who knows. At the moment, I find colours distracting. This does not mean all photographs I take are in black and white. Far from it, as can be seen in the different portfolios here, especially for sports photography. But for the last few years, I have been in the black and white phase. I will dive deeper into this at some point, as I find it interesting. Is it because of my partial colourblindness (red-green)? Or is it because of my mentality? My age?

If there is anyone reading this, I hope you will enjoy the photographs, and the texts. I will try and write posts regularly.
