Photography showcase

I'm not a photographer, but I do like to carry a camera with me. Often a small point-and-shoot camera that fits easily in my pocket, but since 2011 I also have a basic DSLR camera. And although I can't compete with experienced photographers with their expensive cameras and fancy lenses, my photos often do come out quite nice.


This page shows a small selection of some of my favorite photographs.


I will add (or replace) photos from time to time, so if you like my photos do bookmark this page and come back soon!

Where do you take most of your photos? In and around the house, or during trips? Close to your home, or away from your home?

My camera

Canon ixus 50My trusted companion since 2005: A Canon IXUS 50. Most photos on this page were taken with this camera.

In the spring of 2011 I finally bought a DSLR. Nothing fancy: Canon's starter model, the EOS 1000D. I still use my IXUS sometimes - it is small and fits easily into my pocket, and it is quick and easy to use. But most of my new photos are taken with the EOS.
