i have been behind the camera for more than 30 years, as an ambitious amateur. since the time when digital photography became sort of affordable to normal people, i have been testing and trying again and again to get closer to what i believe could be a good photo. this, obviously being in the eye of the beholder, will never be happening ... but i keep on trying.

i am not going to enter arguments about what is better, and what is best. i used to work with paintshop pro, then entered the world of capture one, and finally arrived at lightroom.
