“All pictures on this website have been taken ‘manually’, that is to say, without any help from a tripod or any other kind of support (apart from my elbows). No picture has been post-produced in terms of cutting, digital enhancement or any other kind of alteration or manipulation.
The only exception I make is the use of the setting ‘vibrant’ (‘levendig’) on the camera itself and the digital removal of incidental spots as a result of dust particles on the image sensor. So what you see is exactly how it came out of the camera: pure, uncut and truthful.
These are my eyes: as I see the world, that’s how you are going to see it. I hope you will enjoy viewing my pictures as much as I have enjoyed taking them.”

PS In some galeries I make an exception to the primary pinciples of this website, to the effect that I will emphasize that some pictures may have been reframed or tilted.
