I never get tired of photographing winter landscapes. Days with frost-clear weather and sunshine have become rare, so it’s important to take advantage of the opportunity when it arises.

Suddenly, I saw my journey into the world of photography in a single motif, there, in a clearing in the forest. For the most part, I fumble around in the dark, experimenting with different forms of expression, but occasionally, I encounter small pockets of clarity where my photographic work makes sense. The path disappears again
