Where can we see your work?
Soon in the magazines ;)

Anything you would to add?
I’d like to thank Martin Hubmann, Hans Kainz, Mani Gruber and all the other people who I’m shooting with. And Nikon for the development of the best objective (10,5mm).
A fuck out to all the peeps who think, that taking good pictures is no work, and who don’t know what i’ve done for them. And fuck all that special people who are hating about my pictures and for themselve the dno’t know where the are able to set the white balance.
