I am from Jakobstad (Pietarsaari) in Finland and I started photgraphing almost 30 years ago when I bought my first SLR camera a Pentax MV1, since then I have been loyal to the Pentax system. I have hade a Pentax ME Super a Pentax MZ-5, Pentax KD200 and my current camera a Pentax K-5. From year 2000 I had an eight year long break when I took no pictures at all untill fall 2008 when I bought my first digital camera, a Pentax KD200. Then my photo interest waken again and since then I have been photographing as much as possible. I have been participating in lots of international and national exhebitions and have received the photo titles Exellence FIAP (EFIAP), PSA 3 Star Photographer (Photographic society of America) and SKsLSM (Grand Master of Finnish Camera clubs). Nowadays I just like to show my pictures here on 500px. I mostly take lanscape and nature pictures but I also like to experiment with diffret technicues.
