In 2007, an estimated 80 billion digital pictures were created in the United States alone. Sometimes I wonder if there is a reason in creating any more photographs.
But photography, for me, is like life itself, it happens without a reason. I look around me and I just wonder. I see the extraordinary in the ordinary, the special in the common. Photography makes me stop in my everyday rush and take a deep breath. It is a wonderful world, here and now. My photographs are still and silent. They stop the time flowing. They let you enter into another frame of mind. To understand that each of us is extraordinary and special.
My subjects are nature, landscapes, gardens, everyday scenes. Some of my photographs were produced with the help of a special method resembling the original meaning of photography "drawing by the light". Using long exposition time and camera movements I create photographs appearing much like paintings but still representing reality.
My photographs are ready long time before thay are taken, they were created in my imagination. I should only find them somewhere and to operate my camera at the decisive moment.

 

 

One of my photographs appears as a front-cover on the Hebrew edition of short stories by Vera Szollos published by EKED in 2009.  Click Here to see.

I was born in Budapest, Hungary. I have been living for more than twenty years in Israel. I am married having three daughters. I received my M.Sc. in Mathematics in 1982, today I work as a system engineer.
Photography is a way of self-expression. I have been making photographs from age 17. The combination of two worlds, science and art lends my photographs an extra, inspiring touch.
