Godfrey, thanks a lot!
Sorry, there is no translation available….
But the content is easily told: as a young guy messing around with my Iron Love, the NikonF (The 'nam camera at those days) one photograph which I made changed everything into street- and social photography. The old guy in the backyard.

For 4 years during short trips all over Europe and yearly holidays streetphotography mainly with human subjects was my goal. Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa my absolute heroes, b&w film and bathroom developement my routine.

Around 1974 it stopped because I started windsurfing in 1973 as one of the first persons in my area and photography stopped nearly completely. Job, family, kids, the house etc. took me over……
Around 2006 I sent a photograph to an Apple magazine (the Irish drinker of a dark Guinness) and won the 1. price.

Bad, because I started photography again and spent a lot of money into Leicas, Nikons, Pens and Bessas.
The first years had been frustrating because I could not remember the mood I was in when I walked through London, Paris or Amsterdam.
But then the line of situation, subject, lens and heart/eye became stronger and in an different scenario after more than 35 years again I'm strolling with a cam in my hand, but mutch more tired feet after some hours….
