An amateur photographer since 11 (1966). Was influenced by photojournalism in my teens, but then more by those who dealt with the human environment in the own stylistic way (foto-auge in Germany in the 1920’s, Walker Evans, Eugene Atget, Robert Frank, André Kertész, to name a few). Ran a film society that later produced an Oscar nominated movie (best foreign film). Have a Ph.D. in physics and have dealt with technology, its potential misuse, societal emergency response and risk management in my professional life. This has influenced my photographic vision. Was a lecturer in photographic theory for some years, made probably the first holograms in Iceland in 1980. Soon reaching retirement age now returning back to photography and planning some projects. Icelandic but currently working in Tallinn
