I try not to think so much upon what messages or what impressions my images will convey in the end. I simply try to be true to what I see and what I interpret. I like to photograph in very different surroundings and in very different conditions. Commercially it would probably be wiser to stick to one theme but this way keeps me a happy photographer.

What I was surprised about in the beginning was how strongly the photographs seemed to affect people. It seems that regardless if you have a history as an industrial worker or as a bank clerk you can identify yourself in the emotion of abandonment.

A rather unexpected bonus is also to discover the amounts of technical knowledge out there. I see structures and emotions but don’t know much about what exactly each piece of machinery I photograph actually do, or rather used to do. But there are a lot of people who do know about these things and who will tell you. The details you learn are simply fascinating.

I use my trusted Canon DSLR and the lenses I have had for years. If I encounter something that I absolutely have to photograph and am unprepared I use whatever is present, including my mobile phone. That is, I do not think about the gears a lot and I find it a bit depressing that we photographers tent to talk so much about gear and so little about ideas when we meet.
I edit all my images in Photoshop. It is my darkroom but without the chemicals.

Do you think that it’s a unique perspective that decides your style of photography or the skill?

It is certainly the perspective that creates the basics for the style. I have a mental picture of what the finished product should be like. The skill is what transforms that picture into something that other people can see.
