My father was a photographer with the Argentinian army in the 1940-60s, and I grew up surrounded by cameras, dark-room chemicals and photography magazines. I started shooting with one of my father’s Contax's when I was 19, and there was no return from there.

I bought my first SLR, a Minolta X1, in 1980, and my first AF camera was a Minolta Maxxum 9 (1991). My first digital was a Canon 350D, used for a bike ride in Guilin, China (2008). I was a Canon person until 2014, when I decided to cut down in size and weight, turning into a Sony 7R guy. I am currently a fanatic of Sony 7s (low resolution/high ISO), good for dark streets. I used to shoot w/a manual 15 mm Voigtlander lens, but since 2022 I use a Sony 14 mm AF lens, with a HUGE (105 mm) polarizer filter. Currently, I only make composites, via Lightroom/Photoshop. I am obsessed w/ the use of polarizer filter: no sky reflections on my photos.

My fav book: Susan Sontag’s ‘On Photography.’ Because of this book, my fav photographer of all time is Diane Arbus. And, with Sontag, I do believe that "images fly away" as soon as they are taken, and more so in the digital era.

I have been part of 2 photo clubs, one in Argentina (Cordoba) and one in Australia (Queensland Camera Group, Brisbane).
