Creativity, as Wynn Bullock aptly described, is an ode to life—not merely a form of entertainment, but a profound source of joy.

During the 1970s, I embarked on a journey of academic pursuit at Utrecht University, where I pursued a degree in psychology. However, to secure employment, I made a strategic decision to switch to a second study in applied sciences. My career took a remarkable turn when I secured a position as an archivist at a mid-sized Dutch consultancy firm. Over time, my work evolved into various roles, including research (with formal education), web editing (with formal education), and photography (self-taught). After dedicating 25 years to this field, I made the decision to retire, but my passion for photography continues to drive me, and I occasionally engage in this creative endeavor.
