I´m an amateur-photograper focusing to birds; also happily retired which is good for catching the birds. That´s what I´ve done since the early 60´s observing nature throurh glasses. Once upon time tried with film-camera, but that was not my piece of cake. Started again in 2012 this time with digital camera and this is what I will do.

I´ve done few trips in the neigborhood to see more birds; in Sweden, Denmark and Norway and going to visit Estonia; staying mostly in Finland just because I have not time to go everywhere and there is a lot to do here without travelling around.

Equipment: Nikon D300s and D7000, Sigma 150-500 and 70-200, tele-converters. These are in reasonable balance with my skills. I don´t manipulate my photos; avoiding artefacts in my photos and staying far from zoos, cages and stuff like that. I prefer the wilderness and free creatures.
