title
Den Haag Centraal
When I photograph architecture I focus mainly on geometry, lines, curves, patterns, and abstract designs of the buildings and also keeping it vertically straight when photographing the full building.
I have recently become excited about photographing city life as well as the type of cultural events that are staged in big cities such as Oslo, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Amsterdam, London, Ningbo, Shanghai. Hong Kong ,Taipei or New York I have often experienced the most photogenic situations at day in such cities. The rapidly developing cities of Asia and Europe are also exciting places in terms of creative and experimental architecture, which I have documented extensively. But documenting such emerging cityscapes is not my only urban interest. I have also documented the decay of old industrial sites as well as abandoned tenements in deprived urban neighborhoods. I am fascinated by the contrasts that juxtaposed images of urban wealth and urban poverty provide.
