First steps into photography with a mobile phone in 2004. Got my first digital camera at the end of 2006 as a present but it was quite crappy. So I saved my money and bought a better one some months later (the other one was then broken anyway). I went taking photos in nature with my Ricoh Caplio R4 almost every weekend. I started portrait photography quite late. First, I only took photos of friends because they asked me to. At the end of 2008, I caught fire and tried to do it more often. Fortunately, I could lend my boyfriend's reflex camera back then as my digital camera wouldn't have been the right thing. After some time, I got to the point where a simple digital camera doesn't satisfy you anymore but as a student, I had not enough money to buy a reflex camera. I have to admit, I was jealous of my boyfriend as well because he could afford a lot of equipment :lol: In summer 2009, I finally bought my own reflex camera, a Nikon D90. And I had finally a lot more possibilities. The rest was practice.

Well, the first one you surely recognized it as a german symbol: "Bundesadler". :)


The other ones are also symbols from other European countries. I just wanted to mix them all in order to a create a narrative because I realized that in a certain moment dissolving the word EUROPE to EU-R-OPE could be interesting and turn into a positive message YOU ARE HOPE.

I'm thinking about more drawings based on this word to increase hope and union between all european people.

Sure, this is what I've already understood.
But what's the Viking with the letters, for example?

You're not only person who asked me that question... ^^;

well let's say that it's a "super" Viking who transformed all the hard
experiences on his life into something that made him grow up as an human being,
sharing that with all the world in form of letters.
