Hi there, Born in '72 and shooting pictures since '83, I have concentrated my efforts in Cave Art and Ancient Civilizations. I also enjoy creating panoramic compositions... But not just...

However, they have some things in common: they are meaningful images and they are for the most part unique. W. W.
