Gear

This page here shows what gear I use on a regular basis. None of it is set in stone, but is meant to give you an overview of what I employ. 

Most important “gear”

Most important is to have is a stubborn miniature schnauzer that also works as your editor. A little bearded guy that gives you grief for not shooting enough waffles and too many trees. He loves to check out new locations, but is not that keen about you taking out the camera. Barking at the shadows of any mosquito that is not there is one of his special skills. On the other hand he will let you know if there’s a paparazzi lurking in the bushes.
