I was obsessed with passenger airplanes ever since, being a small kid already - watching planes on the Ruzyne airport terrace, together with my father, in the 70-80s, regularly. My room was decorated in that sense, planes, posters and airline timetables everywhere. Not sure why I lost interest, almost completely, for more than 20 years, back then.

With the DSLRs, I got back the aviation related thrill. Visiting various airports. Not only watching, but also trying to capture the moments there, on my Nikon cameras. Luckily - most of the time, when spotting abroad, I was there with my dad again.

I have only ever used Linux versions of UFRaw, GIMP + G'MIC, for all my work here.

I am enjoying this great site whenever I can, however due to personal reasons (not AP related at all!) I left the screening team, as of 2012. Took more than a decade long pause from photography, later on, too. Sadly being too busy with many other things to the present day, but returning to here, as the AP is "Number #1" aviation photo site for me.

Cameras: Nikon guy.
Lenses: Various Nikkors + an ancient Bigma.
