Blatant plagiarism here - but at least I paid homage to Escher by including one of his pictures in the reflection. |

Darkroom 800 x 600 83K |
A self-timer picture of me in my improvised attic-darkroom. The enlarger visible was soon replaced with a high quality Durst model. I'm holding a page of negatives in my hands. |

Loo 1024 x 768 101K |
A self-portrait taken in the toilet in Spiez railway station in Switzerland in 1999. The lighting is a monochromatic blue for some bizarre reason. Digital camera. I was subsequently informed that the colour of the light discourages drug injectors because it's difficult to find a vein. |
