Michael Benz

Photography Enthusiast.
Animal & Nature Lover.

Camera Bag

When I was ten years old, my father gave me an old and heavy German camera, type Voigtlaender Prominet 2, together with a lot of equipment. This was the moment when my passion for photography started, of course with some breaks and detours, however, the direction was clear. Since that, a lot of time has elapsed and I have done many things in-between, such as working as a grave digger and as male nurse. Now, I have become independant, strolling through the world, trying to catch people, scenes and atmospheres that cross my way. Every now and then, I present some of my photos at public exhibitions, sometimes alone, sometimes together with other artists.
