Age 90, architect, retired 27 years ago from Helsinki City Planning.

Joined Blipfoto in 2012 only to leave in 2015 due to the change in Blipfoto’s ownership. Downloaded my photos and made books of them. Moved over to the 365project.org where just recently I got a reminder of the due membership fee. I thought that I would no longer continue there, but asked whether I could still download my photos. Next time I checked in they were gone.

I have photographed ever since my teens when I got my own camera. I was the family photographer and later on I took pictures of my ponies, my dogs and my cats.

Photography has changed. The famous candid and available light photographs of the great Family of Man  exhibition look pale compared to today’s digicamera (or smart phone) documents.
