Sunset at Bui Da Bac Photograph

Frank experienced life in different parts of the world. Born and raised in a small town on the idyllic coast of the Baltic Sea in East Germany, he experienced life in a socialist environment. His childhood and adolescence were very safe and protected but citizens were not allowed to travel non-socialist countries. Frank suffered with the knowledge that he would never see the vast extent of the Grand Canyon, the colourful display of the Northern Lights or the setting sun over the majestic dunes in the Sahara. But then, very unexpectedly, things changed. The German wall came down and a completely different world presented itself. All of a sudden the whole world was open to be explored. This was when Frank first came into touch with photography. He borrowed two rolls of film and the family SLR to explore the world and discovered photography as his true passion. In years of self-study, living in the UK, Spain and Hong Kong he developed his photography skills to a professional level. During his time in Spain he also started working on time-lapse projects and studied web development. The wanderlust never released its grip on Frank and it has become an essential part of his art. He now lives and works as a photographer and web designer in Spain.
