About
My name is Maximilian and I am from Bruchsal (Baden-Württemberg). Early I was interessted in photography. After years of empty-heded trigger of an ordinary digicam, I acquired my first digital single-lens reflex camera, with the Olympus E-410, and became acquainted autodidactically with the fascinating world of sensible designed photography. I am impressed by every occasion, how much the smallest details could have big effects for the overall impression of the finished picture. Therefore it is not a rareness, that I am working with the niceties of an object for hours, for getting the preferably best result.
Beneath photography I am interessed in music and sport. Meanwhile since over 17 years I am playing the piano and a few years ago I taught myself to play the guitar. Furthermore I go in for weight training and dancing ballroom and latin dance inter alia in a dance formation since 6 years.
In 2012 I graduated my Abitur in the Abitur double year (G8/G9) in Baden-Württemberg and since then I am studying chemical biology at Karlsruher Institute of Technology, where I graduated my Bachelor of Science in summer term 2015. In my thesis I searched for new active agents against malignant melanoma (the most aggressive type of skin cancer).
Additionally I expanded my social and photographic competences with a month traveling to South-Africa in September 2015. Here I worked at the Cango Wildlife Ranch in Oudtshoorn for and with endangered animals as a Wild Animal Volunteer.
