He was born in Debrecen in 1969, then he grew up in Püspökladány. His passion for nature started when he was young. He came into closer contact with nature photography in his college years, in the early 1990s. He came to Soltvadkert in 1994 and started to explore the region of Kiskunság with the eyes of a photographer, which still lasts to this day, as this area is inexhaustible of amazing subjects. His first book, The Child of the Rivers presents this beautiful landscape. He is interested in every topic that provides him experience and in which he sees a chance to take a good picture.
