Hello and welcome dear visitor

Here is a little look behind the camera.

My name is Maik Pankow, made in the beautiful year 1966. Besides my job, I am a passionate hobby photographer and love to travel. Combining these 2 things is the most beautiful thing for me. Whenever I have time, I pack my camera and set off in search of new motifs and the perfect photo. My focus is mainly on landscape photography.

I already had an interest in photography when I was young. Back then, I stood in the darkroom with a school friend and we developed photos together. That was a long time ago. Since then, a lot has happened in the field of photography. During this time, my equipment and my experience have grown. And every day I learn something new.

Due to my place of residence, many of my photos are from Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Luxembourg.

If you have any questions, criticism or suggestions about my photos, please feel free to contact me.
