Vote Vasko - Photographer

Jyväskylä, Finland

Compared to all the wonderful photographers and beautiful photos on the pages, I wouldn't even call myself a photographer.

I just happen to have a cheap camera with me at early Finnish hardcore punk gigs. I took 1 camera roll or 2 at each gig and I was happy if some of them turned out to be good. Usually 9 out of 10 was crap, out of focus or too dark and 1 was good, out of 30 good ones 1 was great.

But I'm glad I took those photos. They've been printed on hundreds of fanzines all over the world and tens of record covers too.
