the incident

What happened?

I parked my van on busy parking next to the street.
Near Ikea, Baracolda, Cantambria, Spain.
how i got robbed in spain
Dailight around 16. Very hot day.
All my stuff are usually well hidden and are stored in my car safe box. Unluckly robbers seen me hidding my backpack (with food), from front of the car to the rear. And this was their main goal.
Too bad, they also found, well hidden, backpack with my camera.
My car locks were destroyed.

What was stolen?

Full frame Nikon D750 camera

Serial Number: 5008683

Corners on the bottom scratched, around 1m clicks.

Nikkor 80-200 2.8d lense

Manual focus not working
(broken permanently)

‘Hardway’ and ‘Vans’ stickers on the lens cover

- estimated value 3500 euro

What is my situation?

Stuck in North Coast of Spain.
Living in a van. Not bad, but a bit rainy.
I don`t have savings to buy a new setup (camera + tele lense).
No prospects for new jobs
(because my work tool was stolen).

What is my approach?

I don`t need no charity, fund raising or any of that.
I don`t want anything for free.
Just buy my phots. Be my client.

What is my goal?

I need to gather 2000€ for an alternative used setup
(full frame camera + tele lense)
Something I can work with and provide quality photos for my future clients.
How much You already helped me:
1040€ 52%
Update: Thanks to Your help and orders for prints and calendars I gathered 1040€ which is 52% of my goal. With this money I am happy to say I fully financed my new Camera! Now to get fully recovered I still need to buy a professional Tele-lens which is another 1000€

How You can help?

Buy my calendar

Buy prints:

Choose any of my photos from gallery: landscape, surfing from nazare, snowboard and other action shots, van life, portraits. - email me witch chosen photo and pick a size.

Or let me send You a random picture of my choosing.
You can also buy a digital copy of any of my photos (Maybe its You on the photos?)
