I photograph everything around me, be it Nature, Cityscape
and People. However, basically l am an "I photograph
everything around me, be it nature, cityscapes, or people.
However, basically, I am an urban photographer. I love
the city, its people, and its architecture. The high-rise
buildings with glass and chrome create wonderfully distorted
reflections, which I find fascinating. People intrigue me
with their colorful personalities and actions. The city has
everything for me – architecture, people, and even nature.

When I stroll through the streets with my camera anywhere
in the world, I try to capture moments and episodes that will
never come back. When I discovered the digital camera and
the software to go with it, I became addicted to this medium
and its vast possibilities. Many times, the photograph for
me is like the canvas for a painter: I add or subtract from
the photograph and create what I see in my mind’s eye. My
photographs reflect my moods and the life around me, be it
private or general. Even though it is difficult today to create
something totally new, I think every artist has something
unique only to them. I hope that my art, or at least my eye, is
unique only to myself."
