Where the river runs mute

Greatness of the moment or the state is obvious at my work. The subtle, the neglected and the right light are explored in a way that the purity of the scene will be revealed. I move from documentary to social landscape and contemporary approach using digital medium with film aesthetics. Photography is beyond a tool for expression, an effort to socialize and understand fellow human beings, explore and appropriate the urban and suburban scape, a constant search for beauty and simplicity in the trivial.
