The sense of wonder and desire to uncover the natural beauty of the world drives me. This year saw my pursuit for the image extend to a handful of scenic places around Europe. Considering the circumstances of the world, being outdoors always felt like a blessing. While the places I prefer to travel are wild, there is also a sense of responsibility. As photographers, our images need to go beyond objects that are merely pleasing to look at. We have the responsibility to communicate regarding sustainability. A rich environment provides a harmonic habitat not simply for wildlife, but for us, humans too. We must keep nature safe from our own hands. […]

After noticing this, I was reassured that travelling and photography are a match made in heaven. This is because it is a hack – any foreign place or culture provides […]

I wanted to create a story that had “human connection with the natural world” as the main character of it. […]

On the contrary, film is a revolutionary way in which I feel able to reduce the speed of my life. Shooting with film helps soothing out the urge for immediacy; you click the shutter speed, and you aren’t able to see a photograph.
