In 2009 when I first got interested in photography, I was primarily after landscape & fall leafs shots. In next few years I got heavily drawn onto candid / street portraits and sports photography. Lately though, I have come back to nature stuff – this time I seem to be heavily drawn to water and whatever surrounds it. I also discovered world of digital photo art. It is really huge, but I am primarily interested in transforming photo, so it starts looking very similar to a painting. Often I notice that seemingly weak picture, when transformed into a digital art, becomes a stunning experience. Finally, I am a bit attracted to taking pictures of various mechanisms.
