.......The photographic

eye goes beyond the

superficial reality.

Photography is an

inner pleasure, as if

moulding a private world.

A landscape is not only

a landscape.A wall is not only a wall.

I steal from reality what

doesn't yet exist in the

real world.

This is how I construct

my dreams, and from them

I hope others create their

own too.....

Where to start ?....Well , let me introduce myself first ....

I am very keen on photography and visual art in general

but I need to develop some skills for better results :-))))

life is a learning process after all , so I 'm not bothered

too much :-))))

Flickr is GREAT.:-)))) period.....did I said that before ?

 

PS/ if you wish to use my images, pls. contact me, / via flickr mail /.without my consent it is not allowed to use them for any purposes .:-))) / am quite flexible lad if you know what does it mean ? /.....and I am sure you do .

  

   

My gear so far :

primarily by photographer's mind , not by the gear!!!

Few words about ''pro et contra'' bla bla bla .....

  

I do ocassionaly use Photoshop and various HDR

techniques because I firmly beleive this can help my

images to be great and more pleasing to the human

eye. Also I think photography era of pics presented

straight out from the camera is well behind us and we

have to use full advantages of new technologies and

inovations. ;-))) Photography is visual experiance but

I ' m prefering to include good story, stiring all kind of

emotions and above all to make you thinking about

what you see . To be honest this matters to me most,

not the fact that image is processed or changed

comparing to the original version. Nobody's perfect !

  

So..... here we go , some.....pics.....

  

>>>close to despair>>>

    

>>>lepe zene prolaze kroz grad>>>

    

>>>invitation>>>

    

>>>sublime morning light>>>

    

>>>silent night in London>>>

Gentle warning : if somebody comment or fav . my images

and I was denied access to his profile or photostream or

he doesn't have one at all , be perfectly sure he will be blocked.

no hard feelings ;-)))
