"Create image before pressing shutter button" ©
"Even though photography is not a job for me, but a constant enjoyment of the process, there is still a genre which can be placed above all others, and that is Landscape. No matter if it is Moonscape or Sunscape, Cityscape or Mountains, Rivers or Lakes, Blue sky or deep Milky Way, I have lumped them all together under one big genre - Landscape. It is the genre of my solitude with myself, as my subject, though “silent”, can convey more to me than words can. Its silence or sounds is much richer than distinct speech. It's a time for reflection, where technical calculations don't confuse the thoughts in my head. It is a genre in which you can grow internally, constantly communicating with your inner self. This genre of photography is unequivocally the best thing I love to do all my conscious life​​​​".
