Happy 2016!!!
“What can be said in New Year rhymes, That’s not been said a thousand times? The new years come, the old years go, We know we dream, we dream we know. We rise up laughing with the light, We lie down weeping with the night. We hug the world until it stings, We curse it…

Photography and growth
I’ve always been a fan of going back to see your old works and see your progress. To be honest, I’ve come across a few images that made me cringe and a lot that I would not change. It’s a great thing to see that my style is changing and I like it quite a…
