The Mythical, Mysterious, and Magical

I am naturally drawn to these types of stories as there is something darker and foreboding about them. In my first year of fashion school, (which seems like ages ago), I used fairy tales as a source of inspiration. I am now re-visiting this body of work and diving a little bit further. These are just a few photos I've been collecting as sources of inspiration. Each photo draws me in and tells a story of its own. Corbis - XX Century in Black and White Photos BBC.

a window into the soul

Sculpture and artist dani grossman made an observation a few weeks ago. he told me i have a ‘thing’ for hands. one of my favorite photos (also used in my blog banner); yup, hands! And coming to think about it, yes, i have many more photos of hands; so what is it about hands? Perhaps what draws me to create photographs of hands has to do with the ability of photography to capture fragments and detail. to allow these fragments to express an idea as a whole, the details to hint to a bigger picture. not showing everything, just hinting - allowing each individual viewer’s imagination to fill in the missing parts. like solving a puzzle, like reading a mystery novel, like seeing a beautiful woman, dressed ever so lightly… big hands, small hands (remember dr. seuss?)

Dani grossman’s hands: and leonardo’s hands: (da vinci) so if eyes are considered a window into the soul, perhaps hands are a door into the heart. nir. Breath-taking wildlife photography. Passion is something which sometimes comes out wildly in the form of Wildlife photography.

Breath-taking wildlife photography

A love for nature and animals and the courage to adventure in jungles kindles the spark to go wild and capture those moments which remain unexplored and which may pose a threat at times if not alert. Wild life photography is also sending an alarming message to all of us to protect some of these endangered species. Wildlife photography also proves a milestone in protecting the wild animals which are becoming extinct due to many threats by humans such as deforestation, poaching and climatic conditions.

Another important help is, they capture some of the endangered species and collect those precious details which could save these animals from the verge of extinction. A thorough knowledge about the climatic conditions, moods of the animals and a detailed exposure to the nitty-gritty of the cameras are the most essentials qualities for a wild life photographer.
