Childhood memoirs

Pictures from my project "Childhood memoirs", wish I submitted with my application for MA Photography course. I got the place on the course and would like to share it with you.

 

 

Sailor,Sailor

Tomorrow is going to be a decisive day (one of them) - so sleepless night made me sit and work on some pictures I’ve photographed during these months, which was not bad at all. I had a lot of inspiration recently. Finally I saw “Life through a lens” about Annie Leibovitz, I was also reading about Diane Arbus  - whose work I admire more and more.

I’m posting here a couple of photographs from my shoot – an idea I had long time ago – thankfully I had my best model at hand too. It’s about dreams and summer, when it’s so close. 

Nowruz

My trip to Kazakhstan happened to be the days when Kazakhstan (as well as some other Asian countries) celebrated Nowruz - New Year - the biggest national holiday. Nowruz marks the first day of spring and the beginning of the year in the ancient calendar. I could not resist to take some pictures.

Letters from home

It's great to be back home! It's the first time in about 6 years I'm spending so much time here. Wired feeling. Listening to music I was fond of long time ago, look through old photographs. I didn't realise how many things I have forgotten - just left them behind, never had a thought of them during theseyears. I think it is good to move forward, but also to look back from time to time. 


P.S. Going to Kazakhstan tomorrow for 4 days, havent been there for about 10 eyars or so...
