Photography is Subjective

I take photos to tell a story. There are all sorts of emotions related to each frame: Love, hatred, sadness, excitement, fear... Each photo communicates a unique story, and these stories are usually about me. If not, they are about my experiences.

Some of my beloved audience occasionally makes the point that I don't allow them to enjoy the art or to narrate their own stories. They may be right. No, actually they are right. I am in a sense limiting their imagination. Nonetheless, my frames represent my world...my dreams. To me, photography is more than art. To me, it is a communication medium. It is a way of self expression. To me, photography - very much like the music - is for the soul. It includes emotions, visuals, words and many other ingredients. Photography, for most of the part, is subjective and that is both the creativity and the beauty of it.
