~I'm an amateur in the real meaning of the word. I am "a lover of".

Been photographing for one year, learning and experimenting. Almost stuck in bokeh-land and happily so. Shallow dof is my man.
Looking at the world through a lens is a rollercoaster, moments of pure bliss, moments of agitated anger when nothing works the way you want, moments of serene joy and harmony, seeing the small details, finding the beauty in everyday.

Who am I then?
Tough question, sometimes I'm more at loss than you. I'm one who lives in the upper spheres, indulging in emotions, music, art, shimmering lights and the song of birds. One who always seeks to understand rather than judge, one who needs to feel connected to everything around her.

....books, history, languages, glass, rubber boots, spring and autumn, the crisp air of a dark winter night and the pure lightness of midsummer, candles, cheesecakes, the colour blue..... laughter, discussions, learning, studying, busting my credit card limits, not thinking before doing.... dancing, singing out loud while driving on a highway, talking to a squirrel, travelling, New York, Paris... vintage dresses, pearl necklaces in every colour, long morning sleeps, enjoying late evenings and nights, finding a meaning and a way of my own.... writing, inventing new words, contemplating and observing the world around me....
