Elena Pavlichenko's photostream  

My story with photography is quite unusual. I was never fond of this art and I absolutely did not like being pictured. But last year I was diagnosed with cancer, unfortunately with an incurable one. And I decided to change my life and to start to do something new. I started to travel. It was the travel fro discovering the world and myself. My new personality, new hobbies, new interests and new people. I found a fantastic partner. He is a photographer and a very interesting person. So we create stories and make pictures in nice places around the world. We have already made two sessions, in Florence and in Maldives. And we have a lot of plans and hopes. And I am happy that I joined Flickr since I found so many kind and talented people here. Now I love photography and do not mind being pictures. Thank you all!
