My models. Kounelli photography

I'm a landscape garden designer from Sydney.
I've had my SLR camera since June last year
At the moment I'm loving waterscapes and HDR work.
I hope you enjoy it.
I'm using a DSLR Canon 50 & 40D.

Life is all about moments, some good and some bad. Taking a photos of the good moments gives you more of them.

I've set up a Flickr profile showing some of my Landscape Gardening work I'll be adding photos regularly.
My company is called Metropolis Landscapes.

"I love how versatile Manny is! When you open your contact's photos for the day and you go looking for Manny you never know what you are going to get . It can be waterdroplet refractions, flower macros, landscape, waterscapes, animals, etc. It is so wonderful how he is able to mix things up and keep his photostream so interesting. There is never a dull moment here thanks to you, Manny. I always look forward to your uploads each and every day. You're camera skills are awesome!

Thank you for sharing your photography and for being a great contact! Hugs, honey! *mwah*"

Very talented indeed!
He went to Greece and captured Greece and its beauty for
all of us to enjoy,

"The fact of the matter is that my initial attraction to Manny Kounelli was his name; as a Greek American, I couldn't help but wonder about his ethnicity and once my suspicions were confirmed, I felt it was time to discover the photographer. Over these past few months, I have watched with fascination as Manny has developed and evolved into one helluva a good photographer....the turning point could very well have been with his new Canon.....but WOW his photos took off and there is no stopping him now. His work is full of life and color and he has a youthful enthusiasm. He is in perpetual motion towards improving, creating and going one step beyond...and it is paying off! I feel honored to call Manny Kounelli a Flickr friend. We need to keep our eye on Manny Kounelli, he's a dynamo!."

"Manny has fast become a wonderful friend. He invited me to become an admin for his new group "Explore Flowers", and in 24 hours its become huge already. Its been great fun, and Manny's kind words to me have encouraged me even further! His work is amazing - a very varied photostream, with images from all over the world. Inspiring work, so make sure you take a look at his photostream and leave him some comments! Thanks Manny, you ROCK!"

"Manny is my first friend at Flickr and has been a great help to me. He is a very talented man with a keen eye for a great flower. He has many great and unusual flower shots and macros, some that i've never seen before. The photos of trees and nature are awsome with some great bird shots. Please continue with your great photos Manny can't wait to see what's next"

"HES is a superb photographer with a magnificent gallery of images. He captures it all well, . All of them receive the "magic touch" through the lens of His camera and transform into works of art. Hes not only a great photographer, but also one of the kindest, most generous people I have met on Flickr. Thank you, for the joy of your photos!"
