demost1967's photostream

I'm a self-taught photographer. After years of reading, experimenting and studying the "classics" I finally managed to develop my personal style. I try to convey a multilevel meaning to my photographs and for that reason I title them with very simple almost elementary descriptions. I invite the viewer to name my images through hir/her own perceptions.

Technically speaking, I use the positive 35mm film format. My current gear is a Dynax 7 Minolta with a full range of Minolta lenses.

I have displayed my work at two brick and mortar galleries in the past. The first time was in 1999 when I excibited 25 works at the French Institute in Salonica, Greece. The material was actually a collection of images depicting a deserted Russian monastery on Mount Athos, the centre of Eastern Orthodox monasticism.
Then, in 2001, I participated with 6 large format prints of various themes at the International Biennale of New Artists that took place in Malta where I won a distinction.

I have excibited and sold my work at digital galleries as well, like Pixiport or Project 30. I was really impressed by the warm response of visitors from all over the world. This is why I am creating my presence here at Flickr. Your feedback and comments are more than welcome!
