Panos Mavromytis - Ναυπακτος's photostream  

Two of my great passions in life are design and photography. I believe that design broadens one's view of the world. Experiencing time, expressing moments, emotions, meeting people, destinations and seeing beauty from different views has helped me understand that all of our lives are at once interconnected. It has made me appreciate my thoughts and feelings, how we see things and how we want to express them, how color and time are interconnected.



Through my photography I seek to document my own personal experiences, to capture scenes and events as I see them and to share with others the beauty and diversity of a beautiful town - Nafpaktos and the world I've seen. As the images of other photographers have inspired me to explore the world, I hope my own contributions will inspire others to do the same.



I view the art of photography as a subtractive process, a distilling of reality into a personal vision. As such I often use the tools of modern photography – digital enhancement – to try to capture in an image the emotions I felt at that particular moment. Though originally trained as a Chemist and Multimedia Programmer, I have been involved in Design and photography for the past 10 years.



I experienced a renewed enthusiasm and appreciation for photography after enhancing my design and multimedia skills. I specialize in Hotels & Travel photography and my work includes subjects ranging from panoramic landscapes to people, still life and to abstracts. I really love the ability to mingle with endless minds. I believe that by interacting with people who see color and time with a different perspective enables creativity and true design. These days, we live in a techno-social-interactive-society therefore we shouldn't lose touch with nature, since nature is the true essence of design; we are just trying to express it!



I think a lot, do a lot......like to know what I'm doing and sometimes when.... Can't be bothered with looses.....

I have double major in Chemistry & Biochemistry & a minor in Multimedia. I pursued the multimedia & design path since that was my inspiration, the others simply a chance or mistake...possibly.



I have an extensive background, have worked in numerous jobs while conducting my schooling, have worked for LLOYD, AQUILA & PARIZI to name a few. Since then I have moved on to new ideas and inspirations...

I own a business: 2PROGRESSIVE - www.2progressive.gr.

I love what I do and try to do it best.. When I'm not designing or programming, I'am in the dojo, Seidokaikan - knock down Karate.. no messing around :) A good work out cleans the mind...

(A friend and someone who lives what he does): Sensei: Fotis Skouzis.





Byt the way, I really love the ability to mingle with endless minds. The ability to be confronted and judged, and especially constructive criticism from talented people.

Where to now? Well, I want to take Photoshop, Photography, Illustrator, 3d and Motion Programming to the next level. I believe that by interacting with people who see color and time with a different perspective enables creativity and true design.

I have deleted many of my contacts, I prefer to keep a tight list where I can comment on others work, I'm here to learn and appreciate others work, and vice - versa. I don't like groups, groups mean nothing to me, if you like someone's work then comment, else, don't bother.
