The local festivals of Santorini

Santorini - The local Christian festivals.

I would like to describe my first contact with photography as a fatal collision that changed the route of my life. The warmth of an instinctive and unreasonable familiarity surrounded me. Like being home. Photography, in that way, became my vehicle of exploring the world in an endless journey. And I prefer making this journey through people. My eye is always trapped by people. In every place so different but so alike. Humans . Gestures ,looks ,cluster of bodies, eyes that meet, dangling motions. The whole life for me.
For that, every corner of the world hides a new photographic challenge for me. And as I always seek for them, that is what this competition represents for me. The opportunity to photograph other people in a different place, of different culture and daily routine so as to unite them with the rest of humanity through the bridge of communication photography builds.
From the other hand, I am curious about cooperating with an experienced in such terms photographer and see how an organized mission can be accomplished. I also want to test my strengths in such a serious affair from a worldwide agency and learn whatever the unexpected paths of such a trip can provide.
