PORTRAITURE
There is no single form or style of portraiture. Portraiture means individualism and such means diversity, self-expression, private point of view. The most successful image seem to be those which exist on several planes at once and which reflect the fantasy and understanding of many. And everywhere is something which could be beautiful. You must only to see and to know what and how to take off, to crop from the infinity. Abstract, fine art, nature, landscape and portrait photography.
_LANDSCAPE
For me, a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes at every moment, but the surrounding atmosphere brings it to life the light and the air which vary continually, it is only the surrounding atmosphere which give subject their true value. And having photographed the landscape for a number of years, without consciously thinking about it, that it was a great learning experience for me in terms of organizing elements.

SUNSET
Nobody of any culture, for instance, ever talks nowadays about the beauty of sunset. Sunsets are quite old fashioned. To admire them is a distinct sign of provincialism of temperament. Upon the other hand they go on. And towards sunset we had cleared down to the level of the 12th step, which was sufficient to expose a large part of the upper portion of a plastered and sealed doorway.
FESTIVAL
There will also be some people who concentrate their attention on the rituals of worship and the offering being made, such as the breaking of coconuts, the waving of lamps and incense, and the devotion expressed through these rituals. The number of people with this kind of vision and interest will be much smaller the those who concentrate on the decorations, the dances and dramas and all the external paraphernalia associated with the festival.
