16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
The heart does everything, the rest is useless.

What I like about photography is the banality, in order to bring another perspective. Sometimes it only takes a moment to admire this banality. We are all so afraid of the passage of time, of how things change or how they disappear, that's why we make pictures. We want to preserve all this, it's our nature. If we take pictures it is to stop time and to freeze moments for eternity. To make human nature more obvious.
