The King

When I was young, 6 or so, I had a book about nature. That book to me is a treasure, and actually it's a treasure with a poor family in a poor country back to that hard time. The pictures filled with color mesmerizing me and one thing I remember most is the picture of a kingfisher.

This is all I can remember about that picture: the King on his throne.

Slumscraper

I visited the poorest area in my city. All I can say is a big WOW in there. About how people here can ever live, how every thing can clash then be put together to form most unstable but outstanding structures to prove that human, in any environment is most adaptive being. The urban life has some of God's powers

Mixed media with my own photos, lots of painting elements and some misc. images on Google.
