Saving it for later

This is my Photo Diary, which is a valid excuse for the low standard of the images. All of my best works are on my flickr which you can find through the link below. I have a personal blog too so go check that out i guess.

The Other Side

Photographer Jorge Pérez Higuerahas, has imagined what the average Imperial Stormtrooper does on their day off in his latest series. Turns out they live pretty ordinary lives like the rest of us.

People in Islam: Peter Sanders

Islam, for many converts comes into their lives in ways they hadn’t expected. A young Peter Sanders worked as a photographer in London’s growing rock scene in the 1960s taking pictures of rock stars like Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones, and many others. In the early 1970s, Peter traveled to India with his camera and came to a spiritual awakening and became Muslim. Turning his camera from rock stars to minarets, Brother Peter traveled the Muslim world and documented his travels from Morocco to Iran, taking elegant pictures of the Al-Masjid al-Nabawī, Hajj in Mecca, and Agha Bozorg Mosque in Iran, among many other places you can see more if you visit his website here. Br. Peter Sanders is also an author of three books, In the Shade of the Tree: A Photographic Odyssey Through the Muslim World and The Art of Integration, which deals with insight to Muslims integrated with the West without compromising their ideals and how they live in their own countries, while his third book Meeting with Mountains showcases the scholars and ordinary people he’s met over his 40 year journey in Islam.

Peter Sanders provides an invaluable service in capturing in picture the Muslim world, being commissioned by the Moroccan king to document the nation’s most important mosques and by sharing nearly a quarter-million photographs that he’s taken over his life’s journey.

Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.
