I discovered photography as an art-form when I was 14. I started with old USSR film camera - ZENIT 10. It quickly became an escape from the trials of adolescence and filled all my spare time. The reason to get up in the morning and go in town to create new pics. To re-arrange your bedroom furniture and make from it studio. To save money for brand new Nikon DSLR. To show the world every new photo. To fall asleep with ideas for new creations.
