The juxtaposition of people and mannequins is quite a popular trope. After all, there’s a lot of symbolism as well as parallelism when you put a real person next to a plastic human-shape object. We’ve seen it many times in many… Continue reading – http://bit.ly/2CsUSeT

Street Frames
One of my new year resolutions this year was to start printing my photos and I’ve done it as described here. But somewhere in the back of my mind, there was an ambition to make a photo book. And today, after long hours (and days) of selecting, reviewing and putting everything together I’m proud to…
