Nea Kameni
A view of the volcanic island "Nea Kameni" across the expanse of Santorini's caldera, from the capital village of Fira. The atmosphere is so thick with serenity here that it is impossible to feel stressed out. Life moves in a much slower pace on the Greek islands; such a contrast with the hectic North American lifestyle.

Currently in Toronto, Canada.
I seem to find my greatest inspiration for photography while travelling. Sunlight seems to fall to earth in a different manner in other countries - sometimes warmer, sometimes quieter, sometimes with a vengeance, but always with a fresh perspective.
