(aka shameless self promotion )

I almost didn't believe it but... few moths ago I received a check from deviantArt. I was like, WOW, people are actually buying my prints (it wasn't a big check but still, WOW

) Someone has got my art on the wall

I think that's really cool and I wanna say thank you! It means a lot!

I decided to update my prints gallery so here you go:

It's been a while... My enthusiasm for photography is back and I can't wait to go outside and make some magic

This time I'm gonna feature one very creative photographer from my former town Osijek, Croatia.

Words, thoughts, photos and a quote!

Journal Entry: Thu Oct 4, 2007, 4:21 PM

Life doesn’t always have to be logical and sometimes things don't go the way you planed... And it's ok I guess, that's life

Sometimes I'm really tired of all the bad things happening around me but sometimes I'm a fighter. I feel like a fighter today and I'm grateful for many things. Friends especially.

You know who you are.

And for the rest, I apologize for not being there and for being kinda distant and reserved. I need time. (Why am I writing this here I have no idea, I don't want to be a drama queen and I'm sorry

)

Feature

Heroes quote (a huge fan here

):
"Where does it come from, this quest? This need to solve life's mysteries when the simplest of questions can never be answered? Why are we here? What is the soul? Why do we dream? Perhaps we'd be better off not looking at all. Not delving, not yearning. But that's not human nature. Not the human heart. That is not why we are here. Yet still we struggle to make a difference, to change the world, to dream of hope, never knowing for certain who we will meet along the way. Who among the world of strangers will hold our hand, touch our hearts, and share the pain and triumph?

We dream of hope, we dream of change, of fire, of love, of death. And then it happens; the dream becomes real, and the answer to this quest, this need to solve life's mysteries finally shows itself like the glowing light of the new dawn. So much struggle for meaning, for purpose. And in the end, we find it only in each other. Our shared experience of the fantastic and the mundane. The simple human need to find a kindred. To connect. And to know in our hearts... that we are not alone."

Hello

It's been a while, eh? Life is good, I'm moving to Zagreb (my hometown) in 3 days and I'm packing like crazy! Oh dear, so many stuff... But I feel positive about turning the new page in my life so wish me luck

Sorry for the girly design, I wanted something fresh and spring-like.

For Croatian folks: ako vas zanima casopis na kojem radim, mozete ga skinuti ovdje

Cya in Zagreb

And now, about the feature:

knocked me off with his wonderful gallery so check him out!

Photography & Inspiration

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 6, 2007, 11:45 AM

I believe you can find inspiration in anything; even in some cheesy teen series like One Tree Hill, so here it goes:

"Looking back on what I said all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I've come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way you wanted them to is a measure of a successful life, then some would say I'm a failure. The important thing is not to be bitter over life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past, and recognize that every day won't be sunny. And when you find yourself lost in the darkness of despair remember, it's only in the black of night that you see the stars, and those stars lead you back home. So don't be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble and fall, because most of the time the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you'll get everything you wish for. Maybe you'll get more than you ever could have imagined. Who knows where life will take you. The road is long and in the end, the journey is the destination."

I think that's smart...

Anyway, it's good to be back, I have lots of catching up to do but I'm looking forward to it. Thank you for all of your nice words and support, I wish you all the happiness in the world in year 2007.
Loveya!
