Walking in Edgar Allan Poe's Mind

This was taken in in Ubeda, a small town near Cordoba, in the south of Spain. The town is really small, and at night the smaller streets are lit up using halogen lights, which give it a really nice orange glow. But its not lit up in all spaces, and in combination with the smaller streets, sometimes gives a very dramatic feel. If you are familar with Edgar Allan Poe's writings, it gives a very similar vibe (but maybe not so macabre). The high contrast lighting this provides is what I was after, and the shadows of the two people walking completes it.

Projects

The Tattoo Project
In this project, I have tried to take portraits of people with their tattoos, proudly showing the part the tattoos play in their lives.

Bangladesh
My country gets a lot of bad rep, and the only news you hear about it are about floods, cyclones, tragedies, political turmoil, etc. Its not what I remember growing up. I wanted to show a country that has so much more to offer than the sum of its statistics.
