Photography since 2006
"Photography has been one of my creative passions since high school. I never took any formal classes or lessons — my approach has always been intuitive, guided by feeling and curiosity.
I was first drawn to landscapes, deeply influenced by my father’s extensive collection. But with the rise of internet culture, my interests expanded — I began exploring conceptual and abstract photography, fascinated by how images can speak beyond words.
Some of my landscape oil paintings were inspired by photographs I took myself. There's something magical about capturing a moment — a rare contrast, an unexpected harmony, or even a scene that feels disjointed yet emotionally charged.
For me, photography is a way to stabilize the fleeting. It lets me translate the emotional essence of experience into something visual, something permanent — a still image that vibrates with feeling.
> While I haven’t pursued photography professionally or commercially, my images have received genuine and kind recognition, admiration from artists and professional photographers around the world, both online and in real life."

I saw this plastic cup on the grass and it reminded me of this fact "Plastic does not disappear in nature for a long time" which can be percevied as "romantic" with the sunset view! "Plastic cup and nature together, forever!?..." "A sarcastic approach that I thought it might remind people nature and plastics are not very happy together and we need to be mindful about this if we wish to have a harmonious relationship with our beautiful earth. © Copyright 2022, Esra Günen.
