At the Dawn Meeting

Yuliia Karas, Ukraine

I have been fond of photography since childhood, and for the last six years I have been doing it professionally. Most of all I prefer landscapes and macro photography. “The main task of the photographer is to convey the feeling of the moment, the emotions caused by this or that object of shooting. The photographer can reveal to the viewer what usually escapes the eye. You could say that photography is a frozen moment in time.” What is photography for me? This is a lot... This is a feeling, mood, life, emotions. Most of all I like landscape photography and macro photography. It captures the feeling of waiting for sunrise and sunset—it's like a new life. Yes, you can chase for a chic frame for a very long time, but it's worth it. Macro photography can show us in detail what we do not see, we pass by and do not realize that this or that, upon closer inspection, looks unusual. Now, when I travel around the world, street photography also captures me. Photographing random people in new cities, you can convey their emotions and the real life of the city, country. When I photograph the architecture of new places, I try to show how I feel and see it, even if these are well-known and seen places.
