Look
a triangle of presence, where the observer becomes part of the scene. In this moment, subject and viewer shift places, reminding us that encounters, whether with nature, people, or ideas, are never one-sided.

Here
Their faces are hidden, not just by shadow, but by choice, because this image isn’t about identity.
It’s about feeling.
I took this photo on the edge of the Persian Gulf, a place heavy with my own memories. I’ve stood there many times, sometimes alone, sometimes with friends, watching the sky burn down into the sea. It’s a place where I’ve said goodbyes, made promises, and dreamt of other lives.
In this photo, I see the contrast between presence and disappearance.

Somewhere Between
This image explores time, memory, and urban identity. It blurs the line between nostalgia and immediacy, showing how cities are built not just of concrete and glass, but of stories layered upon stories.
It can symbolize curiosity about perspective, history, and how meaning is constructed in overlapping contexts.

Missed Golden
Just beyond the Golden Gate Bridge, crowds gather, cameras raised. Yet here, the cliffs fall quietly into the sea, a theatre of color, green forest, red earth, and turquoise water. It is beauty without an audience, truth without spectacle. I turned my lens not to what everyone sees, but to what is forgotten.
This photograph speaks to attention, value, and perspective. It reminds us that significance is not always in the celebrated symbol but in the quiet details we choose to notice. For an application, it reflects a mindset of curiosity: the willingness to look beyond the obvious, to find meaning where others might not think to look.

Milad
Milad Tower rises above the city, the tallest in Iran, yet here it is veiled by a heavy sky. Its sharp geometry, meant to symbolise progress and modernity, fades into pollution; present, but uncertain. Against the silhouettes of trees, the tower appears fragile, as though nature itself witnesses its struggle for clarity.

Wish me
One morning, I woke to this scene: horses grazing in silence, light unfolding across the hills.
I captured it with nothing more than a phone camera, guided not by preparation but by presence.
This photograph later received an award in the Samsung Mobile Photography Competition, chosen among 3,000 entries.
Art begins in attention, in the willingness to see beauty the moment it appears.

Fake Freedom
The sheep stand in the field, their world appearing vast, yet the frame is broken by barbed wire. Space exists, but not without limits. What looks like freedom is edged by control.

Small Infinite
This image reflects existence, solitude, and presence within infinity. The photograph is less about the boat or the sea and more about the tension between insignificance and significance; the paradox of being both tiny and essential in the face of the infinite.

Enormity
It is a moment between crossing and remaining, between fragility and strength. The scene becomes less about the bridge itself than about balance, how we hold ourselves when surrounded by enormity.

Wait for what
This image explores identity, concealment, and the duality of visibility. It speaks to the human condition of existing in thresholds: wanting to be seen, yet fearing exposure.

Magic
On the surface of a fallen tree, new life gathers. Mushrooms rise from decay, small yet luminous in the quiet forest. What seems like an ending becomes a beginning.
This image explores transformation, renewal, and the hidden labour of nature.

Together
What seems personal and small resonates with what is ancient and vast. The line of light becomes both boundary and bridge, suggesting that existence is not fragmented but woven together.

Age Reflection
The grandmother’s hands, weathered with years, anchor the moment; the reflection of her grandchildren shimmers like a vision of both past and future. Within the glass, love doubles itself, reminding us that memory is not only behind us; it is being made, right now, in the touch that binds generations.
