About Me

IMG_5020 copy

Hello to All,

Just recently I realized I have more than 150 GB of my pictures on all my computers. That is a lot to embrace, a lot to edit, and a lot to keep a track of. To prove to myself I am not an e-hoarder I needed to let the majority of them go, some to keep, and some to share. In a way, writing this blog is helping me to do the major “closet cleaning”. I have to admit that the part of taking pictures is the most exciting one, editing is OK too, but who has all the patience to keep the butt down on the chair and keep the eye young and fresh while staring on the computer screen for hours? Well, I am taking upon a huge challenge to stay focused and organized, be critical and kind to my own mistakes, be creative and flexible. I surely do have fun creating my blog.

Please note that all photos on this site are mine, mine and only mine.  If you find my approach in photography interesting to you and you plan to work at a project or get a couple of lessons on colors, textures, viewpoints, and basic photography composition rules, please contact me via e-mail natmaks@gmail.com

  1. Love your page! You, along with many travelers could utilize our new and upcoming app, POI. It’s for the travelers and the locals to post their points of interest!

    I’d like to start a movement. To inspire people to live and see more of the world. POI’s purpose is to create a community and world awareness -where the focus is the world’s point’s of interest. It becomes a shared goal to explore and exploit the world’s POI!

    I’d appreciate to hear your feedback. Let me know if this is something you’d like to updated on – upcoming release and details on the app!

    Let me know your thoughts!

    Thanks,
    The POI Movement

  18. Thank you for visiting my blog. It’s a pleasure to see your wonderful photos. I have a massive collection I am trying to clean up as well, unfortunately I hoard most of it right here in the lappy.

  24. Hey, I’ve only had a chance to check out a small amount of your work I think its really great. Not only because you are a girl travelling India, which is something as a girl I would be too scared to do. Also because your work is fun to read and informative. Kudos, and keep it up!

  26. Love your pictures. Have you considered an external hard drive to store them? Maybe put them all on a disk. I use an external hard drive for my music. It takes a lot of space too.

    • Now I do have all my collections on the external derive. Currently, I am working at editing and sorting out my collections. It’s a lot. I am tossing out ton of images which I would consider ok a few years ago. Now I have different perspective on them.
