At that time, on February 21, 2016, some friend organized a group photo event, during which we would have taken photos inside the Hungarian Palace of Arts, among other places. But in the end, only I went there… 🙂 But once I was there, I went in and took these surreal pictures. It’s not the place that’s surreal, but my way of seeing my inner vision of the world, especially at that time. To achieve this visual effect, I used my own unique and “irregular”method of usage of lenses and lens adaptors. As I usually say, I practically completely dazzled the photons that reached the sensor. 😀

In the present (last... about 1-2 years) I take mostly realistic photos of the world (for example street photos, what I started with my photography carrier back in early 2010), but who knows what's coming... :)

I was always interested in photography, and I used film SLRs since my "childhood", but didn't took it "seriously".

I decided to take it seriously in November 2009... :)   After few trials and plays at home I started to do street photography.  I developed my own art style in it, and later too, when I started the abstract/surreal series, which project for I gave the title oculus-AG (oculus is the Latin for eye and AG is my monogram)...  I had my first solo exhibition in September 2010 and 'till today I had 10 solo and approx. 60-65 group exhibitions.
