Publication in Lens Magazine.

Hey everyone,

Well I was talking about another announcement I would make this week. And I am happy to say that my Neshama Sheli project can be seen and read in Lens Magazine.

Sometimes I call it paying the man. Sometimes I quote Invictus. But in the end it just means hard work pays off…

Things like these for me are amazing and you can sure as hell expect that I will drink a beer or to to celebrate.

To know that your work will be in a printed and digital magazine I a crown on all of the hard work. Print of course the most haha.

I will expect that I will be working for another six years on this project. So who knows where it will end up in the end…

Thanks Dafna and Ziv!

You can buy Lens Magazine through PocketMags, Magtzer, and your Amazon Kindle. Physical prints go through MagCloud.

Don’t forget you can support my work by buying me a coffee on my Ko-fi page. Or buying a print of course.

Today is a good day!

Article in the French magazine L'Œil de la Photographie

Hey everyone,

And a day after the first article I have gotten the great news that my work is a featured portfolio in the French magazine L'Œil de la Photographie.

Two amazing ones in a row! I feel super blessed!

You can check it out here.

The most awesome publication... A cover in Iran.

Couple of day a go ...

Woke up... Made some very nice fresh coffee... Read some news...

Than the doorbell rang!

It was the package delivery service. I knew there was something on it's way. I just won a old vintage Scott receiver at a online auction. So I expected that one... But surprised as I could be, the delivery guy had two packages for me!

The receiver was all cool and stuff. But as soon as I noticed the second package and saw the stamps on the envelop I knew what it was.

It was my copy of the magazine I got published in from Iran!

Mehdi, the creator of the magazine contacted me a while a go if he could use one of my photographs I took in the Nasir Al-Mulk mosque in Shiraz. To be specific, it was the one with the lady with the gown.

I agreed and some time went by. He said to me he would send me a copy. But with the whole embargo thing going on I didn't expect anything. Maybe the government would hold it or something. I don't know.

But it arrived!

So screw the amp!

I guess I don't have to tell how cool it is to see your work published. Let alone in a magazine in Iran. But a little hint. Getting a magazine out there goes a little bit different over there than here in the west and is a bit more difficult.

Mehdi did a beautiful job and the magazine is about arts and culture. I even got the cover!

He translated some articles for me. And even within the package he included some prints of his province where he lives. Borujerd...

Of course it would be amazing to be on the cover of National Geographic one day... But this... man... I guess for me it is even way cooler.

Anyways! It made me very happy!

I put some photos below if you want to have a look.

P.S.

The receiver is awesome too. Listening to my records while I am writing...
