I am a dedicated carpenter with a passion for creating and building. Beyond my craftsmanship, I have a deep love for music and photography. To me, both are about the art of manipulating energy, capturing moments, and expressing creativity in unique ways.

The more I travel, the more I realize how alike we all are. We all want to love and be loved, to have a full belly and a warm bed. My world has no borders, no “illegals”, only good people striving to build a better tomorrow for themselves and their families.

#Denizli means "with the sea". But this city is not near any water. Yet palms sway inland, a city of irony and beauty!" 🌴✨

The tomb from 2-3 century AD in #Pamukkale, #Turkiye. Seeing these fascinates me every single time! 💙
Meanwhile @faudio.bsky.social is on action of his passion 📷

Hands down the best döner in Turkiye. Maybe the world. Fresh bread, ripe tomatos, letice, and Onion. No sauce, no gimmicks. Cooked over a wood fire. If anyone is coming to Denizli, message me and I'll give you the address.

‘Crazy Horse’ National Monument, SD - July 1984

Begun in 1948, this is as far as construction got by 1984. As of 2025, still nowhere near completed. I was lucky enough to capture demolitions in progress.

Denizli is a honest, hardworking, blue collar city. Besides Pamukkale. Denizli is know for textiles, marble, and roosters. Roosters have been a symbol of Denizli for well over 900 years. I love they build this fountain in the centre of their city. It's the largest glass sculpture in Turkiye
Colour photograph. A giant rooster made of glass sits a top a fountain made of marble. The fountain is made to look like the tarraces of Pamukkale.

Played tourists today. Haven't been to Pamukkale in,.. Oof, maybe a decade. This is not snow. It's calcium carbonate. The water is hot from the thermal springs.

Hiked up to the Karci (Snow) Mountain in my home town, Denizli in Turkiye. Typically this one gets the first snow and it stays all season. @faudio.bsky.social Thomas and I climbed up 900+ metres. I was so tired but so worth it! 💙

I'm freak'n out! I need help from the photography community. I'm leaving for 3 weeks to visit Elif's family in Turkiye. What film should I bring? All of this is entirely too much. I mean film wise. I'm very excited to see them. Any and all help greatly appreciated

Our yatch club is a Not-for-profit Sailing Co-op. We don't have staff or cranes. We all get together and push/pull all the boats in/out of the water. We've been doing it this way since 1889.

Finally got around to processing some film last night. The Jays game was so stressful I needed to distract myself. This is from Thanksgiving a couple weeks ago. So much to be thankful for

Dear @stephenking.bsky.social, I'm so sorry. I got your book. I'm supper excited to read it. But you see, it's the exact thickness I needed to raise my film carrier so I can scan my 35mm negatives. I've tried all the other books in our home. None stack up like yours. Thank you for the support

Well, this is a pain in the butt. On the up side, everyone is very happy with my work.

Toronto: not an igloo in sight

Population (GTA): 6.4M, 4th largest city in N.A.

Ranked one of the safest cities in N.A. even though it is considered the most multi-cultural city in the world where 160 different languages are spoken.

Tolerance is our superpower.

Prints! I'm really at a loss for words. It's one thing for someone to say they like your work, but to say they want to give you money and look at your work every day in their home. Wow. I literally started to tear up printing this. Deeply touched. Thank you Liz and Evan ❤️🫂
