He regards photography as “a way of collecting material to realize the ideas in his mind.” He is very popular among internet community with his mind boggling photo manipulations. Rather than correction, simple retouch and other editing tasks, he uses photoshop to create incredibly imaginative works of art. He simply depicts a daily life scene with a clever or bizarre twist.
