BEST AUTHOR OF THE SALON
ARNALDO PAULO CHE, HONG KONG19 ACCEPTANCES & 4 AWARDS
My love for photography was initiated through my travels overseas where I found great interest in exploring my surroundings through the lens of my first DSLR camera in 2014.
Inspired by many great photographers, I was encouraged to further develop my photography techniques. Aside from photography, my greatest passion is to travel to bewildered and mystifying places and countries where I can explore and capture the infinite beauty of traditional cultures and the untainted natural
environment.
Photography has certainly changed my life in the sense that it’s open my eyes and made me perceive the world around me differently. I am grateful for the support from the photography community and I would like
to continue to share with you the precious moments captured through the eye of my camera.
