He tried to capture special moments of interesting parts of life. He was interested in photography and was out shooting. I like his work, as it consists of interesting shots and keeps a fresh appearance.

It was not until later when I was researching the photo that I realized that it was supposed to to have normal lighting. However, I liked how mine had turned out, so I decided to keep it.
