First, let me introduce myself. My name is Darko Ivančević, born in 1979 in Kikinda, small town at the north of Serbia. For almost a decade I am living, studying and working in Belgrade. My first contact with the magic of photography was long time ago, I could still use fingers on my hands to show my age. Photography was always somewhere there, going beside my life and barely touching it. But, very recently, several years ago, this interest started to develop and I became more interested in subject. I was asking myself why this didn’t happen before and why it took me so much time to discover this obvious passion? Well, there is only one possible answer and it is that my interest is related to digital photography. This is mainly for its ability of post processing and more control over the process of creating. Creative abilities are unlimited and what is even better it is available to everyone.

Site you are now looking at and reading these lines is, first of all, my personal presentation. Some of my photos were published by entering some competitions in the magazines and on the internet, but I decided to present myself in this way, to be able to express what I feel and see. Also, for Serbian version I am doing a guide to photography. During my research and studying skills of photography I realized that this kind of literature is very poor in Serbian, with English language situation is completely different. I had the same idea when I was writing for "Mikro PC World" (PC World Serbia) magazine during 2004. English version is made for easier browsing through my work for people outside of Serbia. One of the main thoughts I had (among other things) when I started all this, was to receive your comments, and I would appreciate if you have some creative advice or just an opinion you want to share.
