African elephant, Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe

SORES DOGAN PHOTOGRAPHY..!




“I loved the lighting on this shot, which was taken from the grounds of my camp in Hwange National Park just before sunset. The elephants milled around for some time, mixing with other species that happened by every now and then, such as the impala in the foreground.”

Sores Dogan s Trip Advisor

Hotel to stay: Hotel Europe Sarajevo.....excellent hotel with premium location and the best cafe in town right under the hotel in Bajcarsi district.
Where to eat: Buregdzinica Bosna......Since you are in Bosnia you have to taste the Bosnian Borek . I think this is one of the best where you can try.

Sores Dogan-Paris
Hotel to Stay:Mercure Paris Montmartre Sacre Coeur ....Very close to the attraction(Mouline Rouge , Sacre Coeur etc) but far away from Eifell traffic of tourist .

Where to eat: Wepler.....Best price for a real french dish where French eats it.


Sores Dogan-Nice
Hotel To Stay:Ellington....In between beaches and train station with a fantastic staff.You can use their beach they provide towels.

Where to eat: La Favolla for sure it is great for the price. It might look weird to choose an Italian in france but it is like Italian with a French touch.

Lose yourself in the moment.

One of the things I love most about street photography is this feeling that I lose all consciousness of myself when out shooting on the streets. I no longer think of myself consciously as an entity– rather, I feel like my body melts into the streets and I become physically and spiritually embedded into the environment that I explore.
I lose consciousness of walking, of breathing, and even of holding my camera. I let my eyes wander– being fascinated by the people living their everyday lives on the streets, and their interactions. Whenever I see something I want to capture– I don’t hesitate. I fluidly approach my subject, and the camera almost takes the photo by itself. Of course I generally follow-up with a smile and a brief hello, and either continue to talk with them, or continue on my way.

One of the philosophies of Zen is that you should lose self-consciousness of yourself, and especially of your own ego. You don’t think of yourself as being great and the center of the world. Rather, you see yourself as something quite insignificant and just like a grain of sand in a desert.

When I am out shooting on the streets, the feeling of getting lost in the “flow” makes me feel much more comfortable shooting in the streets (and is often when I take my best photos). The second I become self-conscious, I find myself (sores dogan) drawing too much attention to myself and my subjects can sense my hesitation and feel less comfortable.

Sores Dogan -NYC
Hotel to Stay:If you have enough money for sure Waldorf may be New Yorker will be my second choice(cheaper for sure) or you can try zillions of choices most important thing is which part of the city you would liek to stay and this depends on what you are looking for. I would definetly suggest Manhattan eventhough it is a rush ...
