A storm cell moving towards the Island in Florida Keys
For the most of the time, Florida keys have a such of calm shallow waters that people can even live inside their ships and enjoy the calm weather and gorgeous sunsets. But during a few mounts from July to late October, the storm season in south Florida can change the weather dramatically in just a few minutes. That can be at the same time scared and beautifully amazing.

I am a landscape photographer based in Key West, Florida, originally from the Republic of Moldova. When I came in Key West, my photography journey became more fascinating, as I was surrounded by the ocean and water become mostly present in my photography as the subject, often combined with the human activity elements. I like to show moments that can't or can hardly be seen with the naked eye such as lightning strikes or the coastal shore using long exposure techniques. My ultimate goal is to bring positive changes in people's lives by spreading the beauty and appreciation of Mother Nature.
