"NATURE"
Emre
Ikizler became an expert in photographer education and photograph
publishing. Still, on his travels his amateur spirit appears and
lets him focus on nature and people.

selection of the fruit of various travels. He gives special
attention to visually beautiful landscapes, hard to reach mountains
and lakes in nearly inaccessible places and close ups of flowers and
beetles. He underlines differences in nature employing a simple
expressive language and the masterly use of colour.
