When people have difficulties and get hurt through the lives, they try to run out of daily lives and go to nature. Seeking the peace and ease, we are away from the people, crowded cities and turn our sights toward the nature. Great Nature is regarded pureness, eternity, abundance and tolerance.   Of course, I am not an exception. Tired and hurt, I needed some exits to heal my mind and spirit. I took photographs-lakes, oceans, flowers, trees, etc. traveling many places. The nature always welcomed and embraced me without asking any questions. I felt I was gradually being cured. Through the camera lens, I looked at nature closely and realized that nature which seemed perfect had been suffering, tearing and sometimes, sighing like me. At that moment I was deeply inspired by the fact that nature was the same existence as human being. Before, I thought nature and a human were “separate being” each. However, now I have found nature and the human are connected and influence each other. The most important thing I found was nature had given me a lot of comforts and healing even though it had its own hurts. I realized that it is the best to live in harmony with nature, letting go of my greed. Now I ask nature, “How are you doing? Are you alright?”
