*The Eye of Mesopotamia: Photographer İbrahim Şimşek*
I can say that my photography adventure started when I was born in Çelik village in Gölbaşı district of Adıyaman while the barley was being plucked. However, the real beginning of this adventure was when I stepped into the world of photography with my university life in Balıkesir in 1996. Today, I work as a geography teacher in Nizip, Gaziantep, and at the same time I continue my passion for photography in the fertile lands of Mesopotamia. My wife Nevin and my two children Deniz and Aras have always supported me in my photography. When I capture a good frame, the happiness in my home also increases; a day full of photography turns into joy at home.
