About
Hi, my name is Efrat.
Photography stimulates all my senses, and I use it to convey both story and emotion.
I travel to thrilling places across the world, acquaint myself with people from different cultures
and their lifestyles, and bring back stories about experiences which excited me
as-well-as touching photographs.
Erez Erlichman described how
"
Photography Awakens All the Senses",
in Ynet "Click to the Nature" section.
My dear friend Ya'acov Shkolnik, described me in
one of the Eretz issues
as a nature photographer and traveler.
My close friend Danny Gaspar, wrote about my photography and love to nature
in "
The Photography Desire" and
"
The guru of Armchair Travel".
All quotes are in Hebrew.
Since 1986, photography is a substantial factor in my life and existence.
Along with that I do life coaching (find more in LinkedIn and my Hebrew coaching website).
I am frequently being asked how I can afford to travel around the world like this. While others
prefer material possessions, I cherish simplicity. I believe in the present, and in making the
most of life. As traveling, meeting fascinating people and being exposed to stunning vistas
make me feel great, I hold onto my strong will. I adhere to my preferences (well, almost always),
even when something pops up which seems like a reasonable excuse to cancel a trip.
The camera I am currently using is the Sony Alpha 350. I normally set the camera to the highest resolution (14 Mpixels). Some of the photographs were
taken using other cameras, with different resolution.
All photographs are copyrighted exclusively by me. Images may not be copied,
downloaded, or otherwise used without my written permission.
