Over this year, I fell in love with animal photography. While traveling recently, I’ve had the opportunity to capture some beautiful animals in photographs. As a front-end developer, I felt it was only right to create a dedicated website to showcase my photography and services, while also serving as an educational resource for people to learn more about rare animals. Check the website here.
These are some of the animals I’ve photographed:
There’s more to see on the dedicated site I’ve set up, and I’m currently editing plenty more images to add to the website.
One of the highlights of the month of April was seeing the Great Wall of China. Few things in life truly take your breath away when seen in person, but the Great Wall is one of them. The incredible architectural structure and sheer magnitude of the wall made this a truly memorable bucket list experience.
I captured several photographs during my visit. Below, you’ll find a gallery showcasing some of the images from the Great Wall of China.

I recently explored the monastery in Montserrat, Spain, perched atop a mountain. This World Heritage site houses the renowned Black Madonna statue, believed to have been carved in Jerusalem during Christianity’s early days. Many pilgrims visit the monastery, drawn by the belief that touching the Black Madonna statue bestows safety, healing, and guidance.
The monastery offers a unique location for exploration. It features an excellent hiking trail that allows visitors to climb and view the monastery from above.
It features a small market selling locally produced honey and cheese. You can also find great souvenirs just outside the monastery grounds.
As part of my design blog Creative Nerds, I enjoy creating useful Photoshop and Illustrator designs on a monthly basis for fellow designers and photographers to learn tricks and techniques. This post is a collection of those tutorials I have recorded in 2024.
