Sali focuses on her landscapes and gives them her very own unique touch. While working on her architecture degree, Sali developed a keen eye for structural design.

Sali gets behind the lens and polished up on her skills as a consistent part of the photography journey from streets to sunsets to height photography.

For Sali, a good shot is one where she ponders why it is so, evaluating its key characteristics, how she could implement her technique better in the future. You can find proof of this in her ever-improving and evolving work.
