My interest in the art of photography began in the 'Unutulmayan Hatıralar' program broadcast on the radio in the 1960s, when a listener said, 'Photos should be the first things to be saved in a fire!' This statement greatly affected my view of photography and this art." "We showed our support for this art with our photography competition that we started 25 years ago, and this year we are celebrating its 20th anniversary in the international arena. Now, with your support, it is an invaluable happiness for me to contribute to the professionalization of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of young people in the art of photography."
