I am an architect (in the broadest sense), a gardener (in the Garden of Souls), a poet (self-proclaimed), a beekeeper (that's true), a thinker (yep), and, finally, a fine art photographer. My works happily reside in many private collections in the US and abroad. I was born and grew up in the former Soviet Union, doing many things besides architecture (illustrating books, painting murals and playing drums in a band, for example). Due to the turbulent winds of changes, in 1992 I made Atlanta, Georgia my hometown. The South could be hot as hell in summer for a guy from Siberia, but, still, I like it. I am a participant of different personal and group exhibitions (from coffee houses to the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum) and charity fine art auctions, like Trees Atlanta, Sierra Club and others. I post photographs on my website http://nostalgia.shutterchance.com/ You can follow me on facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/Nostalgia-Migranta-Viktor-Zyryanov-Photography/216950505028817
