“From my perspective, if I want to draw the viewer’s attention to the more important object, removing unnecessary extra elements in the image will draw suitable attention to the main subject in the photo.” -Ali Zolghadri

I am Ali Zolghadri, a minimalist and fine art style photographer.
All images were taken in my homeland in Tehran, Iran. My goal in reviling this collection of clean, minimalistic line images is to show people Tehran’s different areas and touches. I am expressing the beauty of small moments, short human moments.
Showing simplicity while showing beauty in a simple combination is my goal.
In this series, I have removed the elements in the photos. From my perspective, if I want to draw the viewer’s attention to the more important object, removing unnecessary extra elements in the image will draw suitable attention to the main subject in the photo.

For the editing process, I used Adobe Photoshop software. Sometimes I use two photos that I have taken to present my perfect image, a journey that leads to the presented outcome. This technique helps me express my creativity.
I focus on modern buildings, shadows, people, lines, symbols, and whatever a minimalist photographer needs to present his story artistically. All of these photos tell a story of the city.
