I'm Hasanbeyli, a landscape photographer working from Europe. A few things I'm glad to have done so far:
Photographed old towns and wild places in Italy, Japan, Iceland and across Türkiye
Sent signed fine art prints to homes and offices around the world
Started a YouTube channel where I film the timelapses behind my photographs
How it started
With a secondhand camera and a habit of walking too far at night. I wanted to know what familiar places looked like after everyone went home. The answer was usually better than I expected.
Sazova Castle, Eskişehir. Four nights of cloud, then twenty clear minutes.
These days I plan trips around moon phases and weather maps. Venice in winter, Japan in autumn, Iceland when the nights get long. I go back to the same spot again and again until the light is right.
An early favourite photo
One of the first photographs I was really happy with.
What I believe in
Every photograph on this site is one real scene. I adjust colour and contrast the way a darkroom printer would. I don't add skies, moons or people that weren't there. What matters to me is that you could stand where I stood and see it too.
Behind the scenes · camera on tripod at night
Where I spend most evenings.
In my bag
A full frame mirrorless camera, light enough to hike with
A wide zoom for most landscapes and a telephoto for the moon
A carbon tripod, ND filters and a head torch with a red light
Taking people to places they'd love to stand in is the best job I can think of.
