Rarindra Prakarsa, a veteran graphic designer from Jakarta, Indonesia, describes himself as a semi-professional photographer. In his eyes, Indonesia is full of exciting shooting places and subjects. He uses his camera to record the people and environment around him, and uses his photography to show people his beautiful country and the beautiful people around him.

The figure of the violinist in the backlight and the shade of the trees, the fishing nets thrown in the phosphorescent light in the morning, the innocent laughter, the country paths... Many seemingly ordinary scenes become unusual scenes in Rarindra's shots, everything is so quiet and full of inexhaustible enthusiasm for life, humanity and nature. In Rarindra's own words, he wants his photos to have the visual effect of painting. This should be everyone's yearning and pursuit of humanistic and natural photography, and it is also a point of view that Rarindra adheres to for his own photography. The actual results will be seen in a moment. The "semi-professional" photographer, who started his own photography in 1995, combines the photography skills he learned in technology school with the image editing skills he accumulated as a graphic designer to create beautiful and picturesque works in front of him.
