TITLE: Dancing House
As I stood before the Dancing House in Prague, I wanted to capture more than just its unconventional architecture—I aimed to freeze its rhythm, its energy, its defiance against the rigid skyline. The fluid lines and asymmetric windows seemed to move with the city’s pulse, bending and twisting as if caught mid-dance. In black and white, the contrast between its modern curves and the surrounding classical facades became even more pronounced, a visual conversation between old and new. The play of light on its glass and concrete surfaces shifted with every passing moment, making it feel alive. This photograph is my attempt to translate that movement into stillness, to let the viewer see and feel the dance.
AUTHOR: Erhan Coral (Turkey)
I am a self-taught street photographer out of Istanbul who's been shooting for years. It was started years ago with a very basic analogue camera as a mere hobby, but has eventually turned into a passion. I mainly shoot in B&W, love to be on the streets and love to catch people in their sincerest moments.
Having been born and raised in Istanbul gave me the opportunity to pursue my photography with more fervour, providing a culturally mixed and vibrant environment and being an avid traveller gave me the additional chance to be able to shoot different cities, different cultures and different people at the same time; as Graciela Iturbide once said "In the end, photography for me is just an excuse to get to know the world."
I was deeply inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Vivian Meier, Josef Koudelka, Martin Munkacsi, Fan Ho, Saul Leiter, Elliott Erwitt, Peter Lindberg, Mary Ellen Mark, Ara Güler, Sebastiao Salgado and on and on and on….
