NFTakka made a partnership with Korel Eraybar, award-winning photographer, sportsman, paramedic, mountainer, author, and artist to create an OpenSea Premium collection with some of his best photo shots and digital art pieces.
Let me briefly introduce our artist:

Korel Eraybar was born in İstanbul in 1965 as the 3rd generation member of a family who had a hobby interest in photography. Though he did not find the classical film cameras quite attractive at that time, he has been taking photo shots since age 10 as he was born into this photographer family.

After these works, he took his master’s degree at İstanbul Technical University in the field of “Disasters and Emergency Situations Management”. He also took his doctorate degree and lectured for a while in the same university.

In the collection, together with Korel Eraybar, we carefully selected the images. The collection includes normal photo shots taken with his professional camera as well as versions of these photos as digitally mastered pieces.
