FAR AWAY PLACES

I GREW UP IN AN URBAN AREA BUT ALWAYS ENJOYED THE WOODS, THE MOUNTAINS AND NATURE IN GENERAL. DURING MY STUDIES I SPENT MOST OF MY TIME AND MONEY FOR TRAVELING AND EVENTUALLY THIS BROUGHT ME TO A SIX MONTHS TRIP TO SOUTHERN AFRICA. BETWEEN THE FIRST AND THE SECOND TRIP WERE ONLY FIVE MONTHS SINCE THAT I AM VISITING THE AFRICAN CONTINENT AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR.

BEING EYE TO EYE WITH THESE WILD ANIMALS GIVES ME AN INDESCRIBABLE FEELING. WITH MY PICTURES I AM TRYING TO CAPTURE THESE MOMENTS THAT I EXPERIENCE DURING MY TRAVELS AND BRING THEM BACK HOME. EVERY PICTURE I TAKE IS LINKED TO A STRONG MEMORY AND I ALWAYS REMEMBER THE PLACE, THE SITUATION, THE PEOPLE THAT WERE WITH ME AND I CAN RELIVE THE MOMENT.

MY PASSION FOR AFRICA AND ITS WILDLIFE HAS ALSO LED TO AN INTEREST IN WILDLIFE CONSERVATION AND I HAVE PARTNERED WITH TWO CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS. - BY MICHAEL KRAUS

NIKE AIR MAGS aka MARTY MCFLY'S

UPDATE: Nike has officially announced that it will be releasing 1,500 pairs of the NIKE MAG. 

The NIKE MAG is no longer the 'greatest shoe never made.' The mythical shoes that originally captured the imagination of audiences in Back To The Future II is being released - and they're here to help  create a future without Parkinson's disease, Nike wrote in a press release. The 2011 NIKE MAG shoe was designed to be a precise replica of the original from Back To The Future II. The aesthetic is an exact match, down to the contours of the upper, the glowing LED panel and the electroluminescent NIKE in the strap. The 2011 NIKE MAG illuminates with the pinch of the "ear"  of the high top, glowing for five hours per charge" 

These shoes will be auctioned off on EBAY Fashion Vault and proceeds will be donated to the Michael J. Fox Foundation. 

Visit NIKEMEDIA.com for more details on the sale which will begin September 8th, at 8:30PM PST.
