"Your images are amazing!"
Donata Wenders, photographer & wife of the movie director Wim Wenders

"I looked at your photos Petar. I like the fact that you are photographing very different subjects, with different techniques. This is the advantage of living in a place with not too much competition: in a capital like Paris, London or New York, young photographers are encouraged to stick to what they believe to be a style, but what is often not much more than a few tricks. While by trying many different ways, you may slowly reach the point where you say more about yourself than about the objects or the landscapes or the people you photograph – and this is where photography really interests me.. "
legendary photographer Frank Horvat
