If you want to be a photographer, you have to photograph, and there is very little that has missed the lens of Ilia`s cameras.

The opening of the Carter Center, the Forsyth county clan / civil rights rally, the gay pride parades, the celebrations of American life, and more.

Politicians, musicians, performers, and people just being people, all caught Ilia`s eye. From construction cranes he has caught the finishing touches of Atlanta`s trademark buildings.

And then there is the everyday world around us. From the floods of South Georgia, to the burned hulk of the Margaret Mitchel house. Frozen on film by Ilia Varcev, and waiting for us to rediscover.
