I was born in a region of the world where a day can include all four seasons. Mountains, seas, forests, and historical structures have all had an unstoppable power draw me to them since I was a young child.
I was born in a region of the world where a day can include all four seasons. Mountains, seas, forests, and historical structures have all had an unstoppable power draw me to them since I was a young child.
My eagerness to see and view the historical textures, natural splendors, and artifacts was insatiable. Due to this never-ending urge, it occurred to me that I constantly take abstract photos and embroider all the beauty I perceive in my heart, mind, and soul.
Naturally, neither I nor those who knew me were surprised by the fact that I teach geography and received my education in a setting where the spectacular and rich geography permeates to my bones.
Warm, parched, and sincere like Southeastern Anatolia; aggressive like the Black Sea; clear like the Aegean; warm and green like the Mediterranean; peaceful like Central Anatolia; reminiscent of a swaying ear of wheat; snowy like Eastern Anatolia; covered in peak and white snow; Marmara was continually drawing me in the same direction, much like my spirit of mobility.
I felt elusive and enigmatic like the yilki horses. Despite the independence and challenges of this geography, I was leading a very colorful life there, but I was also captive to its many natural charms.
I had a different me in my body, too, as Yunus Emre mentioned. My love for photography developed from my passion for it, which gave me the chance to capture the vibrant world inside and around me in images that will live forever. It was photography and it was the other me in me. On his voyage, which he began while the picture was fuzzy, it became clearer and clearer each day.
Until 3 years ago, when I was a Geography Teacher at TED College, one of the most prestigious schools in Turkey, and an academician at Nuh Naci Yazgan University, Faculty of Fine Arts, I couldn't resist the art vortex that engulfed me. Putting my passion for photography, my soul and my heart in my suitcase, I set out for the place where I was called. In photography workshops, I constantly renewed and improved myself with my masters, ethusiasts and photographer friends. This development gave me great pleasure and indescribable happiness.
The spirit of the year in me brought to the heights the desire to watch, examine and convey the rich characteristics of horses to other people. The excitement and joy of being with horses in the wild, their magnificent images, had to be passed on to future generations. I learned a lot from the free spirit, strength, harmony, nobility and grace of horses. I combined my love and respect for these wise beings with my passion for photography. In order to continue my true passion in fine art photography, I have always been close to the years and followed their footsteps. Now I am in pursuit of catching their freedom and power.
As a master of photography in art workshops in Denizli and Kayseri, I organize Turkey Photography Tours, Cappadocia Photography Tours, tour organizations with extraordinary and original subjects, tourism organizations. I enjoy the fact that my photos and documentaries are featured in many publications and sold for multimedia.
A traveler with a spirit that is passionate and energized by constant pursuit.

Nuri Çorbacıoğlu has been crowning his love for horses and his debt of loyalty with a social responsibility project in Cappadocia, under the name of HORSE VALLEY, in which he took horses under protection. It will collect and reproduce horse species that are about to disappear in Anatolia, and also collect horses that have worked under difficult conditions in agriculture or that have been abandoned, in HORSE VALLEY, offering them a nice retirement life. All expenses are covered by us. We are trying to keep this place afloat with the income we earn through photography and tourism, however, there are currently more than 100 horses in HORSE VALLEY. In the future, the number will increase even more. We will also bring a horse valley to cappadocia, which means the land of beautiful horses, we will multiply Anatolian horse breeds here, so HORSE VALLEY is important to us.
This is our project that includes horse photos from Tuz Gölü, photos of Sultan Sazlığı, Hürmetçi Sazlığı Yilki Horses (Wild Horses), photos of horses in horse farms in Cappadocia, and all photos of horses in Horse Valley. In this project, we are trying to introduce the horses of Cappadocia to the whole world.
