Akhtar Issak is a contemporary photographer known for his evocative street photography, particularly from Zanzibar's Stone Town. His work captures the richness and diversity of everyday life, focusing on the interplay of light, shadow, and human emotion in urban landscapes.

With a journalistic approach, his photography provides a raw and authentic look into the lives and streets of the communities he explores

However the images he received and captured over the years have mainly been collecting digital dust on his hard drives. A few have found their way on to Instagram. It wasn't until recently that he was confident enough and ready to publish more, and thus found a new home for his images at Noourlys.no.

Chasing light and shadows, the fleeting moments has become his new playbook, constantly in search, hoping to receive magical moments between work, family, friends and other duties.

Hope you find his work interesting.
