While these cities owe their urbanism largely to Austro-Hungarian neoclassical architecture, contemporary architecture in Luka's works expressively penetrates the old cores, emphasizing the city's growth and the arrival of a new era. The Večernjak building emerges like a giant from the dusk, capturing the last rays of the sun, breaking them into pixels through its windows, while the building with scaffolding displays an impressive abstract play of geometric shapes with expressive organic forms of trees. In composing his photographs, he often uses diagonal composition to introduce liveliness and dynamism. He also employs shadow, twilight, and haze effects, creating metaphysical atmospheres, thus going beyond the appearance of reality. In metaphysical, empty environments, such as the Dolac market, objects speak for themselves, and the atmosphere of mystery and surreal reality is discerned from their shapes and colors. However, when Luka allows people into such spaces, their physiognomies are depersonalized, and with their movement and posture, they further deepen the metaphysics of space, entering the gaps of reality. By changing perspectives and capturing the movement of trams in his photographs, he demonstrates a futuristic interest in motion and dynamism, confirming his technical proficiency in mastering the medium of photography. Striking shadows of mother and father as essential figures and companions depict what Luka lives. Luka's photographs are warm and human, and his immersion in family and the urban environment is a strong part of his identity. Therefore, without hesitation, we can say that Luka's photographs are not captured through the "impersonal lens" of the camera but are filtered through the artist's multiple emotional layers.
