Photo painting for review

This will be a different type of post. It didn’t start with me taking pictures; it started with an advertisement. Facebook was offering me a photo painting for review. My first idea was that I would get a nice gift for someone; the second was that I’d find a new manufacturer of large prints that […]

Death to the Beast

The first time I’ve heard about the Beast was so long ago, I don’t really remember when it was. I don’t mean the legend of La Bête du Gévaudan; I’m speaking about the larp. It had already been played four times before I visited it with my camera. It was always in collision with something […]

Lipany 1434AD

Next year will be the 580th anniversary of the battle of Lipany, so everyone is expecting that the next year’s reenactment will be much bigger than this year. But even when it isn’t a rounded number it can still be good. All of it, the battle, the historical encampment and everything else was worth visiting. […]

Ayway, it seems that after a month of overcoming difficulties we have finally won and the register of economic entities has […]

Craft and Vision for the second time

EBooks that aren’t in Czech republic – that’s how you can describe the publication I’m writing about. If I went to any local bookstore looking for photography books, I would not be able but to wonder if everyone want only books like Tutorial to Wedding photography, Street photography in ten easy steps, Mastering time, aperture […]

These eBooks have something between twenty and forty pages and […]

Graduates exhibition

War Photographers 1914-1918

Photographical exhibition at Prague Castle. I was enjoying pneumonia for several weeks now, and it was really a striking experience, since my lungs are even normally functional only for 30%. I also changed my job and therefore I didn’t have enough energy or time to write. It might be better now. I  had visited a […]
