entry description
The photo was created near my home in small Czech town Dobrichovice in January evening haze over the river. I wanted to have two different parts of picture - coloured foreground and black and white background and a walker that is moving between the two separate world (in unknown direction).about the photographer
I´m a self-taugh photographer originally from the Pilsen region (West of the Czech Republic), now living in Dobrichovice near Prague. I have been involved in photography since childhood, first only with B&W and home-made photos, later with color and infrared pictures. I have been exhibiting publicly since 2013. I try to make visible what is often not seen at first glance, so called “pictures from behind-the-light”. I like using of the very long exposure times in various areas of the spectrum and non-traditional work with lenses. In the last three years, my photographs have been shown at joint international exhibitions and in foreign photographic magazines.back to gallery
