entry description
It is an amazing feeling when you get sand on your head while taking these pictures, you have sand in your teeth; when athletes fly over your head or so close, everyone is driving towards you that you have fear in your eyes, the adrenaline level rises and you often have to run away with the camera to a safe place, but this is the risk of this job. The sacrifice was very big and dangerous for me, but later the effects of this struggle can be seen in the photos that were taken during this competition in a tiny town with 9,000 inhabitants.about the photographer
