as You may not reach the end:

Thank You for all the comments. I read and appreciate them. Feel free to criticize but try not to be offensive - it can only improve my skills. If You ask me a question I shall answer You via flickrmail.

 

a bit more:

I'm bit messy. I enjoy chaos. and I am very lazy. I go onward all the time but held my memories tight to me. I go my own way and live next to the real life.

 

Freedom is what I appreciate the most.

 

I find life as a way towards death. It is human's task and possibility to make it interesting, fruitful... don't expect anything more.

 

I love the world in its variety.

 

There are only two deadly sins: ignorance and intolerance.

 

 

I believe the lens should be directed opposite to the photographer not towards him - the photography is expression of how you see and feel the world.

 

I admire the beauty of female's body.

I generally shoot black and white on 35mm negative. I concentrate on portraits, nudes, ruins and industrial landscapes [and all possible combinations of that 4 ;) ] the rest is accidental.

 

I don't disregard digital photography in general. hmm.. or maybe I disregard it in general but admire the exceptions ;)

I've chosen the 35mm because it's a harder way. You have one chance and you learn on your mistakes. It makes you think over everything before the shot. So, if you do the same - you make photography. But if you shoot 1000 pics and chose 10 good - sorry imho, your skills are comparable to average monkey ;)

same goes to photoshop. first of all we all do visual arts. I sometimes modify my pics in darkroom (that what it's for, right?). but if PS serves you to change the starting-point totally - it is digital-art / computer graphic not a photography (but it still is an art, or at least may be ;P )

 

I shall never be Henri Cartier-Bresson ;(

but it's still worth to die trying ;)

 

last but not least: f.*.c.k. the rules.

 

as I've said: your life - your way.
