It’s been many years! If you are reading these words, there is a strong chance you have been following this blog for a while. Maybe some of you have been on this journey with me from the beginning, from my early travel and landscape photography. Others probably joined later when I posted my street photography [...]
Over the course of my photographic career, my visual interests have evolved from landscape to travel and from travel to street and creative photography. It has been a voyage of seeing, visual experimentation and self-discovery. In the last year, I noticed that this metamorphosis has accelerated and started me on a new visual journey. As [...]
It has been an unusual year, to say the least! Today, as this challenging year comes to an end, please allow me to share some personal thoughts and offer some hope of a better 2021. Few of you know that seventeen years ago, about this time of year, I spent six months fighting for my [...]
This blog and my private writings here are mostly focused on seeing, composition, inspiration and ideas, which aim at crafting stronger imagery and finding the path to more meaningful and fulfilling photography. Of course, from time to time I write about gear, which plays a role in our photographic journey, whether we admit it or [...]
I am working on a comprehensive review of the Hasselblad 907X 50c camera but I thought I would share with you my first, rather random, thoughts after shooting with this new system for the last five days.

In the last year, I’ve worked on photography from a slightly different angle than before. Most of my life I have crafted and curated my own images. In the last two years I have had the chance to work with an incredible team at the Medium Format Magazine, which exposes me to a different way [...]
The first school of thought is strongly against it. The image should speak for itself and there is no need to add any distractions in terms of a title or brief description. It is up to the viewer to see, experience and interpret the image. Based on heated conversations online, I suspect that most photographers [...]
On my travels I usually carry two key lenses, or in other words two focal lengths: GF 45mm (35mm in ff terms) and GF 110 (85mm in ff terms). By carrying just two lenses, not only do I eliminate the tyranny of “perceived choice” but most importantly I focus on two different perspectives. In other [...]
For me it was a very important and revealing trip – photographically and personally. Travelling through the rural and remote areas of Canada has rejuvenated me and refocused my photography. It has birthed my new “Come Back Soon” project. While visually, the project focuses on the forgotten, unused and “what others left behind” it has [...]
It has been a while. I am well aware of it. There is no question that both time and daily flow have been altered to a certain extent for all of us.
