"I am trying to improve my photography, it is still relatively new for me. Being self taught, I am learning by studying other peoples work. Michael's photos and style are truly unique. I am learning from these photo's and I am seeing things in new ways. Thank you for that."

"Michal? Michal czaruje...
He's a magician...I think he could also stand behind the camera and make movies...but it's not necessary because he is able to tell a thousand stories with a single shot...stories about humans, that get a indivudual face, charactes, life and history...we only can imagine...
He has above all good sense of colors, angels, lenses, focusses, compositions...and you could clearly see his perception is immensly inspired by the big names from world art cinema (as those mentioned in his profile description par example).
Thank you for being here and posting you amazing photographs!
Ilona"
