Photos from the series are taken during my trips around Poland, Italy and France. It’s a very lengthy process. Only one or two photos from a trip are added to the series. I am seeking for a place that will ooze mildness or splendour. I usually find it in the vicinity of water and not-so-tall mountains.

Zen masters say: You should spend 20 minutes a day communing with nature, unless you are busy. If so, you should soak up nature for an hour.

“Beautiful!. The heart grows. An original approach to landscape as a painterly impression, in which the clarity of the reproduction of reality and the detail of the details recorded in the photo are not so much secondary, but undesirable. A risk that has paid off. (…) An abstract image plus a very specific (but brief) caption turned out to be a great success here. The submitted works are also a good example of decent editing of the material – we see visually coherent photos, but diverse enough not to bore the viewer. Bravo! ” –  Szeroki Kadr, “Inspiracje”
