• are, bure, boke #2

  The Japanese Provoke photographers’ slogan “are, bure, boke,” or “rough, blurred, out-of-focus” applies to many of my images. Some of these effects are intentional, more are not. Many people would dismiss these simply as “bad pictures,” but another view is possible: Photography is painting with light! The blurs, the spots, those are errors! But the errors…

• always with a smile (Prague cemeteries #2)

  Established in 1680, the complex of cemeteries at Olšany, on the borders of Vinohrady and Žižkov, is the largest in the Czech Republic.

But Prague has never…
