Black and white photographs of the Carpathians

Black and white photographs of the Carpathians

Suddenly you have forgotten how much I love the Carpathian Mountains. This is heartbreakingly beautiful! I live an hour away from them and I can grab a backpack with a tent at any time and go for a couple of days from humanity and get a billion impressions. Less words, more pictures. I will share with you a series of black and white photographs of my beloved Carpathians.

Camp of happy Roma people

Цигани

Once again, I caught myself thinking that I was somewhat jealous of the ability of Roma to enjoy simplicity. Many people know that for almost 7 years I have been working with Roma in camps in Transcarpathia.

Quiet loneliness of old people

Ф

During photography, the most interesting thing for me is always people, or rather their life stories. When I take pictures, I talk a lot. During this time, a huge number of photographs and life stories have accumulated, funny and not very funny. For a long time, I have had an unbearable longing after talking with old people. Feeling as if they are crushed and forgotten. As if they left all hope in the past, and they lacked the strength and perseverance to realize their dreams. Few of them are really happy.

International Roma Day

International Roma Day

On International Roma Day, I want to share with you my favorite portrait. The Roma theme is special and sensitive for me, I devoted 7 years of my life to them. Until now, the Roma, unfortunately, remain isolated in places where they live compactly. But I was lucky enough to be one of the few who saw their life from the inside. By the way, my beard also helped me in this, on which at first my authority was kept, especially among the kids. I especially remember this Roma girl for her big eyes and some special look. It was very pleasant to make her portrait due to the fact that she behaved like a professional young model - she did not move, she intuitively took the right pose and behaved very directly.

Hippie Festival in Shipit

Hippie Festival in Shipit

I go to the Shipit hippie festival with pleasure every year . This is a gathering of people who annually gather here not only to relax, but also to find new friends during informal communication. These are people who support the ideals of peace, love and freedom. This place has a very high level of tolerance and respect for each other.

Photo session for bitcoin

Today I was asked to have a photoshoot for bitcoin. This left me with mixed feelings and a lot of questions - does this mean that the guys from the fiscal service who are counting on me will not get anything? Where can you pay bitcoin? Well, now I can allow myself to go to the sin of greed.

Autumn fogs in the Carpathian mountains

К

Have you ever chased the fog? To take him by surprise, I had to climb the mountain range twice. The morning fog, which seemed to have tightly enveloped the slopes of the peaks during the night, melted and dissipated with the first rays of the sun, slipping away into the valley like a white river.

Photographing a naked girl

Photographing a naked girl

This photography was one of those few when the model understands you perfectly. Not right away, of course. Photographers know how important this is. At first, girls are always embarrassed to pose, not to mention a nude photo shoot, there is always awkwardness, tightness, a test of trust at the beginning. You need to get used to a person, get to know him, try to understand him. The girl confessed to me that at first she had my command “Freeze!” evoked feelings similar to when a dog is told to "Lie down!". She couldn't get used to the fact that she really couldn't move until the shot was taken.

Cats celebrate Vyshyvanka Day

Embroidery Day Ukraine

I arranged a parade of embroidered shirts at home. The number of cats, as you can see, allows. It turns out that my cats speak the best Ukrainian swear words. Not everyone liked the idea of ​​dressing up, the cats periodically tumbled sideways and refused to pose. It was read in their simultaneously sad, angry and arrogant look that “My master is an idiot. We already have wool suits.”

Mountain sickness during quarantine

Pip Ivan Chornohirsky

Quarantine was announced, and through this damn isolation it has already reached the condition and began to decompose morally. Therefore, I will share something beautiful and optimistic - photographs of mountains. Posting photos in a post can cause you psychological discomfort, exacerbate the syndrome of lack of mountains in the body. Possible side effects are complete relaxation. Viewing is prohibited for those who have not been on vacation for a long time.

Yahoo! Today is Tourist Day

Tourist Day

For me, Tourist Day is not only one of my favorite holidays, but also another opportunity to share my mountain photos with you. What for an avid tourist to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning and run to the top of the mountain in time to meet the sunrise? Or persistently look for a suitable place to successfully set up a tent? And the bumpy slope, which seems to have already imprinted on your back and ass during the night, that even a sleeping bag does not save? When you are alone with nature, you feel your connection with it and a special unity. And even clothes, at times, seem superfluous.

Rysya’s hunting instincts

Cat on the hunt

There is one thing that even the most avid cat-lover like me finds difficult to come to terms with - the hunting instinct of my Rysya. Almost every morning, instead of an alarm clock, I jump up from the fact that she digs her claws into my unsuspecting leg hanging from the edge of the bed. Therefore, without hesitation, I took Rysya for a photo hunt today. In addition, I have been looking for a partner for a long time.
