Forest around the Chojnik castle in Sobieszów, Poland.
There is no such thing as a bed weather for photography.
I really like to photograph forests, mountains and generally nature when the weather is… let’s called it bad (for most people) – gloomy, rainy and misty 🙂
Enjoy the view! It was a beautiful morning…
Szybka jesienna sesja E & M / A quick autumn photo session of E & M – Park Południowy, Wrocław
Thousands of Poles in Poland and many cities across the world have gone on strike in protest against proposals for a new anti-abortion law.
Poland already has one of Europe’s most restrictive abortion laws… it cannot happen!
Few shots taken in Wrocław.
It was a summer hikes month!
Lots of photos, so be patient as it may take a moment to load.

A short summer walk in the Góry Sokole. I don’t think there is an English translation, but it literally means Falcon’s Mountains.
It is a very little mountain range, with the highest peak called Krzyżna Góra (Cross Mountain), 654 meters.
Góry Sokole and nearby Rudawy Janowicie are one of the most popular climbers spots in Poland, especially rock climbers.
Wanda Rutkiewicz started her climbing career on that rocks. She became the third woman, the first Pole, and the first European woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest. In 1986 she became the first woman to successfully climb and descend K2 (she has done it without oxygen!).
Street Wars in Jelenia Góra – my hometown.
It’s the annual b-boys/b-girls battles, graffiti jam & hip hop festival. This year it was the 6th edition of the event.
Excellent vibe, good music, great and friendly people! Pity the weather wasn’t favourable…
Babie lato is a polish name for a period of unseasonably warm, dry weather that sometimes occurs in early autumn. In North America it’s called Indian summer, Germans call it Altweibersommer or Spätsommer, in Sweden Brittsommar…
All those shots I have taken just minutes away from the Wrocław Airport, in Bystrzyca Valley Landscape Park (Park Krajobrazowy Dolina Bystrzycy).
Śnieżne Kotły, which translates as Snowy Pits are two glacial pits situated in the Karkonosze National Park, on the Polish side. It’s a very unique example of the alpine landscape in the Karkonosze Mountains and has been a nature reserve since 1933.
On the way to Snowy Pits you pass one of the oldest mountain shelter in the area, called „Pod Łabskim Szczytem”. Its history goes back to 17th century. Even in those days the electricity comes from generator and is available only for few hours a day 🙂
Come with me…
Summer!

Bolesławiec Pottery Festival takes place every August. This summer festival is very popular and brings many visitors from around the world. Everything happens at the Town Hall square and surrounding streets. You can buy ceramic goods, sculptures, traditional Polish food, take part in workshops, concerts and other events. The tradition of pottery making in the region of Bolesławiec goes back to 1380. There is also a flea market where you are able to get some old stuff like Nazi’s helmets, old guns, books etc. This year it was my second visit there, but I’m pretty sure I’ll be back there next year again 🙂
