hello all good people out there. I know I had put much effort into this blog lately. There's just too much work to do.
Continuing from last time, vac. in Croatia. Back home, I found my town ... well ... flooded.


flooded scraps from local school, some students enjoying the destruction


I remember sitting on chairs like these.. looong time ago


Miro making a pic of the chair scene.


It was kinda sad seeing even books being thrown out.


main road was a bit under-flooded and hasn't been repaired until now (that's 3 months now)


a bridge to a school has been torn down by the water (the schools in Prievidza got it hard during that time)


 in tram to Strbske pleso, High Tatras (for a trip in mountains)

 Strbske pleso, dunno why I did this one

back home, shooting Zombiewalk again


Maddy with her geeky necklace (some RAM module I think)


making the dead 


and some living dead



the blood (in the small bottles) didn't look that bloody at first


later it got a bit more bloody


neat front-seat passenger


blood, more blood 

starting to think there's too much blood in this post


or more than usually


yet there's no blood like home made one.. pretty cold one


enough from preparations, getting to gathering point


I kinda wish parallel programming would work like this 


 I shouldn't be posting this one, a friend of mine took a photo very similar 


we went for a small shootout while waiting the zombiewalk starts 

weird, weird graffiti



oh, more blood. It really getting annoying now


I do like this policeman included photo


in the crowd itself


I haven't seen much photographers in there, clearly, all of them were running around like bunch of rabbits (thus ruining few good shots)


a dark angel made it.. well, not on time, almost at the end, whatever. It's there. 

Naah, this is what I've been talking about. Dunno who the hell is the guy, yet I know he had his camera for a month and took like 500 pictures (from those he published like 200, yeah, 200 of boring sh*t) and he has been every-fucking-where. I mean everywhere where I had composed.


from the pub where afterparty took place


Orphan movie poster


 last photo, I didn't wait till the afterparty, because I was a bit sick from that day. Two of zombies enjoying some smoke outside the pub.


a canvas ready to be painted on, sculpture, sculpturesque symposium, Cigel, Slovakia 

copy service back home, Karols friend. We were waiting for some prints.


 in tram from ... to Poprad, really slow, average speed of 30km/h (it a tram, but common 30? my bike can go faster)


all foreign students had to write down some info for the police, back in school, Brno


a new statue. FIY did you know, that in Brno there's the first theatre with artificial lighting (electrical I mean)... that's why they built some giant bulbs at the theatre


an old bus, as a street art invitation for who'd guess that ... an street art contest


sunny weather at 1st floor


can't really remember the talk, but I think Lucka tried to avoid being photographed


this is actually at school, faculty of philosophy, semester start party


Lucka's camo shoes, niiice


some kind of street art?


lucky japanese lanterns, many people actually believe in this crap.


seriously, many people. Torched one tree and well, my hair (and my jacket) while launching them


no real light there, just the candles, which are best to take photos of


at least some family had some fun, while not being in a shopping centre, definitely a plus


me a and weird statues at university campus grounds


some "tourists" taking a shortcut, quite hilly shortcut. I've kinda expected that they'd fall down. Yet none did ... whatever ...


cleaning "study room" after a party


brave man, took on a challenge cleaning the floor (never seen so much wine on a floor like that day)


reminds me of a part from Severin's article. Street photography is about everyday life and it's not journalism. It's about photographers feelings about the situation.


 most time, I think color are sort of odd. I mean, does it really matter that the pig is violet. Who needs color shot anyway? It's a mental training for me. 
In one of the looms around Brno.


 We've been looking for some fossils, no luck. 


in lower parts, there's a really strange lake, a toxic-green one


what a natural wonder 

this probably wouldn't work in BW


switched to BW, having a break around the lake, eating chocolate


getting back (to dorm) with a short stop at playground


the smallest shopping cart I've ever seen


something that looks like an oversized cheese, don't know the real purpose


hipshot for a change


university campus with its glory.. the statues, this one pretty neat. A bit interactive. Swinging a really big piece of rock, nothing you do at daily basis.


at faulty of sociology, roadworkers left some of their equipment on the road. No tram for me :( gotta travel by foot now


for a beer or two.  and music to listen while looking for at more photos


got home for two days, met some friends, went for a beer (I don't really like slovak beers, and that day reminded me why so), Mirka and his son


trying to "unravel" the swing


me and last sunrays, got a bit chilly afterwards





got back, went for a dance training to make some pics. because I've not taken a dance photo since I'm here


a reflection in the window 

it might seem a bit odd, but what the heck, they'd been doing things that made my back hurt just by looking at those people


the part where they had to improvise


Lucka! 


hmm, pretty much doing nothing just standing.. well, that can be too a contemporary dance


one from university campus, I'm currently working on a seminar paper about this veeery expensive part of university


confused workers?


in love with garbage (not the band)
it was actually pink
right next to a block of flats


family watching workers not working (as there were none)


gallery in old prison building 


very interesting interior, prison chapel, slightly altered by communists and then turned into gallery by capitalists


it's was a mess. Well, a building ready to be torn down. Let's make a gallery there!


harp without string, I'll definitely print this on 12x16"


fire shot at a bar, were we've been drinking coffee (really, coffee with liquor :) )


again one for a print


boys getting a little .. cheerful


Honza put and ice cube into his jacket


Junior wanted to put the glass into his pants, don't ask me why, I have no clue.


"open doors" at university campus, the map isn't helpful at all, every corridor looks the same


Moravian gallery carried out a commented visitation, mostly elderly people attented 


I made some photos and went for some coffee, it was quite boring and they actually said nothing. Except how wonderful this new campus is.. yet in reality it's not wonderful at all


shortly after the coffee, found this paper hat hanging in the coffee lounge (well, at least they say it's a coffee lounge, if you ask me, it's not)


the day I sent my lens into service, using quite longer lens, man in a tram


and old lady in the same tram


autumn mood, they use grass-mower cut the leaves to tiny pieces 


the driver took his son for a ride, that's something!


something old, something old, something old... oh, I am really mean. I don't like old people. I couldn't resist the natural composition.


at ikea, this is a candid not street photo, see the difference?
