Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare...

Janmashtami is the joyful celebration of Lord Krishna's birth. Major celebrations of Krishna Janmashtami takes place at midnight as Krishna is said to have made his divine appearance in that hour. These photos are from the ceremony held in a small temple called The understanding temple, located in the village of Chosica, Lima Peru  in 2004.

Flowers, a hard task.

A while ago I was at home bored, it was Sunday afternoon, nothing to do at all. So in my boredom I got an idea, I decided to take some photos of flowers, not my specialty. It was hard, a lot of ugly and bad shoots were taken but from all I got these shoots.

I should keep photographing flowers, dont you think?

Lighting the sky

Some months ago, here in Brno was held the anual fireworks festival  Ignis Brunensis but for bad luck I could  not go to main shows that usually held at the lake Prehrada where is kind of "easy"  take nice photos. But to be honest I am not good with the fireworks, this is my third time (the two first were in Peru at some traditional religious celebration) trying to get something really nice but no success.

From those days I like these two photographs they are like the eruption of some volcan or some galactic explosion.

I belive.

Last sunday we had the visit of the Pope Benedict XVI, he visited the city of Prague and Brno, around 100 000 people came to see him, people from Poland, Austria, Germany etc.
So while I was looking into my archive I found some that I would like to share.


This is photo was taken in bar in Mazatlan. Strange place for such a image.


An image of Jesuschrist on top of some kind of alter in the street du to the celebration of the Virgin of Guadalupe in Manzanilo, Mexico.


Procession of the Lord of Gualamita (Señor de Gualamita) in the town of Lamud, Amazonas, Peru.


A nice and expressive  sculpture of Jesus Christ in a park close to my home.

Thanks God for all what I have.

Sad cloudy days

The autumn has started in part of the planet, Czech Republic, and the cloudy sad days have come. For the people who like the summer as me, this season is a challenge, the nice natural bright light of the sun has gone. Now we have a plain gray sky. But this season for me is the best to take urban landscapes, I like it because is easier to walk around the city and don't feel hot and sweetie, specially if you walk with your tripod and a bag with you camera and a set of lenses.

Cloudy days are specials if you want to transmit some loneliness and melancholy.

Here are some:

I know those are not from Czech Republic, there is a sea in those. : ) The first one is from Belize and the second one from Martinique, so come back soon, I will post some from the city of Brno in the next days.

Bartosz Liszkowski

Some time ago I received a positive critic about my art photographs from travel polish photographer Bartosz Liszkowski so is time to give back the favor now that I see a "relationship" between some of his clouds images and my Sky photos.

His strongest images are the sea landscapes, good composition, strongs colors and simplicity over all. My favorites photos are one from Greece and one from a cloudy sky. I would like just to see less galeries and more images in each.

Enjoy his photos and buy some too. : )
