Our magazine is sold only by mail order, so we know exactly who reads us. We also know that many of our readers have ordered "Quarterly Photography" for the first time, so we have created a promotional package primarily with them in mind. We don't hide the fact that we printed issue 41 a little too much and it's a shame for it to linger in storage. It would be better for it to enjoy...
It was 1992, and Czarnkow, a small town in Greater Poland in the district of Trzcianec and Czarnkow on the Notec River, was celebrating its 800th anniversary. Marek Pozniak, a native of Czarnkow but no longer living there, throws out an idea: let's take 800 photographs of residents for the town's 800th anniversary.

Limestone as a building material has been used for centuries and in various regions of the country. For me, buildings and structures made of limestone look most beautiful in the area of the Krakow-Czestochowa Jurassic Highland, blending into the landscape of limestone rocks, immersed in Jurassic green, contrasting with the colors of autumn, wrapped in the white of winter. The architecture harmonizes with its surroundings and complements the natural landscape. Medieval fortresses,...
The opening of Franciszek Kupczyk's exhibition took place on May 26 at the CKiS Wieża Ciśnień Gallery as part of the 3rd Konin Photography Festival FOCUS NAD WARTA.
