Arthur is an ultra-subjective and uncompromising photographer; he recognizes only the traditional technique, i.e. analog, personal processing of the negative and the print. Each copy is made with his heart and mind, and the goal of his photographic activity is to express the inner self, what is inside him and worthy of being revealed. It doesn't matter where he photographs, what matters is how and that he is the one with total power....

A conversation with Ghada Al Muhanna, a Saudi woman living in Europe, searching through photo archives and sharing her finds on the Internet. A few months ago I found your rich archive of old photos taken mainly in Saudi Arabia. Tell us, how did your adventure in exploring old archives from the Middle East begin? When I moved to... five years ago.
Looking at the photographs Maciej Sztorc sent to us, the first thought that came to my mind was to recall a saying by Andrzej Jerzy Lech: "the most important thing for your camera is what is 15 meters away from it". The meaning, and therefore also the implications of this phrase, are so capacious and extensive that developing it one could write many a dissertation. One...

There is a good chance that I simply have not reached any publications where I would have found a definition of "road photographer" or at least seen the names of photographers and photographers who are attributed to this phenomenon. However, I dare say that such definitions and phrases have already appeared more than once in various records. Also, I am striking a small irony at the very popular thought that....
It is said that a photographer should always have a camera with him, but in reality is this always the case, has it always been so? Is it only the professional photojournalist on his shoulder who inseparably carries a bag in which he carries a tool for capturing images of life? A full-time photographer can often enter where an ordinary Kowalski can no longer, but even in this case....
The environmental disaster on the Oder River continues for another month. The mass death of animals and the destruction of the river's ecosystem prompt questions about both the role of wildlife for humans and the effectiveness of public policies to protect the environment. With the support of the European Climate Foundation, the Sputnik Photos collective is carrying out a project related to the situation on the Oder River. Rafał Milach, Justyna Streichsbier, Michal...

The author of the photographs wrote thus: The primary function of my photographs is to be more in a given place. The secondary is to show others how I see a place with the hope that someone will find such a view interesting, or similar to their own. The decision to publish photos from Ponidzie is not an easy one, as there are probably hundreds of photos taken there every day, many of which...
