When it's winter, it's time to head to the studio! I recently had the unmissable opportunity to participate in a glamour and boudoir photography shoot with the stunning professional model, Klaudia, at the busy Ndustrial Studio in Budapest. The intimate setting, surrounded by a close-knit group of peers, provided the perfect environment to let my creativity flourish.

The art of photography often sees the merging of past and present technologies, creating a bridge between the vintage charm of yesteryears and the cutting-edge precision of modern optics. This weekend, I delved into such a fusion by testing the contemporary TTArtisan 100/2.8 lens against the over 65 years old, legendary Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 100mm f/2.8. My quest was not merely to evaluate the performance of the new lens by my own interest but to see if it could match or surpass the classic Trioplan, which graces my personal collection.

Greetings to all aspiring wildlife photographers keen on stepping into the realm of red deer (Cervus elaphus) photography. In this blog post, we'll go over the meticulous steps and considerations necessary to capture the grandeur of these creatures, particularly in Central Europe where their skittish nature due to hunting adds to the challenge.

Coming back from family vacation from Mallorca where I used my 2 months old Sony A7IV (ILCE-7M4) and also tested the effect of using silent or mechanical shutter on the photos' dynamic range I wondered how much I used the mechanical shutter (called as 'shutter count') of my camera. I knew I had less than 2000 clicks (mainly with silent shutter) before left, and returned with cca. 3000 photos (mostly taken with mechanical shutter), so my total clicks should not exceed 5000.

It was high time to collect and show my award winning photos in a dedicated gallery. Based on my so far shared images one might consider I am a travel, nature and landscape photographer (only), however, this is not the case. No doubt, the above three ones are my favorite genres, but, also created plenty of creative, fine art, nude and portrait photos, as well, and plenty of them were presented at photocontest exhibitions and/or received awards.
