Category: Photography

I love photography. For me, it’s like painting, but better. And more accurate. And unlike painting, I can actually participate. I am not a big success or great master by any means. But I enjoy taking pictures. I also enjoy looking at other people work and sometimes sharing it. When I do, this is the category that I use.

Exclusive pictures of the first day of Sofia Georgiades

Sofia Georgiades

A long time ago I’ve promised pictures of Sofia Georgiades. I was the only one who made photographs on her first day in this world, but I had to hold them back for some time. Both Alex and Kate didn’t want me to release them for the 40 days or so. And than they weren’t sure that they wanted to release them at all. But I was persuasive and finally we agreed to make them public. After all this fuzz I realized that I didn’t do any post-processing or color corrections what-so-ever. I’m too bored and lazy to do them now, so you’ll have to look at them as raw as they are.

Standing upright

Standing upright

Once again I will allow myself the amazement about the speed with which Maxim is learning. It seemed that only about a week ago he was trying to make an attempt at standing and it was taking his complete concentration. All his muscles were working and he was breathing heavily after a mere twenty seconds of trying. Today though he looks like he was born standing. He can get himself up from a sitting position in under two seconds. He falls rarely. He turns around while standing. He uses only one hand to hold himself. He can stand on one foot while waving another in kicking things all around him. He can stand for 10-15 minutes at a time. Sometimes he even can sit down by himself. And than get up again. What can I say? I wish I could learn at least at one tenth of his speed.
