Мы все хотим зарабатывать хорошо. Парадокс в том, что в попытках зарабатывать еще лучше, некоторые (не будем говорить, кто) снижают расценки на результаты собственного труда. Логика такого поведения проста: “у меня будет дешевле, чем у проклятых конкурентов, и все клиенты попрут ко мне толпами. Конкуренты разорятся, а я стану монополистом, […]
A couple of weeks ago I almost inadvertently became involved in an online conversation where I jokingly called people who claim to “like the rangefinder experience” liars. The reaction was swift and vigorously aggressive. It really got me thinking. This defensive reaction indicated that either I was wrong, or they […]

Tango is beautiful. Elegant, classy and sensual. Also it is exceptionally difficult to photograph. If someone tells you that it is not, think twice before believing. First, dancers do not wait for you to take a picture. Second, they almost never turn both faces to you at the same time, […]
Carl Zeiss ZM lenses is an amazing phenomenon is photography: despite their excellent quality and ergonomics, most Leica M shooters do not even know about them. The main reason for their relatively low popularity, besides snobbish attitude of “those with the best glass in the world”, is that at any […]
Published: Detroit Free Press March 6th 2012 Yesterday I had, what our producer described, “a quick shoot”. This is a euphemism for a low-budget assignment. It also means that bringing studio lighting to a client would be an overkill. Well… Actually, in 2009 it would not be an overkill, because […]
