Портрет снятый на дуршлаг (читайте описание)

Да, именно на дуршлаг! Фотографировал в подвале дома, где мы скрывались от обстрелов! Июнь 2025 года. Покровск (Красноармейск) Донецкой области. Одно из самых острых направлений на Донбассе. Заинтересовал?!) Ну тогда вот моя история! Идея фотосессии родилась спонтанно. Я и ещё несколько человек прятались в подвалах. Это южная сторона города, наиболее обстреливаемая часть Красноармейска. На тот момент мы уже 7 месяцев прятались по подвалам. Жил я там с совершенно незнакомыми людьми, но нас «сдружила» война. И вот как-то один из моих товарищей по несчастью, увидев на банке с консервой, изображение моряка, с бородой и трубкой, говорит: -Жека! А слабо и мне такой портрет сделать?! Сказано это было с максимальным ехидством. Я когда раньше рассказывал про свои съёмки в студии, участия в конкурсах, победы и достижения, он (дядя Коля, так я к нему обращался), ёрничал и язвил с максимальным недоверием. Типа -Ну да, ну да! Расскажи. Все вы на словах профессиональные фотографы! И я уже тогда думал, как бы тебе доказать… И вот однажды, в минуты затишья, на развалинах соседского дома, мне на глаза попадается большой (40-45 см. в диаметре) дуршлаг. И сразу же в голове вспомнились слова известного Питерского фотографа Игоря Сахарова: -Ну что вы все ноете, что нет оборудования! Вот возьму когда-то цинковое ведро и одну вспышку и сделаю портрет! Главное понимать и управлять светом! А я сразу решил, что ведь этот дуршлаг, практически готовая портретная тарелка. Сделал отверстие для вспышки (а у меня от всей моей студии, помимо фотоаппарата с объективами в сумке, оказались две старенькие но рабочие вспышки Yongnuo, все остальное сгорело). Обклеил я дуршлаг скотчем, закрасил нитроэмалью серебрянки. Из крышки пластикового ведра сделал отражатель. И обтянул полиэтиленовым пакетом, что-то типа рассеиватель получилось. Вспышку крепил медицинским жгутом. Штативом для моего журавля послужила телескопическая швабра (чтоб можно было регулировать высоту). А перекладиной был фр

When the sea stops breathing

It was a cloudy and quiet morning on Alcobaça Beach, along the southern coast of Bahia, Brazil. The air was mild, and a soft, dramatic light began to rise on the horizon. As I walked along the shore at dawn, a distant movement caught my eye, a restless group of black vultures (Coragyps atratus) gathered on the wet sand. Approaching slowly, I realized they were feeding on the remains of a large sea turtle washed ashore. These scavenging raptors, often neglected and unfairly judged, play an essential role in maintaining ecological balance. Feeding on carcasses of dead animals, they act as nature’s cleanup crew.

​A Silent Move

In this shot, I wasn’t just photographing a chess hall I was searching for that silent move happening inside the player\'s mind I was drawn to the geometry of the repeating tables and the surrounding void so I decided to isolate all the noise in black and white letting the light alone narrate the story ​To me this scene is my private harbor where focus transforms into an artistic solitude and the player becomes the sole hero in a space filled with possibilities It is a heavy moment of anticipation documented exactly as I felt it quiet sharp, and organized to remain a visual witness to the silent struggle of the mind against the vast profound void in all its deep and beautiful details

A deal with God

The heart of Hell is not fire, but ice. Cold as hatred, dehumanization and relational death. The body is enveloped by the cold waters of the Cocytus and at that moment all desire is extinguished and man can only contemplate his failure. Cryogenized in this immense river, which separates the world of the living from that of the dead, the human being becomes stone, soulless, insignificant, mute and inert. He lets himself be transported aimlessly by the great Luciferian sacrificial machine and the \\\\\\\'mperador of the painful kingdom, mocking, makes fun of the imperfect creation of the Father, who observes the macabre infernal dance choreographed by his last Son from above. He is aware of how great the suffering of mortals is, as it is he himself who inflicts it in the same way as the Fallen Angel. The truth is that the Almighty feels envy for the pleasure that the Morning Star feels in giving pain. With lies he helps man to ascend to Him. His intent is not to save him, but his only reason for being is to be able to continue the eternal struggle with his beloved Genius of Evil.

Back to you

Back to you is a photographic project with a cinematic style oriented towards the science fiction genre. Through a succession of images in sequence we want to visually tell the story of our main character who, for some reason, finds himself catapulted to Earth, deserted, inhospitable and hostile. He has a very specific purpose, that is to find a source of lost energy, contained in a casket that centuries earlier had been sent to Earth so that the inhabitants could benefit and use it not only as a source of energy, in fact, but as a source of aggregation and kindness towards others. Unfortunately, humans have not been able to use this energy given to them by another distant world. Our protagonist will therefore necessarily have to find her to go home and save his world. At first he finds himself disoriented, desperate and above all he feels alone. Luckily he manages to find the chest, put on the energy source and finally return home to save his people and who he truly loves.

The Silence That Falls

In the depths of stone, where light rarely lingers, something begins to speak without sound. A fragile stream descends from the unseen, carving its way through darkness, carrying time in every drop. The walls hold their breath, shaped by forces too slow to notice, yet too powerful to resist. Here, nothing rushes — and yet everything is in motion. The longer you stay, the quieter you become, until you realize: it is not the water that is falling, but time itself.

Between Breath and Stone

Light slips quietly through the narrow opening, tracing soft lines across the ancient walls as if searching for something it once knew. The stone, shaped by countless unseen moments, bends and flows like fabric caught in a silent current. Nothing here is still, yet nothing moves — a fragile balance between presence and absence. In this space, time does not pass; it lingers, suspended between breath and stone.

Bull riding is the most dangerous sport in rodeo. During the ride, cowboys must follow the rules while facing a test of nerves with a tough bull. The rider depends on bullfighters to distract the bull until he is safely out of its range. On this moment, a cowboy is trying to keep his balance so as not to be thrown off the bull.

Axis of Departure

A solitary skyscraper rises between parallel station platforms, framed by sweeping lines that converge toward the horizon.

Architecture and infrastructure align to form a silent axis, suggesting movement without motion.

Resilience and Strength

The savanna stretched toward the horizon, a sea of tawny, wind-brushed grass beneath a sky that roiled with the heavy, bruised promise of rain. It was the golden hour, that fleeting window when the sun, though obscured by dramatic, towering cumulus clouds, bathed the landscape in a monochromatic glow of silver and charcoal. The air was thick with the scent of dry earth and the sharp, ozone-tinged breath of an approaching storm. Four silhouettes emerged from the tall stalks: the matriarchal heart of the herd. They moved with the silent, heavy grace of tectonic plates shifting.

Dust hung in the air like a veil of spun gold, softening the edges of the vast, amber-grassed plains as the afternoon sun began its slow descent. The savanna was a quiet symphony of heat and patience. Dominating the foreground was Matriarch, her weathered hide a topographical map of a long life lived under the relentless African sky. Her skin was darkened with the remnants of a mud bath, dried into a protective armor of gray against the sun and the biting insects.
