The journey of colors

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Poland | Thursday, August 19, 2010 | 5 photos

Hello! My name is Paul, I was born in Ukraine, Dnipropetrovsk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dnipropetrovsk)
Last year I’ve finished the Ukrainian academy of customs. My speciality is a lawyer. But not long ago I realized that I want to be a photographer, not a lawyer! All this papers and laws...it is not what I want, now I realize it with great responsibility - it is my way. The way to produce and create something NEW, unseen and unexpectable. I wish to see the world, to learn something new from people and give them back good things. Explore and show the beauty of the world to others is now my task for life.

In November - December 2009 I’ve been to Poland as the participant of AIESEC program "Enter your future". 60 persons from all over the world were divided in groups. 3 persons in one group. The main idea of the program is to speak to 13-16 years old school students about Human Rights and Globalization. It was my first experience of sharing my knowledge and ideas with people from other countries. And it was successful!!! I have visited many places in Poland, spoke to many outstanding persons, seen so many beautiful places that my camera just can’t show you it all!!!
It was a hard decision to choose only 5 photos. Too much places, too much of emotions. Too hard to describe it all. Maybe black&white Auschwitz with tears of 4-years old Britisher or colors and purely clean air of Tatra Mountains?
I decided. I want to show you my vision of city of Krakow. I choose 5 photos of Krakow because its architecture quite similar to Lvov (Ukrainian city) architecture. I choose Krakow because its habitants are so differ from Lvov habitants. I choose Krakow because you can feel something in its air, something eternal and monolithic. I choose colors. Have a look.
