Very often, I began to look at myself from the outside and be surprised at myself – it's rare to find a photographer in our area who would go to take pictures in bad weather or frost with pleasure. You need to love your job very much...

My first teacher told me that you need to become a fanatical photographer in order to succeed. Fanatic is not a bad meaning I'm not creating an idol for myself here.

He meant that you would to love photography so much that it would be at the top of everything.

Creative people are all a bit crazy, and that's not a bad thing either.

This means that I turn off the mind and allow myself to give in to feelings and emotions, where the soul works...heart.

But still: snowfall is joy, rainstorm is joy, thunderstorm is joy, flood (without victims) is joy, any anomaly or event is joy. Well, definitely crazy!

It's boring when the weather is monotonous, nothing happens.

Thanks to this winter, it doesn't let you get bored!

A week of frosts, a week of snowfalls – everything is how I once described the ideal conditions for diversity.

Well, in the everyday sense, you need to be prepared for any weather.

I stopped being afraid of frosts because I stopped being shy about dressing warmer, even if it wasn't as comfortable and beautiful.

As for frost, I don't think it's worth saying that it needs to be shown in a way that makes it look frosty.

In short and in a simple way: What you associate with frost is what you would to photograph.

For me, it's steam from my mouth, smoke from cars, cold blue shadows, low yellow rays of the sun, people hiding from the cold.
