Professional reputation and nudity 2008-05-03 14:35:55 It is extraordinary case, if person of responsibility in big company or somebody engaged in politics, law, education, social activity, anybody of higher positions in society - would demonstrate his nudity on internet and after that stay in the same chair without report of being insane. It would be surprising to find nude portrait [...]
Project-X 2008-05-07 14:36:43 Once I met an old artist in the street, he was in his usual shabby jacket with fringes at the bottom, dragging heavy suitcase with sketches and looking thoughtful.

Modeling 2008-05-13 09:07:54 Three male photographers with Canon cameras assisted me in creation of this small collection.
Sometimes I doubt there is any sense at all to exhibit nude portraits on Internet. But time is going on and pictures - small replicas of reality accumulate on my hard drive and plead to take care of them. They also plead [...] Read more:Modeling
Earthquake-2 2008-05-22 13:57:53 The moral postulate of soviet society was simple: who does not work must not eat, and parasitism was considered to be hardest sin. One could even be in problems with police suspected in parasitic mode of existence.
Living in center of Europe nowadays, I see symbiotic relationships with society to be of no great fault at [...] Read more:Earthquake
Earthquake 2008-05-21 16:24:16 It was 5 o’clock in the morning. I lay in darkness of the room awaked by strange sensation. The night was sticky and still, and full moon accompanied by blinking pearl of lonely star beamed in the open window. A moment later neighbor’s dog gave low howl of misery and supplication, and distant wails of [...] Read more:Earthquake

Miracles 2008-06-02 06:00:46 I had not posted for my blog for a long time. It was emotional zigzag.
Zigzags appear in my life as result of failures or psychological traumas, when shift of perception makes me look at my life from another perspective.
Contemplating my professional future, I see my aspirations are mostly inapplicable in Austria. My prospects would be [...]

Dear Galina,

Anatomie der Liebe 2008-06-09 12:07:23 Dearest Galina,
I don’t know whether you are teasing your readers with your comments about masculine stupidity, mean-spirited men who want to split bills in restaurants or you really mean it.
I take your point that men are obsessed by their penises - it’s part of the male psyche that would be rather difficult to eradicate, [...] Read more:Liebe
Anatomy of love 2008-06-08 18:19:00 In my sophisticated forties, I still feel amazed about gender differences. I would call phenomena masculine stupidity, if I did not know that many men consider women to be equally stupid. Problem arises when I submit to insistent invites for a cup of coffee from bold male explorers, who after spotting nude pictures in my [...]
Red phantoms. Scarlet thread of my craze 2008-06-11 15:45:36 Group of people in Mariahilfer Straße, Vienna
Zhanna
It was sunny spring of 1982. The university alley of apple and peach trees was all pink lace of blossoms. The air was fresh and clear. But I was ascending marble staircase of main building with monument of Great Chief at the top feeling chill in my heart.
I was [...]
Red phantoms 2008-06-12 12:39:06 There were hordes of successful soviet ideologues, which made their career imitating fierce creative activity.
But it was not Zhanna case. She belonged to rare type of uncorrupted believers. She was person of sincerity and encyclopedia knowledge, but her eccentricity made her the scarecrow of the university. She expected from students who were fed up with [...]
Secret weapon 2008-06-14 14:52:38 Saturday. Woman in Muslim headscarf reading book in Thalia bookshop
The Nikon 50mm f/1.4 considered to be a secret weapon for low-light photography, justified my expectations. It is also ultra light, almost weightless, and sharp.
Nude models of 45+ years old 2008-06-16 15:18:43 It was small studio made of one-room flat, and hobby photographer who was so kind to assist me and to whose friend belonged that studio, was unfamiliar with light equipment, so we decided to do what we could using one soft-box and two lanterns with white umbrellas.
Average lifetime of population constantly increases, therefore the women, [...] Read more:models

First exam was English and I passed it very well. Then it came turn of composition. We were to write a few pages on the theme “Communism and future of humankind”.
Instead of using cribs with Lenin quotes as [...]

Jörg Haider 2008-07-16 14:59:46 Today I visited press conference with Joerg Haider and Peter Westenthaler in BZOe quarters. For a long time already, I wished I could photograph Joerg Haider. His speech was rather short though. As I was not satisfied with regular shots I made, which looked rather boring, similar to millions of other press snaps, I prefer [...]
Object of desire 2008-07-13 06:01:59 About 120,000 people in colourful clothes took part in Vienna’s annual Rainbow Parade on Saturday to call for equal rights for gays, lesbians and transvestites. I must add that to be transvestite does not necessarily mean to be homosexual. Some transvestites are fascinated with women’s clothes only, and want to feel themselves, at least temporarily, [...] Read more:Object
