AUTHOR
I was born in the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands and I spent my childhood in a romantic manner partly at the Chotěboř Airfield, because both my parents were sport pilots, and partly at a lonely remote little hut with no electricity and tap water. This was the moment when the cards of my life were dealt. I began to trample the mountains and fly over them on a rogal. Such a feeling of freedom and adventure, from time to time even a curious predator joined me, cannot be described, one simply has to live and experience it. I started to dedicate my time to amateur cinema. My films from flying and mountain hikes acquired certain awards and prizes. Among them I appreciate much the Barrandov Studios Award and two nominations at the prestigeous International Mountaneering Film Festival. Over some time, photography won in the end. Several years I dedicated almost exclusively to classic air photography, which also used to be a great adventure. My air photographs resulted in five books published and one of them was awarded the grand prize at 21. Autumn Book Fair in 2011. My last book JIŽNÍ MORAVA KRÁSNÁ známá, neznámá came out this year and is a combination of aerial and ground photography.
