Photoalbum of Stanislav

To see a photograph in its actual (larger) size, click/tap it, and it will be opened in a lightbox or a separate tab.

Here you can find some photographs of me in different periods of life. It is not easy to distinguish between photos with me alone and those with my family and friends. However, here I am presented, though in my life I am rather a photographer than a photo object.
