We have finally published our website! Layout was done by my collegue, who is sitting just at front of me right now, and almost all photos and renders were done by me Well, it was not so easy, esp taking portraits of our staff, since I had no experience with studio lighting.
Сlothespegs are my personal fav
There is a lot to do, and site is not finished yet, but one day a week ago we decided to finally publish it:

Advanced critique is more than welcome.

I have just returned from a trip. First Paris, then China. In China, visited Beijing, Jingdezhen, Tanshan, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Shendzhen and Hong Kong. I do not find the words that would describe my admiration for China. Especially from the Chinese cuisine
During the trip, I have exposed 50 rolls of film! Quite a lot for me! Not so easy and cheap to develop all 50 rolls at once... Hope that film is ok after many airport check-ups) I expect some updates in my gallery)

By the way! A week later I am leaving for Uzbekistan!

After 7 months of working I decided to take a little break and go to Paris with my Mamiya and Nadya (friend of mine, not a gf)! Yay! I will stay in Paris from 4 to 11 of April and will be glad if someone want to keep me company and show the city. I speak french
I will stay at my grandmother's sister. She is descendant of so called First Wave of russian people escaped from Russia in 1918 (sad history).. Well, I have some relatives in France)

From Paris I will fly to China for business trip. I will visit Beijing, Hong Kong, and some cities in the south part of China. I must visit some local porcelain factories and find the most appropriate of them to produce a souvenir from bone china, designed be me.

After China I will visit Usbekistan!
I can't imagine the amount of rolls of film, which I need for this trip. One hundred may be?))

Can someone help me with choice of a good bag for my equipment? I will take Mamiya RB with two lenses, prism, pinhole, filters, a tripod, dozens of rolls of film and Moleskine.

Wish me luck!

I made laser correction of my eyes! I see every leaf on trees, every sign on road and people eyes. Just imagine how great it is! - Excellent vision after being myope from 1st class of school.

Take care of your eyes, my friends! Now I really understand that the eyes are the most important part of our bodies and health (understand me right I was very scared during operation and I sweared:
No more reading under low light and sleepless nights; no more looking at bright sun and white snow in mountains; no more heavy luggage and I will buy the best available lcd monitor!

I really want to shoot on middle format film, but not sure which camera to choose.
What would you recommend? Mamiya, Bronica, Yashica, Pentacon? Slr or Tlr?

I hope to find a good camera in next two days before my trip to St.Petersburg
Thanks!

A little background story for the non-russians. The story is based on a well-known russian folk tale about a 'bogatir" -- russian knight, who encounters a stone at the crossroads which warns him about his fate if he takes a particular rout. It also plays with an idea of a "lazy russian". And it's about love and simple truth
