- • photo story A summer trip to Windermere, Lake District

- • photo story Richmond Park Photowalk
Richmond Park is one of my favourite places in London. And it's funny when you think about it because when you're there, you feel like you're actually far away from the big city.

At the beginning of June (the long weekend of Queen's Platinum Jubilee), I left London for a 4-day hiking excursion at Brecon Beacons Mountains in Wales. I planned to hike parts of The Beacons Way - a long-distance walking path running the length of the Brecon Beacons National Park. I didn't have enough time to cover the entire distance, but it was still an exciting journey.

I started last month with a review of my photos from the previous year's Iceland trip, and I've shared some bits from the first days of the travel highlighting the famous Golden Circle route. But Iceland is so much more. Our journey was planned often on the go, driven by the exciting spots along the Ring Road and the booked accommodation.

I wrote and published earlier two photo stories from my trip to Iceland in 2021. Still, they were only about Fagradalsfjall volcano, and I have so much more to share from that travel.

- • photo story Return to the Fagradalsfjall volcano
If you've read my previous story about the Fagradalsfjall volcano you know that I didn't have much luck witnessing actual eruption. But the hike was a great experience anyway, so two weeks later, I've returned to the same place, took a slightly different path and went on planning to see the eruption.
- • photo story Fagradalsfjall volcano and the lava fields of Geldingadalir
The Fagradalsfjall volcano was one of the key points of my trip to Iceland. I've visited the site twice, in the beginning, and towards the end of my journey. While I almost didn't see the eruption, I enjoyed the surreal landscape quite a lot. This photo story is a record of the hike.

- • photo story Growing plants underground in London
Who would have thought about the idea of growing plans deep underground? Well, maybe in some post-apocalyptic movie, but in real life, that doesn't seem straightforward, right?
- • photo story Hammersmith Bridge sunrise and photowalk
I was dying to see some good weather, but in February this year was quite miserable. There was a lot of rain and cloudy mornings, so I never had a good chance to go out for some photography challenges.

Early Sunday last week I went for a long run as one of the final training runs before the upcoming marathon. I ran through the Richmond Park and the sunrise I've witnessed left me stunned. It was one of the most beautiful scenes I've ever seen.
- • photo story Hiking on Tenerife: Cruz del Carmen in Anaga Mountains
Anaga Mountains found on the northeastern side of Tenerife offer an entirely different environment than the rest of the island. Green, humid forest, the variety of plants and trees makes them an excellent area for hiking and exploration. One of my last days on Tenerife I went for a long hike starting from a small village Cruz del Carmen.
- • photo story Hiking on Tenerife: Arona to Roque del Conde to Roque de los Brezos and back
In the area of Arona, there are many distinct mountains. They each reach up to 1000 meters high, but their height makes a big impression because you can observe them almost from the sea level. So one afternoon I've decided to go for a hike to a nearby mountain with quite interesting, flat top.
- • photo story Photographing the 2018 London Marathon
The time went by so fast, and I didn't realize it was almost a year since the last event. This year the Virgin Money London Marathon was set on 22 April 2018. I wasn't watching the date, so almost by accident, I found out that it will happen on the last Sunday. Of course, I couldn't miss it.

The 2017 London Marathon was one of my first attempt to street & event photography in London. I didn't set many expectations about the outcome as I haven't done much of this kind of shoots in the past. So instead, I've turned my mindset towards exploration and fun.
- • photo story Catching the light
It was 8 PM, the day before when I’ve got the crazy idea of going for a trip to photograph the sunrise from the top of Babia Góra. I would later see, that clouds almost entirely covered the peak and no sun for me, but it was one of best hikes I've ever had.
- • running log First day of the spring
I’m not exactly sure whether it was last day of winter or the first day of spring. But as usual, we’ve set for a run. Initially, we’ve actually planned to go somewhere else, but because of some unforeseen event day before, we’ve settled for a shorter route in Lasek Wolski.

- • photo story 2014 Beskidy Ultra Trail report
Niestety nie wystartowałem w tegorocznej edycji Beskidy Ultra Trail. I choć złożyło się na to kilka powodów, ostatecznie jestem z tego mimo wszystko zadowolony. Udało mi się za to pojawić z aparatem na trasie wyścigu i zrobić kilka zdjęć uczestnikom. Okazało się to samo w sobie organizacyjnym wyzwaniem.
- • photo story Na Babią, po zachód słońca!
W ostatni weekend, sobotę, 7. czerwca postanowiłem się wybrać na Babią Górę fotografować zachód słońca. Dawno temu miałem okazję być tam ze znajomymi na wschodzie, ale nie udało mi się jeszcze zobaczyć schyłku dnia.
- • photo story Off we go, czyli Śnieżka 2014
W połowie maja miałem okazję spędzić kilka dni we Wrocławiu. N. coachowała na Rails Girls Wrocław, a ja wykorzystałem wolną sobotę, żeby wybrać się w Karkonosze. Jeszcze nigdy wcześniej nie byłem w tamtych okolicach, może poza zimowym pobytem w Pecu pod Śnieżką, prawie 6 lat temu.
