Somewhere in Poland ........

 After the 'Last Supper', somewhere in Poland..... there was no wine only vodka. Such a local tradition ..... Scan from a contact print from a 6x9 cm negative, Ercona II camera, Ilford FP4Plus negative.


A country that considers itself Catholic, but is it really so? In depth? It does not seem to still have the influence of the Mediterranean culture, a serene culture, full of sunshine, uplifting wine and olive groves. Here, the world of distillates, secretly and illegally produced in the forests in ancient times, still reigns and dominates. In fear of the Lords and their power. The stunts performed in intoxication and loss of consciousness go back to the pagan past. Somewhere still hiding in the provinces.

Somewhere in Warsaw ......


Somewhere in Warsaw .....  platform at the Central Railway Station - underground railway station in Warsaw serving long-distance services. In 1972 it was decided to build a modern long-distance station. It was completed on 5 December 1975 and soon afterwards took over the operation of most of the long-distance trains in the Warsaw Railway Junction. It was built according to a design by Arseniusz Romanowicz with the cooperation of Piotr Szymaniak, although the design was changed several times during construction, which affected not only the quality of the work but also the functionality of the station.  Construction was carried out at lightning speed in connection with the planned visit of Leonid Brezhnev. Soldiers of the People's Polish Army also worked on the site to speed up the work. Theoretically, no financial constraints were imposed on the designers during construction, only strict time constraints on completion. As a result, many elements were designed and built in a damaging rush, for example the roof and some plumbing, which was repaired. As of 24 July 2019, by decision of the provincial conservator, it is listed in the register of historical monuments. Scan from b&w negative, photo taken in 2021 year.
