I Went To The Slovakian Tatras With My Girlfriend And Her Family, And What I Saw Took My Breath Away (34 Pics)

I'm Michał Gałczyński from Poland and I have been a photographer for over 10 years. My focus is action sports and travel photography - but I also like product photography - especially automotive.

I've been doing photography since my teenage years. I was always into artsy stuff like graffiti, music, drawing, etc. but my first GF influenced me to fall in love with photography.

As I can remember, this was my first trip to Vysokie Tatry. I visited that region on a Polish site when I was a kid too, but only for ski camps. I had never been to higher parts of it till now. My first impressions were breathtaking - we arrived at our hotel just before the sunset. The atmosphere was stunning!

Another few days were quite intense. The weather was changing quickly so we experienced heavy rain, sun, and strong wind. But the overall experience was great!

Photography is a part of my life. It's natural to me like drinking coffee in the morning. Even if I don't take photos I see the world through photography frames. I think about light, I see contrasts and patterns. If I work a lot for clients, I just don't take photos in my private time. If I have free time for too long, I grab a camera and make my own projects. It's a natural sinusoid, I guess. In the future, I'm also planning to do more travel photography, to visit new places and meet new people.

I like that opportunity to look at places with a fresh eye and frame them through my sensitivity. So feel free to write to me if you need some photos.

Nowadays I want to move slowly from action sports photography to automotive shots. I love beautiful cars and endless ways to interact with them as a photographer. I will take my camera with me on my trips - so I'll still make travel photography on my own. I'm also moving with my content from Instagram to Vero - check out this platform!

Recently I went to the semi-finals of the best contest for action sports photographers - Red Bull Illume! I also went for the first time as a photographer to Crankworx Innsbruck - a dream event for guys fixated on gravity MTB sports!

Lastly, I would just like to add, stay safe, remember to clean your hands, and love your friends!
