Česká verse

The snaps, you are looking at, are purely amateur work. They arose as a subsidiary product of my hiking tours in the country. I have never studied any theory of photography. I am simply walking (climbing, caving) and if there is anything nice, I pull the trigger and the snap is ready. When it appealed to me, it can appeal to you, I think. If not, you can look out for something better :-)

You can watch the photos in 2 sizes:
larger size: typically 960 x 640 dots; 200 - 400 kB
smaller size: typically 640 x 420 dots; 100 - 200 kB
After clicking on preview you get the larger format of the snap with its title (unfortunately, the comments to individual photos are still in the Czech version only). By clicking on the photo you get the smaller format. Czech, Slovak and Bulgarian local names are quoted or typed in italics in the titles and translated into English, if possible.

The photos of nature are divided into groups according to the place of their origin, and moreover thematically. The figures presented by each group give the number of photos in the group (totally / new of them). The whole gallery includes 34101 photos.

I recommend the screen resolution 1280*1024 dots.

This gallery is in permanent development. It will never be completed. Many of its features should be improved, but there are too many other jobs. :-(

As "new" are considered the photos added after Jul 1, 2025.


Your comments to the gallery are welcomed via e-mail (janmoravec[at]volny.cz) or in the guest-book.
