A wonderful film filled with beautiful music (by the incredibly talented Michael McGlynn) and extraordinary images of Ireland. #irishmusic #choir

A fairly old post, but its meaning is timeless... probably. At least for those who care about the built environment. #architecture #changes #heritage #builtenvironment www.artursikora.com/blog/maybe-i...

If it weren't photography...it would be music or something related to sound. That's for sure. Sometimes, I wonder if we have a parallel life.

When I visit one of our local music shops, I enjoy rummaging through the second-hand section – vinyl records and CDs. Occasionally, I stumble upon a gem. I've had my eye on this record for quite a while. It's unavailable on vinyl and difficult to obtain on CD, yet here it is. #bluenile #music

I have been photographing on Ilford positive paper practically since the material appeared (with short breaks). I started with portraits. Here is one of them. Kirsten © Artur Sikora / 2014 Sinar F2 Schneider-Kreuznach 150/5.6 Ilford Direct Positive Paper Studio flash lamps at max power (x2)
