TITLE: Jorcajts
JORCAJT began my adventure with a journey into Jewish culture. It was 2015 and I continue on this path to this day. It was then that I came to Lelów, which is more famous in the world than in Poland. It is a small village in the Jura. This is the grave of Tzaddik Dawid Biderman Lelower, revered by many Hasidim. Yortziat is the anniversary of death in the Jewish tradition, celebrated solemnly in accordance with the Jewish calendar. Every year on his birthday, Hasidim from all Hasidic communities in the world make pilgrimages to his grave. Hasidim from all over the world say Kaddish, write their prayers on pieces of paper, place stones on matzevot and light two-wick candles. My journey took me further to Radomsko, Tykocin and Leżajsk, and this is definitely not the end.

Grzesiek Maciąg - Born in 82. Photography enthusiast. Vice President of the Jurassic Photo Team Association. He looks at life through the staff. He started his photographic adventure in primary school by building a darkroom. He worked and studied at "Zenit". The passion for photography has returned with the first SONY compact and to this day in this system, although it uses other brands "not every camera is for everything". Style is a strong contrast of color, a male look on the subject. He feels best in portraiture, still life, reportage and macro photography. Macro photography is a moment of rest (although it gets up at 5 am). He always wanted to look insects in the eye. Now he is trying to add something more to the frame as well as his eyes. The most interesting specimen is Piórolotek Śnieżynka. A passionate athlete for many years - now understanding the needs of photographed people. Once he wanted to be at the European or World Championships, I photograph these champions today.
