Hometown / Vacation pictures Poland

guy's been dead for yonks, no?

yeah...for about 80 years. His work was so bizzar for his time. I didn't know there was anything in Sopot though.

Thanks Fisz.....very cool.....some of it makes me dizzy though, while I am looking at it...:)

yeah... hes one of my fave architects... his stuff in BCN blows my mind and the ice cream building in MAD is good enough to eat... but sopot is not his... built in the last ten yrs...

Hi, FISZ

Certainly, there are very nice towns to see in Poland.
I hope to return soon and visit a few towns, but the goal of this journey was: "following the way of our mother". And almost all the pictures are made by myself.

So long

Just wanted to add some more pics

Great pictures there!!

Thank you sunflower.

Oh my goodness, I really must book that flight back to Poland very soon! What camera / film did you use for those shots just above there Fisz?

Just a Kodak DX7630 :)

I have many more in this thread and some in myspace:myspace.com/xdescendx

Enjoy :)

Some Pics of Poland

I found these online...

earth-photography.com/Countries/Poland/Poland_Cracow_View.html





They are just three of dozens of amazing pictures I have looked at tonight...

They end up a bit randomly placed.
If you wanted, say, a picture of £ódź, for example, there are already 6 pages to carefully search through.
As there are forums within the PF site, could photos be given their own (sub-)forum?
That would allow threads to carry slightly more specific titles.
I do realise that it would be quite small as there are not that many pictures.
However, it might encourage more people to post photographs of Poland.

I also agree...I have hundreds and hundreds of pics from all over PL.

The village of Niebieszczany....where my great-grandfather was born and many relatives still live. It is small but very beautiful.

got some i actually took of inside Auschwicz and in around Krakow and jewish quarter and in Zakopane somewhere have the St Marys Church one in your little collection posted PD that i took on a angle :D

St Marys Church is the bottom picture by way in your posting :)

So post them :) I'll share mine as well.

is it a converted school?

Grodków - derelict Protestant church
Grodków - St. Michael Archangel's church


No, it's a solid job by a construction professional. Year (probably) 1906-1908.

Gross-Rosen concentration camp gate.
The Gross-Rosen quarry.

Beautiful Country you all have there. Hope to visit one day.

My photos from Auschwitz can be found here:

There are some great picture here, and I have my share from my first visit to Poland myself (which I shall get around to posting - soon) - but I found the thing that sticks in my memory the most is the people - I thought english people can be friendly, but I now see that we only scratch the surface when it comes to welcoming people.

I have to agree with you there. I never felt so welcome in a place as I did while in Poland. I was related to most of the people I'd met but hadn't really had any communication with the majority of them before my trip....yet they welcomed me with open arms and in some ways treated me better then people that I've known back home in the states for years! *lol*

Picture taken in my hometown..

Nice!

Hey Krysia. Seems every time I see you, you have anew face! ;) Imagine if we could do that in real life! ;)

Really? I haven't noticed..

Great pics. Does anyone know of any pics of the zachopomorskie (spelling?) area?

Its zachodniopomorskie....but i know what you mean....I live in this area , and have lots of oics....What do you want , forests , lakes or towns....Its a very pretty area , i live in Drawsko national park....

lets see some lakes:)

No, not lakes, I want forests with photo's of deer and mushrooms!
