The Photographs
All photographs in our book and those which appear on this website were taken over a period of 14 years using various cameras.
Initially we used a Minolta reflex camera, later a Fuji GA645Zi Professional, in 6 x 4.5 format. For most of the photographs taken in Poland, Majorca and Scotland Ektachrome films were used.
In the middle of the last decade the revolutionary digital cameras had appeared. Early in 2009 we started to work with a Nikon D90 which has given us excellent results regarding photographs taken in Paris, Nohant, Vienna, Bohemia and Saxony.
All the photographs are watermarked and low resolution but if you wish to purchase any of them, we can arrange to send you a high resolution copy for a fee. Please let us know by posting a message via contact form.
The photographs shown on our website are just a selection of over 2000 pictures regarding Chopin sites. We should be happy to meet your interest.
