Kdo je autorem / Who is the author

Accidentaly two pictures come to my hands - and brought some thougths within.
The first one (quite abstract, isn't it?) comes from a webcamera in Helsinki South Harbour. I saved the picture in the evening. Obviously it was quite rainy... (btw: I have a "collection" of some 80 pics from this camera - anyone interested :-)?)
The second picture was taken during my holiday in the mountains - I think I like this most of those I took there.
Now there is a suggestion: what if the real authors of these pictures is the guy who installed the webcamera in Helsinki and the other one who erected the snow something (how is it called in English? the thing producing snow?) in the very place?

Dostaly se mi do rukou dva obrazky.
Prvni je z webkamery umistene v helsinskem jiznim pristavu. Ulozeno vecer, evidentne za destiveho pocasi (mimochodem: mam sbirku uz asi 80 obrazku z tehle webkamery).
Druhy obrazek pochazi z me horske dovolene. Libi se mi asi nejvice ze vsech obrazku, ktere jsem tam poridili.
A tak se mi do hlavy vkrada otazka: kdo jsou vlastne autori techto obrazku? Neni to ten clovicek, co na sloupu instaloval webkameru a ten, co na spravne miste umistil snezne delo?

Obrazky z hor III / Pics from mountains III

Here's probably the last set of pictures from my holiday.
Pravdepodobne posledni sada fotografii z volna na horach.


This is a bell on the top of Kronplatz. Unfortunately I didn't force myself to check what was written on the watching tower to find out what was the idea "behind" erecting the tower and putting the bell there. Maybe it was not written in English (but I could read it in German...), or it was just the end of the day so I was too tired (read: lazy) to read it. Or I was too busy with thinking of how did they transport the bell there. Nevertheless - I like the picture.
Zvon na vrchu Kronplatzu. Nejak jsem se nedonutil k precteni napisu na rozhledne, abych se dozvedel, proc presne tam ten zvon visel. Mozna napis nebyl napsan anglicky (ale pak bych ho moch zkusit rozlousknout v nemcine) a nebo to proste bylo tim, ze bylo uz pozdni odpoledne a mel jsem toho vseho proste plne zuby (zkratka ovladla me lenost). A nebo jsem misto cteni napisu venoval prili mnoho myslenek uvazovani o tom, jak byl zvon dostan na vrch kopce. At tak ci onak: fotka se mi libi.

Famous Bombardino. It seems to me that it is inevitably connected with Dolimites. Or is it just a myth? Hard to say. The mixture of Advocaat (hot), brandy or whisky and whipped cream is fine. But for me nothing really special. On the other hand the story around it became so strong in my mind that I will have it again next time when I get there.It is called successful marketing. And don't forget that (as the old wisdom maintains) there is no successful marketing without at least good product.
Slavne Bombardino. Jakoby by bylo nejak nevyhnutelne spojeno s Dolomity. A nebo je to jen domnenka ci mytus? Kdo vi. Smes horkeho vajecneho konaku, brandy nebo whisky a slehacka na vrchu vubec neni spatna. Ale na druhou stranu nic zasadne zvlastniho. Na stranu treti cela povest Bombardina nabyla v me mysli prilis velkych rozmeru na to, abych si ho priste nedal. Rika se tomu uspesny marketing. K tomu je treba mit na pameti, ze dle stale pravdy lze delat dlouhodobe uspesnou reklamu jednomu produktu jen tehdy, jedna-li se o dobry produkt.



Just a picture I like. Something like pictures of Vladimir Birgus. Pieces of reality which can be documented by a camera. But don't forget: first you must spot them.
Proste fotka, ktera se mi libi. Cosi ve stylu fotografii Vladimira Birguse. Kousky skutecnosti, ktere mohou byt zdokumentovany fotoaparatem. Ale nezapominejme: nejdrive museji byt spatreny.
Ski, airplanes, snow, stick, mountains, clouds. Sort of Nirvana. (Hu. I just found out that I already published this picture. But without the previous wise words.)
Lyze, letadla, snih, hory, mraky. Neco jako nirvana.

Even for me it was quite difficult to recognize what was on the picture.

Sam jsem mel problemy s poznanim, co je vlastne na obrazku.
