Tennis Classic Bratislava 2012

In November 2012, I photographed the 5th annual Tennis Classic exhibition in Bratislava. The line up consisted of Martin Klizan, Dominik Hrbaty, Marian Vajda and the guest of honor – Novak Djokovic. Djokovic and Vajda were enjoying themselves tremendeously and their show was great to watch. Klizan tried too hard to play a regular tennis match. During the Charity auction, Djokovic’s gear was sold for the record-breaking 40 000 Euros.

Carmen Open Air Opera Lednice Moravia

Beautiful Moravian castles and Opera classics – a perfect combination for summer evenings. This year, the opera of choice was “Carmen” by Georges Bizet. The story takes place in Sevilla and portraits the downfall of Don José, who falls in love with Carmen. Don José abandons his military duties for Carmen and leaves his childhood sweetheard Micaela, but loses Carmen’s love to Escamilio, the toreador. In the end, Don José kills Carmen with a knife.
