I’m Piotr, an amateur photographer and a seafarer. I was born in Poland and now live in Daejeon, South Korea. My work as a Chief Officer takes me to sea for long stretches, and moving between ports, coastlines and changing weather has taught me to notice what is around me.
A ship is a small world with a rhythm of its own. Watches, early mornings, long horizons and the way light changes over open water all shape how I see. When I come ashore, I carry that habit of looking with me.
Photography is how I hold on to it. I am drawn to the small things of daily life: people going about their day, a quiet corner of a street, a moment that would be gone a second later. Street photography teaches patience, and I enjoy waiting for a scene to come together.
I also love landscapes and nature: mountains meeting the sea, heavy skies, the soft light at the edge of the day. A life at sea and a home far from where I was born give me many different places to look at.
I’m not a professional. I take pictures for the pleasure of looking closely and of sharing what I find. This page is a small selection of that work, and I will keep adding to it. Thank you for visiting, and if a photograph speaks to you, I’d be glad to hear from you on the Contact page.
