As we have mentioned in the past, thanks to the increasing number of WoL members joining from various parts of the world, we now have the option not only to compare different lifestyles, but also experience the diverse approaches to documenting life, adherent to the way an individual perceives life around him. For this very reason we were dazzled by the first week of Poteryaev Sergey, whose photographs are a little different with its rendering and color toning. We are more than happy that Sergey has shared his 7 days of life with us and eagerly await the next episode.

George Bednář and his week with a folklore trait not only enriches the project with quality images, but also perfectly highlights the contrast between the styles of life and forms of entertainment on the opposite sides of the Czech Republic. Despite the fact that this country belongs amongst the smaller ones on this planet, the differences between villages and cities are enormous. To this day, young villagers put on folk costumes during all sorts of events and festivals, whereas in the city, the successful live alongside the less fortunate, who for whatever reason ended up on the street and their daily ‘job’ involves open palms waiting for that coin to drop in.

When we click on the name of the member Zuzana Bobovníková, we come to realize that the project has gained another one of its regular contributors. And by further looking at her weeks, we find out that her photographic contributions are of high quality, thanks to which the main ideas behind the project are fulfilled. We enjoy how Zuzana covered her weeks in black and white as of late and it is more than obvious that she is confident in this color combination, playing with it to the fullest extent. We wish her even more energy and verve to be able to further document the wonders of her everyday life.

It often happens that weeks from the authors’ vacations have a slightly more relaxed atmosphere and tend to focus on the beauty of the new surroundings rather than themselves. However, Štěpán Ježek was able to document a week that seamlessly captures the transition from places touched by salt water back to the Czech Republic without any kind of disruptive element. Despite the fact that the author chose not to include any kind of descriptions or tags, individual days are self-explanatory and we can enjoy the ride on the journey to the week of life of the Ježek family, thanks to the wonderfully captured instances and emotions.

Karlovy Vary International Film Festival has celebrated its 45th anniversary this year and the attendance was more than ample. Every year, the city of Karlovy Vary is a host to thousands of visitors who wish to see various genres of film, perhaps meet and even mingle with a celebrity at the bar, but most of all, enjoy themselves to the fullest extent. How does this ‘festival joyride’ look? This has been masterfully documented in the week of David Papanek, whose ordinary life crossed paths with life of a festival for several days; in a week where he captured his interconnection with the IFFKV festival, as he himself calls it, on celluloid film as well as in digital form, giving us the possibility to enjoy this festival rush in dual format.
