Shipbreakers of Chittagong, an image I took in 2010 in Bangladesh. Visiting this place and talking to the workers about their experience working in the yard, taking old ships apart was powerful experience. This image won the National Geographic Contest in 2010. Till today I consider it the strongest image I have ever taken. I’m sharing it today to enter it in the #natgeo100contest organized by National Geographic on the occasion of reaching 100 million followers with their @natgeo account. I want to thank National Geographic for recognizing this image back then, it was an encouraging start to my career. #natgeo #asenbrennerova

I love photographing dancers and often look for opportunities to do so wherever I am. Flamenco was the latest opportunity. Trying to capture the atmosphere and intense passion and precision these artists express on stage was a challenge. Photographed in Barcelona last summer I thoroughly enjoyed the mastery of all these dancers and musicians while trying to do visual justice to their intense performances. Published in January issue of Xantypa magazine I wrote an article to accompany the photos to share a bit more detail about flamenco. Also photos were on display at Prague’s City Hall as part of Czech Press Photo exhibit. #flamenco #dance #barcelona #spain #europe #canon5dmarkiii #pickofthday #visualstorytelling #canon #tearsheet #xantypa #magazine #asenbrennerova #czechphotographer

Dancer Marina Gonzáles during flamenco performance at Palau Dalmases in Barcelona. Marina started dancing flamenco at the age of 4. Professionally, she dances since she was 18. It is common that the best flamenco dancers start dancing at very early age, José Octaviano Miñano Muñoz, owner of Palau Dalmases club, explains. #flamenco #dance #barcelona #spain #europe #passion #woman #red #visualstorytelling #pickofthday #canon #canon5dmarkiii

In the next few days I’ll share images of flamenco. I love photographing dancers and often look for opportunities to do so wherever I am. Flamenco was the latest opportunity I had. Trying to capture the atmosphere and intense passion and precision these artists express on stage was a challenge.

Published in January issue of Xantypa magazine I wrote an article to accompany the photos to share a bit more detail about flamenco.

Photographers Maggie Steber (right) and Lynn Johnson discuss their collaboration on the ‘Story of a Face’ published in 2018 in National Geographic magazine. After their talk they invited Katie Stubblefield, the woman who at age 21 undergone face transplant surgery, to the stage. Accompanied by her parents, she shared a bit about her journey herself. I find this story among the most powerful I have came across in the National Geographic magazine so far. If you haven’t already check it out. It is truly incredible what is possible in our world today - beside the breathtaking science also the human mind and its ability to completely transform itself into a new place after a tragedy.

This image concludes my postings for this year. In 2018 I shared photo memories from the Czech Republic, my home country, inviting you for a visit to see my family and friends in my hometown. I hope you enjoyed the Czech journey. In 2019 I’ll be taking you on a very different kind of trip. Stay tuned and Happy New Year 2019! #2018 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #winter #road #endofayear #home #snow #everydayeasterneurope #instagood #photooftheday #picoftheday #asenbrennerova

For the first time they see the tree and the gifts he brought for them. #2017 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #everydayeasterneurope #instagood #photooftheday #christmas #vanoce #jezisek #christmastree #kids #picoftheday #asenbrennerova

In the Czech Republic it is a tradition to decorated the Christmas tree on the 24th when we celebrate Christmas. These days, people decorate their Christmas trees earlier to enjoy it longer. #2017 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #everydayeasterneurope #instagood #photooftheday #picoftheday #christmastree #christmas #vanoce #gifts #decoration #asenbrennerova

Wintertime already but doesn’t look or feel like it quite yet.. Afternoon walk with my mom and our dog Amalka in a nearby forest. I have walked this forest path in my hometown countless of times and still love every step of the way. #2018 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #landscape #forrest #nature #everydayeasterneurope #instagood #photooftheday #picoftheday #asenbrennerova

I photographed my very first assignment for the ESPN magazine. If you know my work this might seem surprising but the assignment wasn't all that sporty and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I photographed Matt Breida of the San Francisco 49ers with his wife, Silvana, in their home in San Jose.

Rudolf is one of the residents in our town, I know him since childhood and photographed him for almost 10 years now. In this image he prepares hey for his animals.

Štěpán Tvaroh is artistic blacksmith. He started his own business about 3 years ago, shortly after he finished school. Perhaps to take a break from the fire and heat in his workshop he goes to the mountains every year in the winter time to work as a ski instructor. #2017 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #everydayeasterneurope #instagood #photooftheday #picoftheday #blacksmith #artist #asenbrennerova

Grandma passes by a window to my brother’s workshop. This is back in 2014 when she was still able to walk around on her own. Now she needs a bit of assistance but she still enjoys the outdoors. #2014 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #everydayeasterneurope #family #grandma #instagood #photooftheday #picoftheday # #asenbrennerova

Grandma unknowingly posing for a portrait during a coffee time she enjoys with my brother and his son, Krystof. Grandma is nearly blind and doesn’t hear too well either so she often doesn’t acknowledge right away that I am photographing her. She usually laughs when I tell her that a lovely photo of her was just made. #2018 #czechrepublic #personalwork #everydayeverywhere #everydayeasterneurope #instagood #photooftheday #picoftheday #family #grandma #home #coffee #awayfromtechnology #asenbrennerova
