Update!

BULB, Street Core Photography and PHOS (Street Photography Days) joined forces. BULB (2015), SCP (2014) and PHOS (2018) have been founded by Michail and they very much evolved so that a scaling up was needed.

The new structure is run by our team of editors and organisers who ensure the daily management and feature talented photographers, while running at the same time our FB and IG accounts!

Animal Planet

Understanding what means to be human is impossible without looking at our relationship with animals. From ancient drawings in caves and the symbolism of zodiac signs to agriculture to zoos and pets, animals have been part of human imagination. This reflection on our ability to connect with sentient life and derive a symbolic meaning from it distinguishes us as species. The instant, non-verbal communication of the animal gaze has a somewhat spiritual quality, albeit often with unequal balance of power, acting as a mirror to prompt a deeper understanding of ourselves and what we value.

Moments of urban enlightenment

The diversity of the world that surrounds us is not that much in it’s essence, but in the emotions it evokes and in the marks which make it different in any given moment. The dynamics of movement and the intentionally highlighted monuments and facades are only the basics of the city around us. Its soul is in the short stories hidden in its shadows. The way life turns objects into storylines with a single ray of light. The scenes where living flesh becomes one with concrete and iron in primordial battle of chaos and order. Little moments of urban enlightenment. (Text: Dimitar Spasov, Pictures: Svilen Nachev)

A journey

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!" -　from "On the road" by Jack Kerouac
