Difference is otherwise known as forbearance and tolerance towards the other person. Respect for another person's feelings, customs, views, beliefs or tastes. Even if they were completely different from our own, let's try to accept them. The most important "key word" in dissimilarity are tolerance and acceptance. We tolerate someone's behavior, for example, but we don't necessarily have to agree with it. Acceptance, respects dissent and recognizes it as good and in line with one's own beliefs.

I am a photographer living in Poland. I am a graduate of the Wroclaw School of Photography. I love nature photography, macro photography, portrait photography and minimalist photography. While taking photos, I try to tell a story about each of them and “embed” certain emotions and feelings in them. It may sound cliché, but photography is my whole world, in which I have completely lost myself.
