Photos
Photography is another great form of art and I like being on both ends of the camera. Enjoy the images about my extraordinary family and from various chess activities. Special thanks to my friend Timea Jaksa and to the Judit Polgar Chess Foundation for creating and sharing some of my favorite photos.
