The "cursed soldiers" (also known as "doomed soldiers", "accursed soldiers" or "damned soldiers"; Polish: Żołnierze wyklęci) or "indomitable soldiers" is a term applied to a variety of Polish anti-Soviet or anti-communist Polish resistance movements formed in the later stages of World War II and its aftermath by some members of the Polish Underground State. 1st of March is the “Indomitable” Soldiers National Remembrance Day in Poland. The Wolf's Trail Run is one of the events taking place to celebrate the Day. 1963 meters is the symbolic distance of the run, honouring the last Indomitable Soldier, Józef Franczak, codename Lalek, who was murdered by communists that year. Over 75,000 people participated in the Run this year. In Poland and around the world. About 200 people participated in the run in Sulejówek. Mostly families with kids, young people, older people. The guest and participant of honor was this veteran, Captain Jerzy Widejko codename „Jureczek”, an indomitable soldier himself in 1950s. He walked the whole distance and was not the last one to finish the run :) ----- Yashica Mat + Ilford HP5+ + Kodak HC-110 (Dil.B) I felt like this toning would be appropriate.

There are many sand pits around Sulejówek. Some of them are one hundred years old, remembering times when sand and clay (from numerous clay pits) were used to rebuilt Warsaw and nearby towns after WWI. Some are deep, some are shallow, all are dry with trees struggling to survive at their borders. ----- Yashica Mat + Ilford HP5+ + Kodak HC-110 (Dil.B) ----- This time I went there too late. Light was gone, the forest was dark. I made three shots juggling with f5.6-8 and 1/30-1/15 sec, because I did not have my tripod with me.
