Favourite Picture 5

Hello everybody

 I've found this post completely by chance, but I'll take this opportunity to clarify. My first name and surname are Sławek Staszczuk, I'm a Polish native living in Brighton. To make it easier on people, especially online, I use my age-old nickname - Bruce. Altogether even my housemates address me as Bruce, so do many people at work. I know my real surname leaves most people from the "Anglo-Saxon" world baffled and actually I've always disliked the sound of it myself; I like my first name on the other hand, but still most people haven't got a clue how to pronounce it properly even in its impoverished version (with L instead of Ł). Albeit, these are my names and I can't do much about it, for the time being at least ;-), and I want my photographs credited to my person not just to some mysterious Bruce ;-). Thus whenever I open an account somewhere online I use my real names in the personal data section, so anyone inquisitive enough can easily find out who the author is. Although, I was surprised when I first saw my photograph "quoted" in a post here with my full name written under it, as I'd chosen to use my username in the options menu. Which leads me to the last point - "bruslaw" is simply a username, if you analyze a bit you can easily guess why.

I am sorry to have confused many of you, that was definitely unintentional, I just didn't know how things worked here. And thank you for your appreciation, I'm really glad you find those images appealing :-).

 Sławek vel Bruce ;-)
