27-year-old David Tesinsky is an independent photographer who travels the world documenting subcultures, urban cultures, street stories and people's stories in general. “I'm always in search for somehow controversial, unique, special lifestyles and I'm capturing bright moments and also problematics of nowadays,” he says in his blog on Bored Panda. Photography for Tesinsky is the cure that heals people through seeing other's stories captured in a meaningful way. It's what has motivated Tesinsky for years now. 

And as a way to give back to these people, places, and cultures, Tesinsky has been documenting different subcultures and people from around the world. From activists and a new generation of liberalists in Iran to exorcism rituals in Ethiopia; from the ‘tragi-comical' life of a Japanese businessmen to Rap as a religion in Detroit, NY and Baltimor; from living legends and Rastafarians in Jamaica to the life of drug addicts in Prague; from soldiers in Ukraine to a Satan community in Prague, life and much more, Tesinsky is stirring souls and provoking thoughts in the minds of his viewers through the lens of his camera. 

And the images will remain in your minds for a long time to come.
