Thursday for the journalistic community of the Kuban came the sad news: the deaths of Peter Ivanovich Anal, Honored worker of culture of Krasnodar region, the winner of the main awards among photographers in the region of the “Golden lens Kuban” and many other prestigious awards. He was 77 years old.

Anela was amazing destiny. Born in Belarus, the first steps were made in Nazi Germany, in the walls of the camp Westland, where he was with his mother an infant. Then, in October 1943 all the inhabitants of his native village Matzke drove to Church and was almost set on fire, and then drove to Germany. Over two years together with his mother, he spent in a concentration camp. They returned home in October 1945.

That terrible time left in the memory of an indelible mark. Maybe these memories became the reason that Janel loved to shoot soldiers and veterans. Thanks to them he was again in his native land.

His childhood and youth in Belarus. Here, still a schoolboy, he first picked up a camera. And the countdown of his professional career he was that day, when almost 60 years ago in the newspaper “Vitebsk worker” were his first shot, which Petr Ivanovich received a fee.
Kuban Peter Enel was when he was sent to serve in the army. Along with 30 fellow from Minsk, he was in Armavir. Told me that then has not parted with a camera. The best images were sent to a local newspaper. Photo paid three rubles. For the young soldier it was a lot of money! And after retiring to civilian life, he became a professional photographer. Worked at first in Armavir, then was invited to work in Krasnodar. And not somewhere, and in the main regional Newspapers “Sovetskaya Kuban” (today – “Volnaya Kuban”).

From that time in his personal archive contains a lot of bright moments and names, famous and not. In one shot, Mikhail Gorbachev and his delegation visiting the fields of the Leningrad district, on the other – the first visit of Boris Yeltsin to the regional capital. But most of all Peter Ivanovich was like an ordinary workaholic whose portraits decorated newspaper strips. “There is no farm, where I hadn’t visited with my camera,” he told the young journalists who listened to him literally open-mouthed. He also worked in the regional newspaper “Kuban news” and “Kuban today”. Pictures signed by Peter Anele regularly appeared on the pages of the “Russian newspaper”

– Along with Peter Anilam leaving a whole era of photographers with Soviet roots, – says the Chairman of the regional Union of journalists Diana Gorban. – He had his own unique style, the ability to see important in his character. Many photographers Kuban said Peter Ivanovich his teacher��. His departure is a great loss to the professional community. Since 1974, Peter Anel a member of the Union of journalists of Russia.

the News of the departure of the oldest Kuban photographer made the rounds on the social networks, gathering a lot of feedback. “Peter Janel was a hard worker. Always in motion, traveling, highly mobile, robust, one dealt with the survey for all departments of the editorial Board. Always positive, always did everything with a smile, with a joke-pribaoutki . Simple, modest, hard-working and very responsible person. Old-school. By the way, in 80-e years they very much went over the edge with Glory Souchou, one wrote, another shot. Gone in one year. The bright memory of him!”, wrote on with a howl in the housing market, the former editor of “Sovetskaya Kuban” Svetlana Shishkova-shipunova.

the place and time of farewell to Peter Ivanovich Anilam will be announced later.
