At school my academic interests steered me away from the arts towards the sciences, ultimately leading to a research career in medicine both as an academic and in industry. Latterly, however, the opportunity arose to focus full-time on my long-standing interest in photography, now devoting serious time to developing it as a “second career”.\n\nI'm interested in landscape subjects, particularly where water is a feature, but the overriding motivation to make a photograph is driven first by an emotional connection with the subject whatever it may be; and sometimes that subject may not be a landscape in the classical sense. As my journey into full-time photography has been driven in part as a therapy, my approach to making images has evolved to be contemplative, conveying a sense of place and, possibly, escapism. I make photographs firstly for myself, capturing fleeting moments that have triggered a visceral response that I want to be able to recall. Working in black and white, the images typically try to evoke a feeling of calmness and tranquility, inviting the observer to pause, think and engage with the subject, sharing that emotional connection and, perhaps, even to picture themselves being there.","user_id":208905,"name":"Adriano Henney","website":"www.adrianohenney.com"},{"id":209602,"bio":"","user_id":209000,"name":"Chaik Hong Koh","website":"kohkchpower94.wixsite.com/chaik-hong"},{"id":209744,"bio":"A street photographer based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Around the age of twelve my mom gave me my first camera. I began photographing the world around me, not just goofy pictures of my friends that most kids would do. A year later the great landscape photographer, Ansel Adams passed away. I saw a television interview he had done. They shown some of his work and I quickly became an admirer of his. I began considering the possibility of becoming a landscape photographer.\n\nOf course life hands everyone twist and turns including myself. By the time I met my husband I was in the printing industry. My husband suggested on a trip we were taking to bring my camera. Thus began the second phase of my photography career. In the beginning I photographed primarily for fun, first photographing my step-children’s soccer games, then some of the vacations and finally I became more serious when I attended a nature photography workshop. Everything seemed to “click.” Now over the past several years we’ve traveled everywhere in the United States, photographing the beauty our country has to offer.\n\nPhotography has affected me in every aspect of my life. If I’m not photographing nature, I’m writing about it. I’m looking outside my window in my home trying to decide if the light is perfect to photograph a landscape. When I’m traveling anywhere I try to “see” a landscape photograph; I’m always working on my compositions. I love the “click” the camera makes when the image is captured on the digital card.

Too many people require a greater orchestration and luck.\n\nI believe that when shooting there is a mindset or zone, where you’re operating at a heightened state and working instinctively. Getting to that feeling is the difficult bit. Cartier-Bresson interpreted this feeling as something attuned to a Zen-like trance.

Maybe my themes have shifted over the years but my basic approach has always been ‘I’ll know it when I see it’ and I always take photographs that are pleasing to myself.

These photos provided a glimpse into the lives of these people that I never had the privilege of meeting. The photos showed me the lives of my parents, and grand parents, and great grandparents before them. I remember seeing a photo of my parents when they were young and realizing for the first time that they too were once kids, teenagers, and young adults before they were 'my parents'. They were people, humans that had fun and made mistakes and lived entire lives. And the same could be said for every single person on this planet. I love getting to know people and have them tell me about their lives. Photography is a way to share stories with others and to document history—both mine and others around me. The inner thoughts that run through each individuals mind intrigues me, the idea that every single person is always having a dialogue with themselves that you will probably never know. I love that taking photos shows a bit of my own inner dialogue and the things I see with others. I love that each photograph means something different to everyone but can touch people in a way words sometimes cannot. I love that it gives me the opportunity to connect with my subjects on a deeper level. I love that I get to save these photos of my history and that they will tell a story of the lives of the people I saw—adventures, animals, family, friends, and strangers alike.

Autodidacte, il apprend les bases de la photographie dans un club-photo puis affine son regard dans les musées, les galeries et au fil des livres d’art qu’il consulte. Il poursuit en même temps des études d’histoire et de géographie qu'il finance en travaillant à mi-temps et commence à enseigner comme instituteur. En 1989, il abandonne l’enseignement pour se consacrer à la photographie.. Ses reportages le conduisent dans une centaine de pays et ses images sont publiées dans de nombreux magazines. À Paris il participe durant plusieurs années à l’équipe d’animation des 30x40.\nDans ses recherches photographiques personnelles, il s'attache à une exploration intime des profondeurs de l'image photographique. Par une mise à nu et une exaltation de ses détails, il utilise des éléments naturels tels que la neige, l’eau, le feu, la poussière, la fumée, le verre, etc. pour la métamorphoser. Il y découvre la part insolite de mystère naissant de sa dégradation ou de son érosion. Les photographies comme toutes les œuvres d’art sont vivantes et sujettes à la transformation par le vieillissement, l’agression, la destruction. L’artiste peut ainsi générer des textures inattendues et des atmosphères étranges par son intervention mais aussi en provoquant l’action du hasard, accordant sa confiance aux accidents qui permettent de faire surgir l’imprévu dans le jaillissement des formes. Il a publié une douzaine de livres : India Holy Song, Les Belles Disparues, Monks of Dust, L’Odyssée du Belem, HOLI, fête de l’Amour et du Printemps, Made in Sarcelles - Belle comme le Monde, Visage de Paix. Ses œuvres sont conservées dans des musées prestigieux comme la BNF, le Musée Nicéphore Niepce, la Maison Européenne de la Photographie, le Southeast Museum of Photography en Floride ou le Museum of Fine Arts de Houston – Texas.\nIl fonde en 2006 PHOTSOC, Festival International de la Photographie Sociale où il présente dans les quartiers dits défavorisés des auteurs confirmés, aide de jeunes auteurs à émerger.

I feel photo a personal way of “writing with the light” my life, a way to understand myself and teaches me to feel the passage of time in my own way. My father, musician, taught me on “pause in music” and that mysterious moment remained in me, a suspended time, empty of everything and the mind is focused on nothing: this is the moment when emotions appear. My passion for advertising pushed me to commercial photography: I left my “secure” work in an important oil company and began to study advertising photography. With the money I earned in the company, I created the opportunity to stay for almost one year in New York working as assistant in a studio, and develop my project “Neon City”, an abstract vision of neon lights in N.Y. Back to Italy, I opened my studio: the 80s, the golden years of advertising, but also a very difficult time for a “woman photographer”: “Who is she?” was the phrase I heard most from “my” customers.\nI met the island of Boipeba in 2002, while visiting Bahia, the locations of Jorge Amado's romances, and I felt in love with this small, antique, almost primitive, and wise place. \nAfter 1 year, I sold “my life” and when moved, all I thought important of past entered in only two cases, with my camera, my dog, to start all over again. \nBoipeba gave to me a new way of living and looking at life: from actors’ photographer, I became a portraitist of people who had no pictures of themselves and, sometimes, had no mirror at home. I understood that could use my profession to create the histories of Native people, up to that point only “oral memories”, photographing their poetic life. I spent 12 years on it and finally I dedicated to the Island the photographic book “Boipeba timeless place”. The book, numbered and signed by me, gave the natives the opportunity to recognize themselves through the photographic story.\nIn 2005, with Native friends, we founded the cultural association and the library, which received many awards and recognition in Brazil and in Italy. For this photographic and cultural work, the Brazilian Navy awarded me as \"Artist of the Year 2013\". We helped and revalued the timid cultural voices in the island: capoeira and African dance, and created the habit of reading, in a place where a book was a treasure.\n15 years ago, I also lived the privilege of being chosen as \"Filha de Santo\" (“daughter of Saints”) by the “Terreiro of Candomblé” and being allowed to photograph the intimate moments of spiritual, hidden ceremonies. Candomblé is the ancient African religion, brought to Brazil by slaves. It is an honor, a privilege being embraced and chosen in the candomblé as a foreign woman: I consider it as a great responsibility and one of the most beautiful presents I received in my life.\nMy liability is also to show the island as a unique and precious place, that we must protect and respect. I built a B\u0026amp;B in the forest, with a mixture of Italian and Afro-Brazilian touches, for the guests to understand and appreciate where they were. I made photo works in the island, but I never ask money to Native people for it. And, starting when they were 13-14 years old, I taught to a girl and a boy the art of photography, and now they work as photographers. I never forget my Italian roots, they are too much important, but at the same time I created completely new ones, in a new place of belonging and with other “families”. Thus, the images of the fishermen's bodies sometimes look like a neorealist film, the dress of a Mother of Saint is a Renaissance painting. And I learned the new and precious longing of feeling at home, very far from home. In the last 4 years I dedicated myself to personal social and artistic projects, exhibitions, workshops between Brazil and Italy and works as curator and tutor of women photographic projects. I am co-founder of the “Women's Photo Club”, to develop opportunities for women in photography.","user_id":221783,"name":"cristina cenciarelli","website":"cristinacenciarelli.myportfolio.com"},{"id":222486,"bio":"\nZEN is my eye.

He began photographing in the 1980s during the final years of apartheid. It was his work as a ‘struggle photographer’ at this time that first brought his work to global attention. In the early 1990s, he moved to London, from where he continued to respond to global social issues, notably his longitudinal project on the impact of HIV/AIDS. That photographic odyssey began in Africa and expanded to numerous other countries during the last twenty years. The concluding and ongoing chapter, Through Positive Eyes, is a collaborative project in which Mendel’s role shifted from photographer to enabler, handing over his camera to HIV-positive people.\n\nHis first book, \"A Broken Landscape: HIV \u0026amp; AIDS\" in Africa was published in 2001. Since then he has produced a number of photographic advocacy projects, working with charities and campaigning organizations including The Global Fund, Médecins Sans Frontières, Treatment Action Campaign, the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, Action Aid, the Terrene Higgins Trust, Shelter, Leonard Cheshire International, UNICEF and Concern Worldwide.\n\nMendel has worked for many leading magazines—amongst them National Geographic, Fortune Magazine, Condé Naste Traveller, Geo, The Independent Magazine, The Guardian Weekend Magazine, The Sunday Times Magazine, Condé Nast Traveler, L’Express, Stern and Rolling Stone.\n\nSince 2007, Mendel has been occupied with Drowning World, an art and advocacy project about flooding that is his personal response to climate change. This work has been applauded for its unusual approaches to portraiture and the development of a variety of visual strategies and elements, including video, to deepen the impact of the endeavor.\n\nHis work is increasingly being seen in a variety of gallery contexts, with some of his earliest work from South Africa included in the ongoing Rise and Fall of Apartheid touring exhibition. Drowning World has featured prominently at the ICP Triennial and Picture Windows installations in New York, as well as in numerous other public installations, photo festivals and galleries.\n\nAmongst many accolades, Mendel has won the Eugene Smith Award for Humanistic Photography, six World Press Photo Awards, first prize in the Pictures of the Year competition, a POY Canon Photo Essayist Award, the Amnesty International Media Award for Photojournalism and he was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 for Drowning World.","user_id":223341,"name":"Gideon Mendel","website":"gideonmendel.com"},{"id":224146,"bio":"I already submitted my background ","user_id":223544,"name":"Regina Alatriste","website":"www.instagram.com/reginalatriste"},{"id":223842,"bio":"Just a moth, I am, fluttering towards the neon glow of Asian cities.

Through my photos I try to explain, redefine and express this dialog.\n\nThe unidentified human presence, sometimes being a silhouette and sometimes a shadow, is an element that I often use in my effort to tell a story. In many photos, the human is absent as matter; it only exists in a mental way, part of an urban environment full of forms, geometry and abundant light. This way, I attempt to show the environment’s psychological effect on human beings, but also the influence human beings impose on it. In my photos nothing is named and nothing is realistic. \n\nThe abstract, I believe, has more to say than the specific. I want the viewer, the recipient, to be able to freely perceive my images, to enter the environments they depict and compose his own image.\n\n","user_id":224516,"name":"Iraklis Kougemitros","website":"iraklisk-htakat.com"},{"id":225330,"bio":"Street Photographer.\nMy concentration: Streets, near and far.\n\nAfter being a fine art painter for some years I took up photography in a serious way in 2016.

He only began delving into photography in 2010 when he received a digital SLR camera as a gift for his forty-sixth birthday from his beloved wife, Donatella. Despite quietly loving this art form, it was at this moment that he decided to explore it deeply.\nBefore pursuing photography, music was his main passion. He played the guitar in various settings, including on the streets, spending many years in the field of music entertainment. However, his career took a significant turn at the age of 35 when he started working at a television station. Here, he filled diverse roles, including video editing, broadcast technology, and sound engineering. During this time, he had the opportunity to explore what would become another passion: computer-generated imagery (CGI). His 13 years of experience in this field formed a solid foundation in the worlds of art and technology.\nIn conclusion, Di Patrizi is an inspiring example of how passion can grow and flourish unexpectedly. His photos showcase his love for the street and his talent in capturing unique, authentic moments.

I studied civil engineering and work as an engineer. Photography entered my life in 2011. Since then not a day has passed without photographs in one way or another. I love stories. I love pictures.

At first it was just a hobby but quickly evolved into my passion and with help from my friends I was able to improve a lot in very short period of time! Photography for me is not just shooting beautiful faces, it's about getting to know the person I'm shooting and allowing a model open in front of the camera, it's about capturing that moment and emotions in-between my lens and a person.

By seeking isolated spaces as a form of exploration of self,  she documents specific moments in time when solitude and open spaces alter her landscape perception. This shift enables her to see past the present and investigate the earth as a timeless, wide open space where she can then project her narratives. Her work has been exhibited in Sydney, New York, Los Angeles and London and printed on a variety of publications including The Earth Issue, Satori Mag, Jungle Magazine, NOICE and many more.\n\nIn 2019 she released her first monograph, Desert Portraits, by Scandinavian Publisher The New Heroes \u0026amp; Pioneers, based on her series Moon Kingdom.\n","user_id":265254,"name":"Chiara Zonca","website":"www.chiarazonca.com"}]}
