EXHIBITION OF A NEW PHOTO SERIES ​ - Blog-Beitrag von Fotograf JORG BECKER / 21.04.2024 10:42

Like everywhere else in the world, it rained a lot on the tip of the Medoc Peninsula in the winter of 2023/2024. There were no storms or catastrophes, but the landscape was completely flooded and the wintry nature suddenly had its charm.

Since nature had no colors, I took a series of high-contrast black and white photos.

The Médoc is a triangular-shaped peninsula in the Gironde department in southwest France, which lies between the Atlantic coast (Côte d'Argent) on the Biscay, the Gironde estuary and the Arcachon sea basin.

The tip of the Medoc is the triangular part of the country between the Gironde, the Gironde estuary and the ocean.

The sparsely populated Medoc Peak is characterized by a balanced microclimate. The unique nature between the Gironde estuary and the long sandy beaches of the Ocean is a true paradise for many bird species that are no longer found anywhere else.

But many horses can also be found here. It is not for nothing that part of it is called the “Camargue” of the Medoc

You are invited to view this photo series.

I look forward to your comments.

Have fun…

Moments

Being there. The sights, sounds, smells remain yet are not clear. They are imprinted in the mind as a moment and a memory.

Studies in the area of cognitive studies show that the mind categorises time in 3 different ways; from 0-1 seconds is an instant in time, from 2-3 seconds is a moment and a compilation of moments creates a memory. Photography is unique in the way that it freezes time, or instants, which our mind is unable to do. The aim of the this project is to document our brain’s definition of moments, much like what a painter does with an empty canvas. Moments, being a sum of all our senses, add an extra depth to the photographs.

If photography is a "fossilisation of time" (Hiroshi Sugimoto), then photography can be an imprint of the human psyche and time lost to neural decay.

“It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone.”

Marilyn Monroe

It was within these last minutes of our shooting that all pressure fell off like a dry leaf on a windy day in fall. Just music, late afternoon light, a model that was a bit tired from the night before and a photographer who loves taking pictures.

Manual focus gives me a kind of inner peace while framing, even at open aperture..

Hey guys! I wanted to tell you about my latest photo shoot. I had the pleasure of working with an absolutely stunning model. She served as my muse for two hours, and together, we created some truly impressive images. We captured everything on roll film, using my beloved Mamiya RB67. The chemistry between us was just right, and Angi truly inspired me. I'm super excited to see how you all like our work!

Sehnsuchtsort Texel - Blog-Beitrag von Fotograf Thomas Maenz / 11.04.2024 18:41

Viel zu lange hat es gedauert, wieder einmal auf dieser wunderschönen Insel zu sein. Eine Woche Ende März VOR den Osterferien, und so war es überschaubar leer. Das Wetter war typisch Friesland. Nach einer Nacht mit ergiebigen Regenfällen war die Luft am nächsten morgen so klar, dass es die wahre Freude war, mit der Kamera loszuziehen. Ich genieße dieses All-Ein-Sein mit Wind, Strand und Meer. Formen, Strukturen, das Komponieren von Bildausschnitten; ein nie versiegendes Füllhorn an Möglichkeiten. Die Bilder sind rund um den Leuchtturm ganz im Norden der Insel entstanden. Der Strand lädt zu ausgiebigen Spaziergängen und fotografischen Entdeckungstouren ein. Leider, wie es so ist, war die Woche viel zu schnell rum, aber wir kommen wieder. Natürlich mit der Kamera.
