Hasselblad Masters 2018 finalist

I have the big honor to have been shortlisted as one of the 10 Hasselblad Masters 2018 finalist for the prestigious HASSELBLAD MASTERS AWARDS 2018, among more than 31 500 entries from all over the world, and I am truly excited and proud about it.

After coming back from my New York workshop and the scouting trip for my 2018 San Francisco workshop, I was working these days on a review of the Fujifilm GFX 50S medium format camera, the most affordable medium format camera and a great tool if you want to take your photography to the next level, and I intended for that to be my next article.
But in the meantime this very exciting news came and I felt the need to share it with you. Continue reading →

LIVE PHOTOGRAPHY INTERVIEW AND LATEST NEWS

follow me on Instagram Julia Anna Gospodarou

My latest live photography interview for Paul Griffiths’ show “Photography Live and Uncut” and otherย photography news, black and white fine art tutorial collection and more.

Since I’m not necessarily sending out a newsletter, I thought of including from time to time in my usual posts a few that have to do with my latest activity and the latest things I publish, be them tutorials, interviews or different other offers (workshops, products etc.) – mostly educative info that can help other fellow photographers in their quest for creating fine art photography and (en)Visionography. This is one of those posts.

Live Photography Interview

I will start with a live photography interview I gave recently to Paul Griffiths, for his show Photography Live and Uncut, a great show where Paulย has interviewed some very inspiring photographersย over time. I’m actually very proud to have been invited to this show, considering the artists who were his guests in the past, and I will mention only a few very well known names like Michael Kenna , Alain Briot, Irene Kung, Rick Sammon, David Brookover, David DuChemin , Jonathan Chritchley, Bruce Percy, and I could keep going.

Iโ€™m in โ€œreflectionsโ€ mood these days. Shooting reflections is one of the most exciting things in photography, and it can be one of the hardest too. Sometimes you may get the right angle in a split of a second, other times you may need hours to find that perfect spot. One thing that I found as the most important when shooting reflections is to be flexible, both flexible in terms of approach as well as being โ€œbody flexibleโ€. Often times the best angle requires the most uncomfortable position to get it. Which is why we as photographers have to stay fit :)

_Conscience Reverberation II_ Toronto We do so muc _Conscience Reverberation II_ Toronto
We do so much of what we do out of habit and to conform to rules made by others, many times without even thinking about what we really want. The power of othersโ€™ opinion is so huge that it can completely change lives. 
I know so many people who will rather suffer doing things they donโ€™t believe in and donโ€™t like just to comply with what they โ€œshouldโ€ do or because that is expected from them. What I always want to say to those people is that life is short. You see it passing by so quickly in front of your eyes and it never stops to wait for you if youโ€™re undecided and if you live the life others decide for you. And life is so fragile. We saw it so clearly this year with the pandemic. We see it every day in people regretting they didnโ€™t chase their dreams and what they believed, in people who lived according to principles that werenโ€™t theirs. 
We are so privileged to live this life. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed when I think of this, when I am aware of it. I feel tears coming to my eyes in those moments. Tears of awe. I just wish we were all aware of this in every moment and we could all live the life we truly want. That we all dared to go for it and be happy. It is why we are here, after all. To be unique and to experience life to its fullest. This is what I wish you all :)

_Flow State III โ€“ Toronto_ One of my favorites s _Flow State III โ€“ Toronto_
One of my favorites structures, designed by one of my favorites architects, Santiago Calatrava. I just realized, looking at my images today, that I have shot a lot of Calatrava structures these past years, in Athens, New York, Toronto, Valencia, Barcelona, Amsterdam and elsewhere. I was also lucky to participate as an architect in the design of the projects he did in Athens. Thus I guess I can say that I have a very special multidisciplinary relationship with Calatrava. :)

It was teamwork, and we represented Greece with my fellow photographers at one of the most distinguished international competitions, which makes me even happier to have been awarded.

Fluid Time V โ€“ Aligning Paths The 5th image in m Fluid Time V โ€“ Aligning Paths
The 5th image in my Fluid Time series, shot in Chicago in 2013. 
You can find limited edition prints of this and more images at www.juliaannagospodarou.com 
Iโ€™m quite fond of this image, and I remember how much fun I had playing with the camera and the geometry to get a dynamic shot of the convergence of these 2 buildings. The image was shot with the 24 m TS lens of a Canon full frame. 
The particularity of this image is that I wanted to emphasize the composition's dynamism even more by using selective focus with the tilt function of the TS lens. One of the challenges was to place the area of focus in the right spot, given that focusing with the tilt function of TS lens is entirely different than the way we regularly focus. It took quite a bit of work and patience to get it right but it was worth it. 
This is one thing you need to have when working with the TS lens, patience. And the second is the desire to think out of the box and play with your gear. I just love doing that.

Fluid Time IV โ€“ Stopping Time This is the 4th im Fluid Time IV โ€“ Stopping Time
This is the 4th image in my 2013 Fluid Time series and it shows one of the iconic historical buildings in Chicago, the Wrigley Building. Finished in 1924 and built in the Spanish Colonial Revival style, it was one of the first highrises built in the area. 
Here too, I used the tilt function of the tilt-shift lens, as in all the images in the series, and it was actually a quite challenging image to shoot because of the intensity of the effect I needed, which wasnโ€™t easy to create. But the more challenging, the more I love it. Easy images are boring, isnโ€™t it? As everything that is too easy. :)
