A Photographer’s Introduction to Gentle

What is mild? This potentially could be the most straightforward dilemma with the most elaborate answer in pictures. Gentle enables us to see, produce, and most importantly express meaning by way of our artwork. Gentle also provides us the oxygen we breathe (by means of plant photosynthesis).

I believe each photographer really should to some diploma be fascinated with light, which feels like equally science and magic.

The Physics of Gentle

Mild is electrical power. Easy adequate, ideal? But let’s dive deeper.

The precise physics definition of light-weight exists in a lot of types and about the previous century, Nobel prizes were awarded for several additions to what we simply just connect with mild. The style of power mild is is named electromagnetic radiation. Modern physics agrees that light-weight exists as photons, compact particles of light that are pure electrical power.

An introduction to medium format film photography

Medium format film cameras are gaining in popularity again thanks to their improved image quality and a unique look, but there are a few things to know before you consider giving it a try, says Damien Demolder


AP Editor Nigel Atherton shot this portrait of model Amelie Hurley (@ameliehurley) using a Hasselblad 500CM and Ilford FP4 Plus film from Analogue Wonderland. It was lit using natural light with a Lastolite TriFlector. The ’blad was the pro workhorse of choice for decades, and is still probably the most desirable medium format film camera, due to the exceptional build and image quality. Consequently they tend to fetch £1,500 to £2,000 for a good-condition example with a waist-level finder and 80mm lens. Thanks to Derrick Bradfield (DerrickBradfieldPhotography.com) for the loan.
