I am proud to share with you that two of my images got nominated for the Black and White 5th Annual Spider Awards. These images were made following a workflow (detailed below) which helps me produce them in ways that I always wanted to try but never dared in the past.
Black and White Spider Awards is the leading international award honoring black and white photography. This celebrated event shines a spotlight on the best professional and amateur photographers in a prestigious annual competition and globally webcast event, reaching photo fans in over 154 countries. With a collective Judging Panel of the world's most recognized experts from SOTHEBY'S, TATE, MAGNUM PHOTOS, FRATELLI ALINARI, ARMORY SHOW, HAMILTONS of London and more, the awards are the industry's most authoritative and important photographic event for black and white and mono art.
How it all came together:
Repeat trip to the same location. Mine my subject
Visualize my next photoshoot. Not an image but a concept
Get inspired by the masters and create my own vision
Think "sideway". Push the limit of my technical and creative knowledge
Be efficient when reviewing my images in the field
Pre-postprocessing in the field - "Sketching"
Backup all my data before returning home
When home, review and enhance my "Sketching"
Print and "live" with my images for a while
Select final images and refine the post processing to realize master versions
Further refine my prints
Output my images as print and other medium format
Backup, archive, and store my master images
