In these times we all think that digital photography has almost ceased to side or chemical analog photography, as we discussed in one of our earlier post , we can still find, as there are photographers who continue to perform his work, hereby photo.

This is the case of Misha Gordin, Russian photographer, famous for his work to recreate in large mental universes, in which makes clear the concept of man over his environment. Works that evoke mystery, solitude and a great number of emotions which, trying to convey, these feelings are so important in the human being as they are to think or reflect. All this, with the help of White and Black.

Obviously, I write to discuss his work only, but to teach, still today, this level photographers are able to do so shocking images, and without the use of any digital item. In all his pictures, we see photomanipulations, masks, covered, burned, and so on, until a myriad of techniques both positivism as photo development, which makes them a delight to the eye, any passionate about photography. Techniques that today, with the use of photo software, seem to us far more simple, but for half as in the analog / chemist, not just double or triple their difficulty, but require a taste, and know Photo above normal.

Gordin, has come to gather up more than forty negatives at once, to get many of their final shots, or what would be the same, to make a digitally manipulated photograph, with about forty different layers (not set), but with all the difficulties, which contains the similarity in analogical positivism.

A life devoted to art and conceptual photography is what has made ??this Russian work no more than two months a year photographing and leave the rest of the year for substantiated in your home. Each of his works, goes to market with seven copies, instead of ten (as usual), leaving the three remaining children as a legacy. Copies that can reach three times its price, by the fact done “by hand”.

Day 20 to June 23 will celabrar in Logroño, Fotoconservación 2011. Is an international conference that will aim, trying to put on the table certain regulatory standards, to what is intended to be, conservation and restoration in the current picture. According to several sources within the organization is believed to become “one of the landmarks of photography for the last 30 years.”

The idea of ??holding this meeting is given for about 25 years when it began to address the inclusion of chemistry to conservation of photographic legacy.
A great initiative which will undoubtedly bring together great people of the world of photo restoration and conservation, as Anne Cartier-Bresson, Jesus Robles, Nora Kennedy, Romer Grent … among others. Speakers who contributed ideas and experiences, to get the lead back to a better state of preservation, from the first moment (even when shooting).

As many know, due to the inclusion of digital photography and social networking, much of photography has had to “reiniventarse” and this is also one of the aspects to be dealt within the world of conservation. Along reliza will be parallel activities, conferences, such as the course “New systems for digitizing historical materials on photographic support” among others.

It’s a great initiative without doubt, and hopefully get to float new ideas, and it seems that due to the massive viewing of images at our disposal every day, important issues such as this has been shelved thinking that is characteristic only of a non-digital photography, but neither is a lot less so. We must be aware that all our material (whether or not digital), has a shelf life and keep getting longer is very important for ensuring a photographic legacy.

Finally, I mention that attendance at both conferences, (there is one international and one national) and parallel activities can be performed through the web of Fotoconservación.

2020 Vision for a wilder Britain , UK is a photographic project for nature conservation. From a creative point of view and different attempts to sensitize the viewer to love nature. Probably this feature is a major that unites all those photographers who like contact us with the landscapes and nature. Concenciarnos should everywhere else.

Perhaps our role in society is not to overburden the people with technical persuasion but for speakers who can motivate on the practical importance of protecting the vitality of the ecosystems that sustain the welfare of all. The task, then, is motivating people by communicating in simple terms that connect with their value systems.

Within this project particularly highlight Ben Hall which has gained worldwide recognition as one of Britain’s leading photographers specialize in nature, although you have very big project in the photographers with their corresponding galleries to enjoy it. Focused almost exclusively on the British Isles, although you can visit his website the photos are extraordinary Patogonia Argentina, Ben has developed a deep knowledge of their natural heritage and how to represent visually. His images are often surprising and always trying to raise awareness of people with nature. He is described by Living Edge magazine as “a passionate photographer of nature and a perfectionist in the details.”

Ben’s personal approach to wildlife photography is in the creative art of “seeing.” Its aim is to use your image to convey his personal vision, to generate an emotional response and to excite the viewer’s aesthetic sensibility. Often pre-viewing a particular image in your mind before heading out to photograph. To realize this vision by making a photographic image can take weeks or even months, and often is seen frequently return to the same place to capture the perfect shot.
