Essential Truths by Rolland András Flinta

Taking photographs for me means thousands of thoughts running through my mind; means escaping the real world and diving into another world. For me a good portrait is an image that conveys essential truths about the subject, which penetrates their character to reach their essence. Being a good technical photographer does matter however is less important than being empathetic and identifying with the person in front of the lens… The complexity and the effort of analogue photography is much higher and the results are more worthwhile. Where art meets science – the variables including film type, exposure; time and the chemical development combine. The excitement and anticipation in the resultant photograph never the same sometimes not even similar. All this makes the photograph as much as the model, who has to sit still for so long, fascinating and compelling. Rolland András Flinta

Looking with X-ray eyes by Arie van’t Riet

As a physicist I specialized in radiation physics. Especially in very low energy X-rays. Some years ago I started to use these experience in X-ray photography. An amazing kind of black and white photography. Looking with X-ray eyes to nature. That’s what I like to experience with my X-ray camera. I prefer X-ray objects of ordinary scenes like a butterfly nearby a flower, a fish in the ocean, a mouse in the field, a haron along the riverside, a bird in a tree and so on. Each time it is challenging me to arrive at an X-ray photograph that represents the sentiment of the scene, do raise questions and excite curiosity.  Arie van’t Riet

Transfer the Emotions by Massimiliano Marchese

“I always try to transfer the emotions into the photo and I find it easier done with people, who are familiar with you. Street portraits are different, because even though you get a feeling of the subject, you still can’t be entirely sure of it and so you don’t always succeed in conveying the true emotions.” Massimiliano Marchese

What I Be Project by Steve Rosenfield

“The What I Be Project is a social experiment turned into, what is now, a global movement about honesty and empowerment. In today’s society, we are often told to look or act a certain way. If we differ from these “standards,” we are often judged, ridiculed, bullied and sometimes even killed over them. I started this project in hopes to open up the lines of communication, and to help everyone accept diversity with an open mind & heart and empower those who feel they suffer for something they may see as a flaw.” Steve Rosenfield
