To fill the time during slow winter months, photographer Jonathan Andrew decided to follow through on an idea that he had a few years back: he started photographing old WWII bunkers.
Based out of Amsterdam, he already had several to work with close-by, but as the project has received more and more media attention, he’s taken the time to travel all over Europe, adding more beautiful, haunting bunker images to his portfolio. Perhaps even more interesting than the subject of his photographs, however, is how he captures them. Using a converted medium format camera, he takes 6-14 minute exposures, firing off a broncolor flash as many as 60 times to properly light the scene. In a sense, he uses a very pure form of light painting, using the technique not to actually “paint” anything, but to recreate studio quality lighting conditions on-the-go. To get all of the details from the man himself, be sure to watch the whole interview with photographer Drew Gardner at the top. SZYMON BRODZIAK photography.
Sarah Stephens x Agent Provocateur. Stunning Photos of Modern Architecture by Joel Tjintjelaar. Dutch photographer Joel Tjintjelaar transforms urban architecture into breathtaking abstract works of art.
Rather than capturing a traditional image of the Empire State Building, revealing its extraordinary height, Tjintjelaar takes creative liberties to mask the imposing extent of its towering stature and opts to play with the light bouncing off the building's textured facade. The edifice is now defunct of its vertical triumphs and instead a radiating horizontal extension of lines and boxes. There's often an asymmetrical harmony to Tjintjelaar's images that can perhaps best be described as melodic and elegant. The artistic elegance with which the photographer captures each of these architectural achievements is only heightened by the fact that he works exclusively in black and white. Tjintjelaar says, "I love Black and White photography because with the removal of color the essence of objects, situations, sceneries and people can become more visible.
