Pandemic & Quarantine

Surely this was a bad period globally. Entering the discussion I wish health to all and quick recovery to people that are infected.
I spent about two months being of work. Although it was a bad period for all, it was also a good chance for study.
I spent the time of quarantine quite creatively. I had plenty of time to experiment from the beginning, to the the day that we had stay home until the end of restrictions.

I dedicated a lot of time (well the most of it) in photography, mostly studying the history, the art movements of it. I studied great photographers of the world from America, Europe and Asia.

The most interesting part was the lives of great photographers of the world and the way they expressed their photographic art. Their beliefs, their thoughts and their course through time. I was quite happy to realise many thing especially in the field of self expressionism through photographic art. All this intense study helped me to understand better my photographic perception and in some cases I will dare to say that I found self - confirmations in personal self beliefs about self expression in photography.

With all this everyday study came also a personal distanciation from some online Greek Photo communities. I still study to this day about photography and art movements as well as self expressionism through the lives of great and famous photographers such us, Ansel Adams, Cartier - Bresson, Sebastiao Salgado, Bill Brandt, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Robert Cappa, Alfred Sieglitz, Dorothea Lange, Arnold Newman, Edward Steichen, Steve Mc Curry, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Annie Leibovitz, Diane Arbus, Andreas Gursky, Michael Kenna, Fan Ho, Nobuyoshi Araki, Lu GuangPlaton, and many, many other.

I also dedicated a lot of time in the fields of Post Processing mostly because of the constant photographic social debates concerning if it is right or wrong, especially from people that struggle to prove that self artistic expressionism through photography with post processing is not right. They ignore that form the beginning of photography (pictorialism period) and then after, post processing was done in in printing rooms with masking, dodging, burning, double exposing and image combining as being done today in software processing.

All this period impacted me strongly.
What I kept the most is that its individual has its style and expressionism which is souly, aesthetically and sentimentally driven. That there are no absolute rules. And the effort of self improvement and self discovery is endless.

I also had the chance to experiment a lot indoors with photography.

I hope I didn't tire you.
