Long Exposure by
ARNAUD BATHIARD France ndmagazine.net/photographer/arnaudbathiard Born in Burgundy, France, in 1973. I started to take pics at the age of 40, learning by myself. I like long exposures and minimalism, Japanese poetry and Russian novels, I collect Jazz records and old African statuettes, I travel a lot and I guess that’s all about it. I take long exposures for I never know with certainty what will come out of the camera : sometimes a good surprise, sometimes not. But the wait is in itself always exciting. The following pictures have been shot in different places: France, Turkey, Madeira, Spain, Sweden. I’d like to dedicate them to Tiphaine, whose patience is limitless.

JEAN-PAUL SOUJOL France jpsoujol.com A native-born Vauclusian, or nearly so, Jean-Paul Soujol lives above the little town of Vaison la Romaine (Provence – France). Jean-Paul Soujol, overtaken in 2009 by a passion for photography, set out to show what no one else could see. He works with his lenses, his heavy cameras and his tripod like a painter with easel, canvas and paints. Setting up in front of a subject that he has isolated, he waits for the unexpected cast of light, the quirk of cloud, the breath of wind that will make the “captured” landscape not a snapshot of reality or beauty but a creation. And like a painter accustomed to reworking and perfecting back in his studio the
MonoPix 2016© | 46
sketch he took of the subject, the photographer once returned from his trek sits down at his computer and opens up the raw files that his camera spills out. Playing with contrasts, colour balance, curves, the pixel-detail of the shot, he accentuates its “pictoriality” and adds his own touch. An exclusively landscape photographer, Jean-Paul Soujol moves us toward the abstract and minimalism with the technique of long exposure. So, bounding waves, under the effect of a long exposure and lack of perspectives, it reappears metamorphosed as haze, cloud, ocean, so many more landscapes born of the one landscape.

MATT BACHDAR Indonesia ndmagazine.net/photographer/matt-bachdar An amateur photographer lived in Ternate, North Maluku, Indonesia. I first to know photography when I was in Junior school by learning from my father. The interest has grown when I was in college. Most of my images are capturing the natural beauty of North Maluku islands where I was born and raised. I like being out with the camera on my own down the coast of my hometown. I have great passion on black and white images, with simple object and minimal compositions.

JAMES CRAWFORD USA fineartamerica.com/profiles/3-james-crawford Born 1946 in California, U.S.A. I have been artistic from day one. I was always sketching in class in grade school and semi listening to the instruction. Was introduced to Architecture and have been practicing for 45 years while producing art. Photographic Art is my PASSION. Crawford’s interest in art began in high school and further developed at Orange Coast College where he majored in Architecture and minored in History and Art. In 1966 while in Viet Nam he purchased his first 35mm camera and with limited time, he was able to begin his craft. Upon his return to the States, Crawford lived and worked in Laguna Beach, Ca. pursuing an Architectural career while continuing to photograph and interacting with area artists. In 1976 James moved to San Luis Obispo, California to further his education at Cal Poly where he majored in Architecture and minored in Photography. At the time, photography was in the Journalism Department and then transferred to the Art Department. MonoPix 2016© | 98
James thus enjoyed the best of both disciplines. Crawford states that ‘ I have been greatly influenced by the Brooks experience because all my professors were Brooks Institute graduates. James continues to further his photographic education through yearly workshops with varied Master Photographers. Crawford believes there is more to photography than looking through the camera and pressing the shutter. He says, ‘ The camera is only part of the process. It’s where your creativity leads on the computer, or the darkroom. It is not a mere image, it is an extension of your whole self, your whole being, the sum of all your experiences and the influences of great artists I admire.’ Some of those artists are Mondrian, Braque, Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray, Klee, the Architect Antonio Gaudi and the photographers Eadweard Muybridge, Wynn Bullock and Paul Strand to name just a few. Crawford states that many artists are an influence.
