there are many alternatives. to. make up your own mind to play. d.w. made for minds. and yoke as a substitute for nail polish find out how that works and later on in the show. hello and welcome to the special edition of your own max with me your host meghan lee today we are focusing on the world of photography here's a look at what else is coming up. how brendan berry from britain only makes

cameras from unusual materials. sacred spaces through the lens of french photographer tivo parini. but 1st we kick off this special edition with a swiss landscape for tar 1st stuff on for star who heads out into nature sometimes for weeks on end to get the perfect shot he uses both his camera and a drone to capture images of pristine landscapes without trying to optimize them with filters now while many of the places are recognizable 1st star tries to keep some of the location secret here's why. images of iceland greenland and the faroe islands taken from a drone. by photographer and camera man stephan

foster he sets out to capture nature's finest moments. of modern art in my images and film productions trying to show people the world the way it was before humans. and how it will be after. and the way it should actually stay with human kind this is from egypt very very important to you to show nature completely and blemished to talk. for i get almost. the northern lights over icebergs in southern greenland. flamingos after a storm in the highlands of chile. foster spends about 7 months a year on photo safari. misty lied to far when people ask me how to make of you to fall landscape photo or create a great atmosphere my answer is always the same dos the more often you come to a place the better you get to know it and the better your chances are of being able

to capture that special picture on that specific place of the small dolphins. stefan foster on a hike near his hometown vienna in eastern switzerland to him experiencing nature means sensing himself as part of it something that fascinated him even as a boy. thank you so much up and all what i think everyone has some place where they're totally happy. for me that place begins when the door closes behind all the but i can walk out into the works like you slide some point the words were placed by iceland work it out from i actually started walking across the debates he interrupts and only took my camera along to record my memories of this hot cuts how i got started with the top irish mayo it's more a by product of my love for nature. to all. the renowned photographer strives to reveal the beauty of the world around unadulterated if possible he may

use filters on occasion and process his images but he refuses to manipulate the colors. the rocky mountains in canada. and back to iceland again in particular devon fossa is attracted to the rugged landscapes of the high north he returns to them again and again. he's devoted an entire photo book to the region nordic islands with images from over 80 trips to greenland norway the pharaohs and of course iceland. he selected 160 images out of some 600004 the volume not in easy

task. for me she's just me still shooting at this isn't the best part of the worst for me is that all since the best part is being outdoors. i've always been that way and i'm fairly unemotional i lock the door to my office and my studio and switch my cellphone to the white rose and then i look through all the shots bam bam bam bam walk but i don't spend much time evaluating them and b. if an image doesn't jump out at me right away it's gotta pop the spec. these days fausta shoots about 40 percent of his photos from a drone his aerial images appear in international documentaries the flying camera has the added advantage of not leaving any tracks on iceland's must for instance. feel if you saw flesh it takes many of these lichens and losses in the north decades or even centuries to grow and if i come along in my heavy hiking boots and

90 kilos of weight and walk on the course everything would get destroyed cellists a story. the photographer knows all too well that in many places the pristine nature he's looking for no longer exists it's been altered and often endangered by human activity. most of concedes his photos to appeal to our emotions as most national polls the feelings they evoke don't have to only be positive off the air maybe a little sadness and melancholy mixed in all things must pass this is folk and nature shows us that it's all too well. often different foster explores yet untouched regions in search of film and photo motifs. but he. keeps the exact location secret so as not to attract tourists. he considers that an obligation to show the beauty of our planet and how much he needs protecting.

say cheese as you know and that is the typical phrase we use 1st smiling when taking a picture well british photographer brendan barry perhaps took this thing too literally he builds his own cameras using all kinds of materials but perhaps the most interesting and unique one is out of cheese but how good is the photo quality of a so-called cheese camera well that is something we had to see for ourselves. she's camera. telephone box camera. and a camp a camera all built by british photographer brendan barry let's start with a cheese. grater barry teaches photography in exeter in southwestern england. but he's more interested in the process than in the fascist themselves. so he

builds his own cameras with all possible and impossible materials. today a camera made of cheese. one thing i like to do. is kind of play with people's preconceptions an understanding of what cameron is and what it can do. when you make a camera of a block of something that people don't usually expect they respond. to the camera so obviously in a different way but also the pictures that you take whether. it's trying to easy to build the camera like this but it's not so easy on the net. a frame for the light sensitive paper is screwed to one side of the hunted up block of cheese and twisted into the have assigned and one of. the light passes through the lens and hits the face a graph paper which can then be developed. it works just out.

after just 2 hours of slicing and placing the cheese cameras ready for a time sensation brandon berry uses old polaroid film that develops itself 3. the film or using is out of date right now they start making about 10 years ago i feel like my fridge since then which we're using today so the effects could be all over the place. and lego camera an accordion camera camera and so on then settle for. even convention and the entire campaign and equipped it with a darkroom. day brandon barry's taking his camper camera for a little drive through the country side of the car. came on i thought well

if i can just be inside the camera and have a dark room inside as well i have on. and i could take my dog. car anyway and sort of being in a store space which was the. everywhere else could be the. final preparations for a fashion shoot with his mobile x x l camera. light is pouring through this lens and projecting the outside world inside upside down if i move this focal point. closer away from the. you see how different things come into focus. it's the same price range in barre positions the model and they're ready to shoot tiny bits you're right. so once in

a moment. turn the lights off closed. up and support a graph paper around the page. and a time to sports. will make an exposure by opening and closing lines one. 3rd. he puts the 1st went through the inside the camp and does the rest outside. it's incredible it's really nice because something interesting is incredible photographs. even a telephone box can become a camera and brant is already planning to repurpose many other objects to. owners of boats but camera one day. a double decker bus submarine because like but using the periscope as a camera. his camera concepts may sound rather

eccentric. but they do show a new perspective on photography. they produce unbelievable images. designing and building churches has probably always been one of the most challenging feats in architecture . is from france and a devoted churchgoer although not so much because he's religious he visits them as a traveling for torah for and is always on the lookout for new motifs. for me it's definitely the architecture and the power of this modern architecture through the 20th century. i always have a central point of view and that the churches are always empty. so

my goal is really just to create this sort of. feeling so that people can you know immerse themselves in the architecture. seeks out modern churches around the world for his photo series sacred spaces. like natural gem to try in paris it's original it's different from anything you could have seen and also it has this visual impact with the difference of materials with you know the wood the steel the lighting is very very interesting and in her it represents the. you know the workers of that era so it also has a very emotional. impact i think on the whole neighborhood. this perspective presents the architecture in the best possible light. and yeah you see in this one what's really beautiful is that the pillars are you

know all aligned so you really want them to be you know popping out of the photo so in that way you know the architecture speaks for itself there is no destructions it's always the same the same angle and when you put them all you know next to each other they're all very different but you get a cohesive. feeling of you know all the different churches. tivo portrays lives in paris he discovered his passion for modern churches 4 years ago since then he's photographed 36 of them in europe and asia. the most difficult part is finding them. because. when you start the series basically you start from 0 and there is a few that are kind of famous but most of them are not so it's it's mainly finding all the all the churches in the remote spaces so you would maybe never passed by

and you would actually not imagine what this is like maybe offices but not really. maybe a museum one this is notre dame to lash to learn young a cube shaped church on the outskirts of paris and. she bows approach is always the same he looks around chooses a point of view and takes a single shot. that's it. at home he makes only minor corrections to the image most of the work is already done. chemo is actually an interior designer and for him photography is just a hobby. yes his photo series have attracted attention around the globe. since 2015 probably has also been taking pictures of libraries around the world this photo series is his most famous work to date. it's

a specific space that everybody understand you know libraries or churches everybody's been there at least once in their lives. and they were made for a specific reason and so what i really find interesting how these architects have you know created. you know these different buildings but with the same the same purpose. one of his favorite churches is notre dame do not sell it in paris he feels that the round concrete structure emanates a sense of trying pretty. i guess i'm a pretty cool guy i mean i like it when you when i'm alone in the spaces because you actually get to experience the architecture in a very different way you know you know. it's just pretty it seems like it's been built just for you when you're there and you can witness it for you know however you perceive it. and in the photos people can imagine themselves and in the

picture. people point to his photo series sacred spaces a testament to faith in the power of modern architecture. when you take pictures of food you want to get people's mouths watering but one spanish for target for is targeting different emotions and her images make us look twice now they are collaterally composed works of art rich in color and whimsical ideas or food still plays a key role in her work but not as you might expect. split up the word breakfast and this is what you might end up with. these images are from tesla doniger spoke to series break fast. despite his photographer takes foods an ordinary objects and uses them to produce extraordinary pictures. if you need any that

last 3 would sound used to describe my work. particularly at the end up said. the efforts result in sue real compositions like an egg being shocked with ammunition. pancakes cooked with a minor rather than a frying pan. today taking photos to advertise a shopping mall in madrid as the campaigns created by wrecked she's to produce for images that will grace posters and appear on social media. because photos have little in common with classic food photography. by a good one they have ok sit up straight and show how much you like the shoe. that will go on i have in my fiction is the food usually looks

a little out of place as eve never seen it before in a way yes. they got enough it's been taken out of context and they say it overtly staged. it for you know what here we have a model i you know i know fashion and a campaign there that deals with it for in a playful way. discovered her passion for photography in film while she was studying art in 2015 she founded her own agency she shoots commercials and produces for 2 series for magazines. still colors and minimalist composition are her trademarks and food is her favorite subject sometimes eccentric sometimes provokingly state the biggest challenge is to make it look fresh and perfect. in minnesota well for a photo of the perfect is one that shines as a nice color and isn't overcooked one. of course we added the pictures later but in

general the glossy and fuller the better. just photographing the sandwich would be too simple instead. formed into nail polish because i'm usually stories are guaranteed to attract attention. and yes i guess that's a casing patches are a dime a dozen are the incidents one of them that you yourself are looking at today everyone has a smartphone and takes photos that are getting at so it's become harder to tell a funny story or save yourself a puff from the crown. whether it's breakfast lunch or dinner tessa dani has photos will leave you hungry for more. when you think of the alps normally images of hiking or skiing come to mind when german for tara for stuff on head for goes out into the mountains he's looking for

something completely different he's fascinated by abandoned buildings or so-called lost sleigh says his photos cannot save them from decay but at least he can preserve their memory. ruins in deserted places have always held a magical fascination for people. they make us wonder who once lived in them and what happened to them. stephan here fellate explores places like this with his friend felix who said in looks into their histories. of the superman perfect here you can clearly see the roof has caved in the windows are broken its essence of the plaster is crumbling from the walls all together it makes for some beautiful photos. the tooth

. built in the 1920 s. it served as a summer camp it's almost as if we can still hear the children laughing and playing who spent their summer vacations here until the late night 170 s. . this method other than i want my pictures to reflect what i feel when i enter places like these it's a little scary i get a queasy feeling or hearts pounding i get a shot of adrenaline and that's exactly this feeling i'd like to reproduce in light and shade i want people to see that in the photos in the story they shouldn't even leal it but rather have more atmosphere like in landscape photography shop. carefully travels the world as a professional landscape photographer he brings back images like this one of the grand canyon and the jungles of hawaii many of his pictures have won awards

he's widely recognized as one of the world's leading landscape photographers. heavily has been fascinated by abandoned houses since childhood he's published his discoveries in a book of photos. once splendid villas. first world war bunkers. hidden chapels. and factories where no machine has operated for decades. and. he doesn't say exactly where he finds the abandoned buildings so they won't be overrun by visitors. also many of these buildings are in decay and hazardous and most are hard to reach.

stephanie heavily never works alone. despite as much as albany spreader to go in with someone even when i'm just photographing my landscapes if something were to happen or if someone broke a ford taurus. it's safer but i'm lucky that it's never happened to me no major injuries but it's better to have a good pair along with able to help you. yeah. finding motifs takes some effort and detective work one of her family's methods is to scan satellite photos on the internet. postings from here you can see the places abandoned doesn't even have a roof. it can be just that simple reality is the norm it's harder you can browse certain blogs on the subject and you can find a lot so those that still intact root center are still nice on the inside and there's nothing more to see here or you happen to pass a bar and find something by chance and. stephanie if allays photos document traces

of civilization that time is gradually erasing. his works are a kind of monument to abandoned places. hour that we come to the end of this special edition on the fascinating world of photography but before we go just a quick reminder to follow us on social media or check out our website for more information about the show for me and the rest of us here in berlin as always thanks for watching we'll see you again soon.
