O noua colaborare cu Huawei

In ultima luna si jumatate am avut parte de o colaborare interesanta cu Huawei Romania. Am fost unul dintre cei care au comunicat atat despre Next Image Awards, (Concursul International pentru “Smartphone Photography” organizat de Huawei in fiecare an), dar si despre noul Huawei P40 Pro. A fost un proiect frumos, de care as vrea sa imi aduc aminte, asa ca las postul asta aici.

Colaborarea a avut toate coordonatele unui proiect fotografic fain. Am realizat imagini frumoase cu P40 Pro, am vorbit cu redactia A List despre fotografie, concursuri si imagini realizate cu telefonul mobil, i-am invitat pe cei care ma urmaresc sa participe la Next Image Awards, (un concurs fotografic cu premii de peste 10000$, cu expunere internationala majora si cu fotografi de talia lui Steve McCurry in juriu), iar, intr-un final am avut si un mic “giveaway”, un Huawei P40 Pro de dat pentru prietenii din online.

I revisited a spot I like in Bucharest, which says a lot about this city, often considered a city of contrasts, built like a spectacular accident, an unforeseeable “dance” between old and new. . Part of the “Wall” series, which I publish here under #agwallsseries hashtag. . Photographed with Huawei P40 Pro @huaweimobilero, using all three lenses of the camera (the “normal-angle” lens, the “wide-angle” lens, respectively the “telephoto” lens) . This post is an excellent opportunity to announce to you that Huawei will again organize the Next Image mobile photography contest, and the prizes are big. Check the link in my bio for how to attend it. . Share it if you like it! . #NextImage #WeSpeakPictures #HuaweiP40Pro .

Giveaway from Huawei, and some tips & tricks for good smartphone photography from me. More info below. . The model Dana Bujor came to my studio, especially for a “smartphone” photo-session. We’ve done a lot of pictures, like this one here. I’ve done this portrait using the primary lens of a Huawei P40 Pro smartphone, on Pro mode, using manual settings and focus. I recommend using the “manual focus” function for such a set-up. You need to be sure you’re targeting the eye on that lentil (the image on the lentil is not on the same focus plane as the hand or the body of the model). I’ll also suggest using a tripod, to assure yourself that everything is stable in your composition. .

I like to make my own postcards. Image from the “As I found it” series, which I publish here under #agasifounditseries hashtag. . I’ve done this landscape image, using the main lens of a Huawei P40 Pro smartphone, on Pro mode, shooting “raw.” I recommend using the raw file option for such a picture. It will give you great flexibility when adjusting the image with a specialized color grading software. You can recover details in highlights and shadows area, among other things that will increase the “richness” in color or details of your final picture. .
