Julie is a very emotionally expressive artist. Her images emanate passion and mood, enhanced by surreal, dream-like composition. She only has 20 or so pieces uploaded, but each one is flawless, moving, and special. Her portfolio will take you on a journey through a world of wonder.
Christophe has an imagination like no other. He is able to utilize this, along with his expert shooting and processing skills to produce a spectacular piece of artwork with every upload. His creative vision is on a level that few can match. He shows us how far processing in the age of the digital darkroom can be stretched, and beyond.
Bragi has a unique, dramatic style. Most of his work involves nature and landscape, featuring subjects such as wild horses, abandoned homes, and ships. He has accomplished mastery of these genres while applying his own flare in processing. Bragi may also be the most well-known and impressive photographers of the aurora borealis on 1x.
Sven goes where many dare not go. He shows us the innards of abandoned buildings, capturing the amazing and unexpected beauty of these broken and tattered structures with perfect execution. His eye for perspective and composition shine in every piece. Browsing his portfolio is an adventure you will not forget.
Jure is a man who can do it all. From nature, to architecture, documentary and portrait. He is one of the most published artists on 1X and has found success in so many styles. Looking through his collection, you will see an experienced artist who has an eye for a quality shot in almost any location. I am blown away by his compositional vision.
Mister Solo is a master of still life and creative editing. Not only in execution of his style but in composition of some of the most unique frames on 1X. In particular, his "Humanity" series stands out as one of the more impressive sets of creative digital photography I have seen. For this set of images alone, his portfolio deserves attention and yet there are many other works as well that display top level artistry.
Michael is an artist of surreal portraits. His images generally feature a single subject in turmoil or despair. Every inch of the frame contributes to the story of the character, emotion drips heavily from the detail. Each image is a masterpiece that has been carefully crafted and built around a deeper message. His portfolio begs you to stay until each work is fully studied.
Fernand may be the most published artist on 1X. He is now nearing 400 published images and will certainly go far beyond that. To produce that much masterclass quality artistry should give anyone a reason to visit his portfolio. There may be no genre he has not covered and completely astounded us with. One could spend several days perusing his gallery. I would argue he is the most accomplished and complete photographer of 1X.
Pini Hamou takes us into a wonderland with their incredible portrait photography. The compositions are incredibly detailed and not a single element goes forgotten. The female form and beauty are the primary subjects adding a powerful touch to each piece. Work after work, Pini presents us with a special story and creative play on life.
I've not seen any creative edit photographers with the same or even similar style as Adrian. After many years and probably thousands of spectacular compositions, he has really isolated his creations into a place of their own. His compositions tend to feature urban scenes with a single featured character. Often a mysterious atmosphere with rain or fog. I encourage you to view his portfolio as you will be experiencing artwork unlike any other. Adrian is a master of his craft and has complete control over any scene with his expert post processing skills.
Ken is one of 1X's top portrait photographers. He will take you back in time and show you the beauty of another century. He does so with mastery of the arts and unique mood. His characters gaze back at you as if they are begging to tell you something, though you can only assume and wonder. This deep feeling resonates within each work. A strong emotional connection with the viewer is created time after time.
When I saw Zachar's nude photography for the first time, my jaw dropped. I knew instantly this was a very special artist. I have seen very few images of this style that could come close to the quality of his. His style and composition are unparalleled. What a joy to view this portfolio and for Zachar to share his work with us.
Before you open PhotographerNL's portfolio, prepare yourself. This imagery will take you down a dark road of emotion, toil, heartbreak, and defeat. PhotographerNL's work is incredibly powerful. His vision brings emotion to a visible, almost palpable level. Each work is so moving, you forget it's a photo and become entrenched in their raw, gritty passion.
BJ's street and documentary photography brings us on a journey to another world. She shows us with great composition, the culture of many places. She is talented in several styles, but no matter what, you can expect her to find the moments that take our breath away or capture the small window of time that lets us have a personal connection with the subject.
Peter has solidified himself here as one of the top black and white landscape photographers. His work is rivaled by few and his style is unique. There is something so magical and special about each of his compositions that so many of us struggle to achieve. Peter gives us insight into that vision, blowing us away with each piece.
Jef's work could be the face of modern architecture photography. His unique perspective, pinpoint accuracy, and masterful post-processing show us what perfection in this genre looks like. For top quality fine art architecture, look no further than Jef's portfolio.
Barbara's work can only be explained by her unique vision for composition. No one else can achieve what she achieves because of the special vision and connection she has with her art. Each work is so special and filled with emotion that I am sure runs deep in her veins. She is one of the friendliest members of 1x, no doubt. Please take the time to study her images carefully, they are truly incredible.
Harry is one of 1x's amazingly talented architecture photographers. His portfolio shows a study of patterns, lines, light, and color. Mind boggling compositions are executed with perfection. His work shows a strong understanding of the complex nature of architecture which he skillfully controls with his excellent vision.
Raymond is an internationally known and awarded photographer. His work focuses on the beautiful landscape of Iceland. After many years of shooting he has reached a very high level of skill in his artwork which he puts on display for us here at 1x. Very few are able to capture the beauty of nature as Raymond has.
Jan has several styles and various subject preferences which he shoots with expertise. His architectural photography is particularly astounding. Moody high contrast with black and whites and stunning shades in color. His perspective and eye for geometry and lines is astounding.
There is so much to say about this very special duo. Two artits who have teamed up to create some of the most amazing compositions of the digital age. Their works are so incredibly complex and detailed, one may spend an entire day analyzing and studying a single piece. DDiArte defines the power of technology in the digital age, supported by an absolutely mastery of the human body and the arts. I can always revisit their portfolio to find something new and exciting. I hope you will share this same enjoyment.
Quite quickly upon opening Frank's portfolio you realize a theme. Church. Frank's '100% Church' series is the reason why you need to visit his page. These aren't just snap shots of the inside of a cathedral. They are careful planned, shot, and composed pieces of artwork. Frank utilizes a 10.5mm fisheye lens, a 360x180 degree shot pattern, specialized equipment, stitching software and superior skill to create these magnificent compositions. I have not seen another photographer with the ability to produce such a remarkable 360 degree projection. This series is one of the most phenomenal on all of 1x.
Welcome to the very special and whimsical mind that is Ben Goossens. Again, a photographer who has created their own nich on 1X by perfecting their vision and craft. Ben falls into his own interesting category, combining montage and surreal elements. Sometimes we are confused and scratching our heads trying to understand his thought process, others we are immediately awestruck by the wonder. Either way, you can expect to be taken on quite an adventure by this gentlemen's work.
Adrian's creative work is easily recognizable by its animated, surreal nature. His shooting and processing techniques are unmatched. The scenes often include several characters interacting with their environment in a comical manner. Just looking at his work you know he puts many hours of work into each piece. They are incredibly detailed and complex. Each work is a masterpiece of modern digital photography.
Peter is an architectural photographer who shows excellence in photographing the interior of structures. Often his images include a single small character that draws the viewer's eye through the frame and creates perspective and curiosity. My favorite subjects of his are stairwells and arches where he shows complete mastery of the scenery.
Sus has a massive portfolio with incredible content. His landscape images in particular stand out as the stars of his portfolio. His eye for color in his compositions is incredible, as they paint the scenery of each image. You will also find he has found time to master the art of still life, architecture, and portraiture as well.
Marina Cano
Marina's portfolio is a tightknit group of jaw dropping nature images. You can see a lifetimes work in each composition. These rare and amazing moments are captured by one of the top nature photographers on 1X and shared for us all to enjoy.
Tatiyana's still life works blow me away every time I visit her portfolio. Each piece feels like an oilpainting which she has accomplished with superb lighting and post processing. Her understanding of still life scenes and ability to execute are unparalleled on 1X.
Sauco's work is shocking in multiple ways. First he hits you with impossible and unimaginable scenes of human interaction with their body. Then with perfection, he creates an incredible composition. His understanding of lighting, subject interaction, and post processing are beyond the minds and skill of many. His ability to create these twisted, eye opening scenes is unmatched.
Peter's work may rival some of the best portrait photographers of our time. From what I have heard, his shoots are like stepping onto a movie set. He has an entire crew working to compose the piece! Very few of us have the ability to do this but Peter shows us what can be achieved. As with many of the other artists on this list, Peter's work is recognizable without seeing his name attached to it. If you are a portrait photographer looking to learn from one of the best, this portfolio may be the one to visit.
You'll hear from us whenever we have news to share.
