This year's major photographic events

The year 2020 will be punctuated by several must-see events in the world of photography. Following is a brief overview of some of them, from the most highly anticipated to the most unique.

Nelly Rau-Häring: Germany from East to West

A world traveler, cab driver, and teacher, Nelly Rau-Häring is, above all, a photographer. Born in Switzerland in 1947 she made Berlin her home in the mid-1960s. Like no one else, she recorded the city’s life, boredom, joie-de-vivre, struggle, and exuberance. A selection of her photos of West and East Berlin spanning over four decades are showcased in at f3–freiraum für fotografie in Berlin.

Wild beasts in the city

The exhibition Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2019 on view at the Museum of Natural History in London brings together a collection of photos of wild animals pictured in their natural habitat. These images are traces if intimate encounters, offering us a glimpse into a mysterious world as seen through the lens of photographers who share deep respect for animal life.

Steven Smith, The Call of the Suburbs

In Your Mountain Is Waiting, Steven Smith studies the nuances—and absurdities—of subdivision life.

Photographing the city at night

Night shooting is among the most complex tasks in photography. You will need to leave the comfort zone of the automatic mode and develop more advanced technical skills in order to capture the desired image. We will take a closer look at different ways of optimizing night images.

Blind's goal is to support photographic creation and invites all photographers to submit their portfolios. Send them to us at the following address: [email protected]
