My book is published! A chapter of life is closed.
I sincerely thank you, my dear followers.
I’ve been a photographer all my life, I’ve studied photography at the best colleges (FAMU, Prague and LCP, London) and took workshops from the greatest masters of our time (Martin Parr, Duane Michals, Zizola, Stephen Gill, Paul Graham, Calvin Grier, Mark Osterman,…). I even worked for a year also with Oliviero Toscani at Fabrica and James Mollison was my roomate. Olivia Arthur / Magnum was my classmate at LCP. Anyway, what I want to say is to shout from the top of my lungs, I’ve published the new book! And this book consists of everything that I know about photography and it tells the story about the path I was on for the past two years.
The book will be hardbound and it is available as a pre-order for another week. The purchase is possible through my website at https://www.borutpeterlin.com/shop/

Publishing my 3rd Art Book!
Dear readers,
I’m so proud to announce the publication of my 3rd art book! The followers of my channel saw me working on the project A New Earth in the last three years. Now the grand finale is coming in just 20 days. On the 25th of May 2022 I will have an exhibition opening with 35 carbon prints 40x50cm (16×20″) in oak frames 70x80cm (28×30″) plus my third art book will be published. The exhibition opening is on the 25th of May 2022 at 19h in Dolenjski muzej, Novo mesto, Slovenia. You are all invited!
The book can be pre-ordered with a really friendly price of 40 EUR on the link: https://www.borutpeterlin.com/shop/sh…
Very important: In the book I will express my gratitude to all my patrons and the buyers of my prints, because without their support it would be much more difficult to make my vision happen.

Linhof Technorama 6×17 / Waiting For the Sun / Vlog 123
In this vlog I’m waiting for the sun. I’ve learned a lot and what you’ve witnessed is how a new project is being formed. The images aren’t the project, but they are offering some solutions, pointing a direction to follow in my future work.
I’m off to Rome. This will be my first week of vacation this year. I love my work and as you can see, I am enjoying myself while working, so vacations are usually a burden for me. I might be the one who on his dead bed will regret not spend more time at work. Ha, ha, it’s funny, because it’s true. May the topshit be with you!

A New Earth Project / vlog#96
In this episode of the vlog, I’ve spend five days in the middle of the woodlands, on the hill with the name Far Away Hill (Daleč hrib), Kočevski rog in Slovenia.
In the following episodes I’ll talk more about the concept and the aesthetic of the project, but in this vlog, I wanted to be simple, focused on the beauty, no spoken words.
But here are few pointers for better understanding of my art. Inspired by the work of Ana Mendieta, I perform sort of rituals in the nature, using my body and 170 year old process called wet plate collodion photography. Huge inspiration is also the book of Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth.
Thank you for your attention, may the Topshit be with you!

Will Linhof Technorama replace the GoPro as an action camera?!?

Here is the answer you all have been waiting for.
Will Linhof Technorama replace the GoPro as an action camera?!?
To come to the end of this question that is bothering so many, I’ve made a camera test in a kayak! Enjoy and expect more topshit spreading from this direction.

This is NOT a Nikon D850 review vlog!
.
Dear followers,
This vlog is super eclectic. All my recent vlogs are eclectic, but I think with this one I’ve reached another level of “eclecticism”. Nevertheless I hope you will like it.
The work in atelier is progressing nicely. Lots of work, but beautiful things are being made. Today we’ve installed book shelves from oak wood and that’ll be in the next vlog. Anyway, I’m tired.
Next week I’m ordering Nikon D850, but until then I’ll be borrowing the camera from Nikon Slovenia. Thx Tomaž, Tomo and Rok!
Thank you Ted from The Art of Photography:

My new atelier! / Topshit Photography Vlog #37
My dearest followers,
this year 2018 is not slowing down and in this vlog I’m presenting to you my new space. It’s a former railway station freshly refurbished. The other location that I had was only for one year, so now this is the new place. It’s in Straža, the town where I have grown up.
Now I’m planning how to design the space, picking colors, looking for antique furniture. I’m planning to make few furniture pieces by myself. As a kid of 12+ years I loved the wood making process, so why not save some money and build stuff.
About the cottage in the vlog. I would love to buy it and although I could afford it, I am afraid I might get myself spread too thinly. Perhaps it’s time for crowdfunding? Perhaps it is, but it’s very likely that in half a year, it will be even better time. Perhaps I will get a partner or few of them and we can share ownership over the cottage. Everything is possible. But step at the time. My dear friend Damijan is a very successful businessman and he is sharing with me business secrets. Ones I was explaining him my projects, he told me that the successful businessman is the one who has the discepline to decide which project he/she will NOT do. I will eventually buy a cottage, perhaps this one, perhaps some other, but now it is not the time for it. Oh… I didn’t win lottery, we’ve sold our house, so…

Topshit Photography Vlog #30 – panoramas for Hotel Balnea
I’m sorry for not publishing almost whole month. I’ve done three big corporate jobs and with the earned money I’m planning to finance the publication of my book. A real photo book! And agreed to do two solo shows in two countries in January and February.
And I have not forgot about you, my patreons, I am publishing a calendar with images from my project Feels Like Home and hopefully you will receive it by the end of the year.
Lots to do before that. Thank you for your support! I hope you enjoy my latest vlog. Subscribe on my youtube channel and if you can, please support me through Patreon.com/borutpeterlin

An apocalypse and a Woodland Beyond Photography 2017 event
In this vlog I’m publishing two major things that happened to me. One is an ecological catastrophe when a recycling centre Ekosistemi caught fire. About half a million tons of plastic burned. I’m living about a kilometre away and we had to move away for two days until air came back. The drone shots were done illegally, without permission of authorities by my friend Manfred von Richthofen and the images were used by police, national TV, commercial TV, and almost all national newspapers and on-line media. On FB those images were shared more then 1000 times. Images were free of charge as long as the publication is dealing with the catastrophic event and about raising ecological awareness.
Second thing was the Woodland Beyond Photography event. This time was the second year in a row that we organised an artist retreat deep in woodland where we created what we do best – ART. It was great time away from civilisation, enjoying art and socialising. Next year we will make five day event, so book the dates between 25th and 29th of July 2018!
I thank the company of Gozdno gospodarstvo Novo mesto for their support and David Cutter music for his music. Doors’s music is copyrighted and the copyright owner will be payed too.
The whole show of Poletna scena on national TV is available on THIS LINK.
I THANK MY PATREONS for their support! Please consider a monthly tip for my videos. My goal is to publish videos weekly, perhaps few times a week and your help will be very welcome. Thank you!
