Interview With The 2022 London Photography Awards Platinum Winner \u2013 Lucia Drietomsk\u00e1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q1. Can you introduce yourself and talk about how you got into photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My name is Lucy and I am a photographer from Slovakia. I have been involved in art since I was a child, thanks to the artistic family I come from. It started with dogs in the settlement, cats in the garden, animals in the zoo and reached lions, tigers, wolves and other animals in private farms. Animal photography fascinated me since childhood, but for a long time I was just an observer in seclusion. As a child, I took a few photos of my dog with a film camera called Practica, but it wasn’t until high school that I decided to deepen my interest and put it into practice. So in 2005 I started with a dog photo. At that time, there were not as many good and high-quality photographers as there are now, so I thought that learning on my neighbours\u2019 dogs would be a great motivation. To my surprise, the photos were a success and several people started paying me for the photos so that I could get a better technique, as I took photos with a compact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. Where did you study photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It wasn’t quite a study of photo. I studied fine arts at a high art school in Ko\u0161ice (Eastern Slovakia), where there was also a department of photography. That was my first contact with real photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. Do you remember your first shot? What was it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is really hard question, because I started making photos 16 years ago. But I think it was photo of my first dog, dachshund Sandy. She was my biggest muse, inspiration and great model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q4. What equipment do you use?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started 16 years ago with a Nikon D3000, that I got from my parents for school. Then I switched to the D7100, and after eight years of finding out that I wanted to take photos of dog sports and wildlife, I switched to the Nikon D500. All the time, I used objectives from Nikon and Tamron. Two years ago, I got a Nikon D850 and started with Sigma Art objectives, and this year I change all my equipment for a Sony Alpha A1 camera with Sony 135mm GM and Sigma ART 35mm DG DN objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me this photo is the circle of life in its purest form. I think the covid situation in 2020 was really great for world\u2026 (Read more at London Photography Awards<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
