\"Banner-6-Years-Hipstography\"<\/a><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

It was on 29th of December 2012 - precisely 6 years ago - that Hipstography first saw the light of day, so it\u2019s anniversary day here! It\u2019s a rather atypical anniversary, though, as it marks a bit of a turning point in the site\u2019s life. As for me, I have dedicated every spare moment of my free time \u2013 and more \u2013 over the past six years to Hipstography. All from a place of pure passion for a phone application that radically changed my, and a few million others\u2019, perception of photography: Hipstamatic. However, despite that passion still being alive and kicking, I have to slow down the pace\u2026 I\u2019m sure many of you know that life won\u2019t hesitate to throw you a curve ball, when given half a chance. Here\u2019s a little background\u2026<\/h4>\n

I became a vegetarian over 20 years ago and have been vegan since 2017, simply out of the love I feel for other animal species. I have always been quite vocal about the vegetarian lifestyle and advocating the end of the daily massacre of millions of sentient beings. The past few years have led me to become more of an activist for the animal cause. I, loudly and proudly, claim my antispeciesism<\/span><\/a> and my activism has become a fundamental part of my life. I can\u2019t possibly look back and I\u2019m often left feeling that I could do so much more. I\u2019ve been a member of \"Anonymous for the Voiceless<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\" (A.V.) for over a year now. Anonymous for the Voiceless is an international organization that strongly advocates antispeciesism and that requires - and deserves - focused energy and commitment. Along the same lines\u2026 I\u2019m also venturing into the world of vegan cuisine, with a few projects weaving their way around my brain\u2026 this also needs my attention and time.<\/p>\n

\"6-Years-Hipstography-AV\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So, I really can\u2019t spend all of my free time on Hipstography<\/strong><\/em> anymore; I\u2019ll just tone it down a bit. The site will of course still be there, albeit with fewer articles than I used to publish.\u00a0If you have series (combos<\/strong> or portfolios<\/strong>) you\u2019d like to throw out there, don\u2019t hesitate to submit your work. You just need to publish them somewhere (an album of Facebook or Flickr, for example) and send us the link in a message.\u00a0The most straightforward way is still a message via the Hipstography Facebook page<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. You\u2019ll find all you need to know on the FAQ page<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

You might have noticed that there have, indeed, been fewer articles over the past few months and, in light of my rather hefty schedule, I am letting go of the Hipstography Awards<\/strong><\/em>. I have to admit that I\u2019m doing it with a heavy heart but I really don\u2019t feel like I have a choice in the matter. I\u2019m sorry but I\u2019m sure many of you will understand, being passionate people yourselves\u2026<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to find out more about the reality of other animal species in the real world, I\u2019d like to invite you to watch a few documentaries that have led millions of people into changing their dietary habits.<\/p>\n

Earthlings<\/a><\/span> -\u00a0Dominion<\/a><\/span> -\u00a0Conspiracy<\/span><\/a> -\u00a0The Food Choice<\/a><\/span> \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So\u2026 that was my very personal clarification of the situation and being I\u2019m the only captain at the helm of Hipstography<\/strong><\/em>, I felt like I owed it to you all to explain the lull in recent activity.\u00a0Maybe we should get back to the original subject of this article\u2026<\/p>\n

Hipstography\u2019s 6th Anniversary<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hipstography<\/strong><\/em>\u2019s anniversary coincides with the new year and it has become a tradition to have a retrospective of the past 12 months.<\/p>\n

\"facebook-John-S\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In 2018, Hipstography<\/strong><\/em> celebrated the most iconic element of the entire Hipstamatic<\/strong> catalogue: John S<\/strong>. You could say that John S<\/strong>. is the key representative of the Hipstamatic<\/strong> spirit. It\u2019s also the first lens we all used and the pictures are recognizable amongst thousands. The name is a tribute to John O Smith<\/em>, professor of Design to many of the Hipstamatic<\/strong> team while they were at college. It\u2019s also one the favorite lenses, if not THE favorite, among black-and-white photographers. Its versatility makes it one of the most indispensible lenses in the Hipstamatic<\/strong> catalogue and despite being the \"old man\" of the lot, it remains one of the most used lenses to date. Hipstography<\/strong><\/em> dedicated an entire section of the site to John S.: \"My name is S\u2026 John S.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/em>\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"facebook-Anita-Elle\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After having spotlighted Florian Bilges<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, Berlewen Jolixor<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, Lee Atwell<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and Polina Sarri<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, 2018 put Parisienne Anita Elle<\/strong> in the spotlight. Paris remains Anita\u2019s favorite subject and she has an uncanny ability to portray her hometown as few others can; her sensitivity and creativity become apparent in everyday scenes, on the streets, on terraces or in the metro. Welcome to La Vie en Rose<\/a><\/strong><\/span>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And that\u2019s not all\u2026 over 40 Combos<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and 30 Portfolios<\/strong><\/span><\/a> were published over the past twelve months and 2018 brought forth two more Hipstography collections<\/strong>: The Nostalgic Collection<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and The Hellenic Collection<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"The-Hellenic-Nostalgic\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For The Nostalgic Collection<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, we wanted to get back to the very essence of Hipstamatic<\/strong>, to what made us \u2018stand up and take notice\u2019 from the get-go: the exaltation of the vintage effect. It\u2019s a bit of a tribute to our parents and grandparents who left us their dust-covered old pictures, found at the bottom of a box, often tarnished by time with faded colors but also undeniably charming. These three new combos were concocted by a team of dedicated and talented Hipstographers: Polina Sarri, Lara Khatchikian, Kathleen Magner Rios, Lori Hillsberg <\/strong>and Stavros Dimakopoulos<\/strong>.\u00a0Welcome to Eleanor<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, Norma<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and Lizzy<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"The-Nostalgic-Collection-Trio-ok\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Hellenic Collection<\/strong><\/span><\/a> was borne from a different dynamic and process compared to the other Hipstography combo collections. I was fortunate enough to spend a few days in Athens, in August 2018, in the wonderful company of Polina Sarri, Stavros Dimakopoulos <\/strong>and Mario Estrada<\/strong>. I have them carte blanche, with only one requirement: come up with a combo that captures the summer of 2018. The result is four fabulous combos: Empedocles<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, Pythagoras<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, Thales<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and Gorgias<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"The-Hellenic-Collection-4-combos\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And lastly - credit given where credit is due \u2013 a massive thank you to the entire team at Hipstamatic<\/strong> for the delight they\u2019ve been spreading for the past nine years. Most of all\u2026 thank YOU for your genuine support since 2012! I repeat myself but I will continue to say it: Hipstography<\/strong><\/em> would never have become what it is without you!<\/p>\n

Hipstography<\/strong><\/em> wishes everyone a wonderful new year, 2019! A Hipsta New Year to all of you!<\/strong>
