Nikonownermagazine.Com 1 NIKON OWNER RECOMMENDS 1 nikonownermagazine.com nikonownermagazine.com 1 NIKON OWNER RECOMMENDS Martin Stones Gypsy Mother and Child. “Taking images of people living in extreme poverty is never easy. No less so with this image of a Gypsy Mother and Child in central Transylvania. I was taken to a family home that was part of a proud gypsy village. The family make beautiful baskets for a living and this is their entire world; one room served as a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and workroom. It initially felt very uncomfortable witnessing the poverty around me, which seemed to border on voyeurism, but I spent some time sitting on the earth floor with the older children, letting them use my camera and showing them the results. We had an empathy, a connection, one that you can only appreciate if you have respect and interest for one another. From that empathy came this image.” Equipment: Nikon D300 AF-S 18-105mm Nikkor f/3.5-5.6G ED Image taken at 18mm f/3.5 1/20 sec. Martin Stones is a former Royal Marine with a lifetime interest and passion for photography and a genuine interest in other people’s lives and their surroundings. He has travelled extensively around the world, always with a camera to hand and a constant ambition to learn about and understand other cultures. He says, “Our landscapes, religions and cultures may be different, but fundamentally we are all the same, with similar aspirations”. As a photographer, he works hard to capture the image in camera and avoid post-production manipulation. 2 nikonownermagazine.com 2 CONTENTS MAGAZINE OF THE NIKON WORLD • ISSUE 68 • 2020 NAMIBIA AND A SAFARI THAT, 06 STRICTLY SPEAKING, WASN’T by John Archer-Thomson John Archer-Thomson and his wife Sally return to Namibia to complete an exploration of the northern part of country that they had been unable to finish in their original visit in 2015.
