What you will learn in this course.

Join Hasselblad photographer and visual storyteller John Alexander for a conversation around his project Generations. Spurred by an enduring sense of exploration, adventure photographer John Alexander travelled to one of the least densely populated regions on Earth – the western reaches of Mongolia – to trace the traditions that lay at the heart of Kazakh culture and to capture the characters that form the fabric of their community.

This immersive project began in the bustling capital of Ulaanbaatar, from where John headed west, skirting the fringes of Siberia to the north, before finally arriving within the desolate plains of the high Altai and the western reaches of the country.

Given the tactile nature of this ‘Generations’ project, and needing to travel light, John chose the size and portability offered by the Hasselblad X1D-50c to capture his journey. Offering exceptional image quality and dynamic range, its simplicity of use enabled John to focus on the subject and the moment, rather than the system.

In this exclusive webinar, John will talk through the images and detail his experiences from the project, with the opportunity for the audience to ask questions along the way.
