About “Kinderdijk, Netherlands” and Rudy Ranke

“Fine art photography is what intrigues me even more than travel photography.

My main inspirations here are David Burdeny (whose work I discovered in 2008 and got me into fine art), Josef Hoflehner, Michael Kenna. Everything has to be right for this type of photo: the weather circumstances, the light… all in order to convey the peace and feel that is so characteristic of fine art photography.

It’s the long exposure while shooting and the dodge and burn technique in editing, together with minimalist compositions, clean lines, and strong shapes that make this photography so distinctive. I really feel I can use my perfectionism in this timeless genre. While I aim for a natural look for my travel and landscape photos, it is a whole other story for my fine art photos. I clean them up to the finest details and keep working on the photo until I really achieve the atmosphere I want the photo to have.

This involves a longer editing process and generally more both technical approach and artistic approach.”
