OK, ja sam Blanka, poznata i kao "Thatcherica" zahvaljujuci ekipi iz kluba i svojoj... Pa, osobnosti - da budemo kratki. 😀
Prirodnjak po prirodi, biolog po izboru. A roniti se jednostavno mora - pametnom dosta. 😉
Roniti sam konacno pocela 2011., a s obzirom da sam se i tad vec dugo bavila fotografijom, poceti se baviti podvodnom fotografijom bio je jednostavno nekako... prirodno. Evolucijski cak, haha! 🙂 I tako se na kopnu uglavnom samo polomim, a sumnja se da imam skrge, pa rekoh - zasto ne! Uz niz objava, izlozbi, nagrada i priznanja, od lokalnih do medunarodnih razina, neke od najznacajnijih su:
OBJAVE:
National Geographic Hrvatska
DigitalFoto Magazine
IZLOZBE, NAGRADE & PRIZNANJA:
Zagreb Salon – FIAP Ribbon Award (Fédération Internationale de l'Art Photographique)
Zagreb Film Festival
Motovun Film Festival
Zasad se ovo sve svodi na moju "kopnenu" fotografiju, iz jednostavnog razloga sto sam ukupno dvaput drzala fotoaparat pod morem (i vodom uopce)... Sto ce reci da nemam jos svoju opremu, nego sam zahvalna prijatelju koji mi je posudio njegovu da vidim hoce li se moja dva hobija medusobno voljeti jednako koliko ih ja volim. Rezultati su u prilozenoj galeriji, cini mi se da su se slozili i vise nego dobro... Sto pak nisu nimalo dobre vijesti za moj novcanik, jer izmedu toga i vec zapazenih plasmana i na natjecanjima u podvodnoj fotografiji, cini se da cu stvarno bolje-prije-nego-kasnije morati uloziti u vlastitu opremu!

So, I'm Blanka, also known as "Thatcher" thanks to my club friends and due to my... Well, personality, to keep a long story short. 😀
I'm a naturalist by nature, and a biologist by choice. Diving is simply a must, at least that's self-explanatory. 😉
I finally started diving in 2011, and since I've already been doing "land" photography for a while by then, taking on underwater photography was simply kind of... Natural. Evolutionary even, haha! 🙂 All I ever do on dry land is pretty much break various parts my body, plus I've been suspected to have gills anyway, so I gave in and gave it try! Alongside numerous publishings, exhibitions, awards and recognitions, from local to international levels, some of the most notable ones are:
PUBLISHED IN PRINT:
National Geographic Hrvatska

EXHIBITIONS, AWARDS & RECOGNITIONS:
Zagreb Salon – FIAP Ribbon Award (Fédération Internationale de l'Art Photographique)
Zagreb Film Festival
Motovun Film Festival
All of these regard my "land" photography, simply because Ive only held a camera underwater twice so far... Meaning I still do not own my own underwater photo gear, but am instead grateful to a friend for lending me his, so I can check out if my two hobbies would love each other as much as I love them. The results are in the gallery, it seems they're getting along more than great... Which in turn are definitiely not great news for my wallet - since it seems that, in between this and the fact I've already had some notable results in underwater photo contests as well, I will have to invest into my own gear sooner rather than later!
