EDITORIAL
The smallest month of the year is always the most productive for me. It was in this month that I was born and it is in this month that I make all the decisions that will have repercussions for the rest of the year.
Let's get down to the trip: from now on, HIVE PHOTO MAGAZINE will have 10 authors. The financial issues have been resolved. I will cover the costs of the platform (FlipHTML5) that supports the magazine. The rewards from HIVE are for investing in HIVE. That's the only way it makes sense.
This magazine aims to promote publications with a minimum of 10 photographs, which are consistent with each other and argue/support the portfolio concept.
The variety of perspectives, languages and techniques presented show the photographic wealth that is published in the different HIVE communities. This will always be the purpose of this magazine, to reveal heterogeneity.
Many other publications in February had the quality to be in the magazine, but these were the 10 that came onto my radar. Next time it could be you.
A heartfelt thank you to the authors featured here, for the quality of the work published and for the satisfaction it has given me to build the magazine.
See you in April with the March highlights.

OBJECTIVES OF THE MAGAZINE
- To encourage the publication of Portfolios (10 to 20 photographs).
- To make HIVE photographers visible to the “outside”, namely to galleries and photography magazines that are looking for authors on social media. Given that we are in web 3.0, interested parties (galleries and magazines) can negotiate directly with photographers without having to go through intermediaries.
- Attract more photographers to HIVE.
HELP WITH MY RADAR
If you're reading this publication and would like to see your work displayed in the magazine, please include the following in your post: #hivephotomag So help me with this task. HIVE is huge and I'm not there full-time. The hashtag would help me detect it more easily.
SPECIAL THANKS
@haastrecht Thank you very much for kindly providing the photographs for the cover and back cover. These are the kind of images, more graphic and not included in the portfolios, that I would like to see as a presentation of the magazine.
Looking closely at your work, I would like to invite and challenge you: be the one to design the next covers of the magazine. Deadline for submissions: the 25th of each month. Feel free to accept or not. HIVEfriends anyway.
