Vanda Ralevska

                                      1.

Originally from the Czech Republic Ralevska now lives in London.  She moved to England in 1997 and in 2011 abandoned commercial photography in order to pursue her own artistic feelings.  In 2012 she cofounded a community called Landscapes by Women and her work features on their website.  In 2015 she joined the Arena Photographers group and organised the Mistresses of Light exhibition in London's OXO Gallery with Beata Moore.

She describes herself primarily as a landscape photographer, although she does some impressionistic work.  She particularly enjoys working in soft pastel colours.  She enjoys writing poetry and there are examples of this on her website.

I enjoy the soft nature of the lighting she uses and like the way she employs long exposure times.  I particularly enjoy her more impressionistic work.
