Luka Fonda shares his epic movements

Luka Fonda had five great pictures published on 8a last week and here is he with his crew that made it happen. Klemen Becan, Domen škofic, Luka Fonda, Mina Markovic and Gorazd Hren. During the big Mind Control day he jumared the 50 meters three times! What is the best thing of being a photographer and how is a normal day at the crag for you? Traveling, nature, passion, good people, adventure... be there when best athletes do an amazing performance... and many more things. As a photographer I am staying in crag with guys all day, sometimes also some time before and after (to check up different angles, lights, fix the ropes and other factors important for photography). I also discuss with climbers about their projects and plans, what they are climbing during the day and try to follow their sends. But sometimes, especially by those guys, it is really hard to follow - one is sending his/her hardest project, during another one is probably sending his hardest on-sight. Well, there are also cases when one just go 'to check up the moves' and then send the route. So, you need also to know a bit how to read between the lines and be ready 100% for every try. For me, the hardest are onsights, because when an athlete do it 1st try, I need to do same by photo. By projects, story is different. I can follow the progress and observe the moves interesting to catch. After coming back to apartment second part of work just stars. Copy and check all the pictures, choose best ones, followed by editing and publishing… and answering questions from 8a.
