Postcards from Busan • Busan is a coastal city in the southeast of South Korea, known for its beaches, busy port and views of the sea framed by hills. It feels very different from Seoul, with the ocean never far away. People come here to walk along the shoreline, explore traditional markets and take in wide views from bridges, temples and coastal paths. The rhythm of Busan is shaped by the sea, from its fishing harbours to its lively waterfront districts.

When Printing Becomes a Choice • As photography becomes increasingly digital, printing is no longer automatic. It is intentional. This month’s issue explores the technologies, materials, and market shifts shaping the future of photographic print.

Printing Photographs: From Silver Halide to Substrates of the Future • For decades, photographic printing has evolved quietly, often overshadowed by cameras, sensors, and screens. Yet behind every meaningful print lies a complex interplay of technology, chemistry, substrates, and market forces. Few understand this ecosystem as deeply as Ina Hilker, who spent more than 37 years at Felix Schoeller—one of the world’s most influential print media manufacturers, headquartered in Germany and established in 1895. From the golden era of silver halide* to today’s inkjet, electrophotography (toner), and thermal technologies, Ina has witnessed, and helped shape, the transformation of photographic substrates and global print markets.
