SOMETHING MORE
I love the first touch of every new issue we publish. I am always overly excited for the day when the big parcel from the printing company arrives and I got to see our latest issue in material form. I can´t even describe how I feel when I flip through pages, see all the beautiful photos and all the work we have put into making this happen. It is like a little miracle. Something which was just a digital file is now in my hands, feels great and smells amazing. This is why I do it. I used to work for one magazine, a couple of years back, as a managing editor. I have been always among the first few people to hold every new issue in the hands. Needless to say, I was always running to the newsstand down the street to just look at the magazine sitting there between all the others, waiting for people to buy their own copy. It felt good. It felt real. Like I am actually part of something amazing. One year later, when the owner decided to stop printing and go solely online, I felt devastated. It was no longer exclusive. It was no longer something exciting. Suddenly it was just another magazine you can read online, among twelve thousand others. Just another shared link you saw on your Facebook wall. Shortly after that, I quit the job. Someone said it somewhere - „Being published means being printed.“ I am really not sure whose words was that maybe I overheard it in some meaningless movie or read it in some random book. Either way, I agree with the quote. Perhaps I am old school, but I believe that print is not dead. Magazines and books are still a considerable part of our lives. I love new technology and how easy you can access everything online, but the added value of the printed version is just indescribable. Reading my lines and seeing my pictures in a printed magazine, is for me worth more than one hundred online articles and my photographs all over the internet. I am happy to see that books, magazines and even old film cameras are coming back to fashion. Fingers crossed they are going to stay with us forever. This is was we have missed something more than just digital files. We are doing our best every month to bring you high-quality print version of ELOQUE. That always has been and always will be the main goal for our team. This is the value we offer, stunning printed magazine full of your photographs which deserve to be shown off in the best way possible. If you are reading these lines from your own printed copy, I want to say THANK YOU for your support and for appreciating the good old-fashioned style. I hope you will enjoy reading this issue. PS: don´t forget to smell the pages!
