A new issue of the magazine Victor by Hasselblad is out but if you're not a subscriber you can register for free and read archived issues at http://online.victorbyhasselblad.com/en/magazine-/22008.aspx .
Also of interest - the last page of the online magazine (page 72) shows that they are calling for submissions: "Send us five images that show us who you are. Inspire us and we'll offer you a unique platform to reach out to the world." http://www.victorbyhasselblad.com/en/portfolioverifyemail.aspx

Page 54 has an interesting interview with Christian Norgard, Hasselblad's new Photographer Relations Manager who is in part responsible for Hasselblad's "Masters" Contest. The contest now accepts all medium and large format images for submission - to truly determine the "Master" (rather than only accepting submissions shot on Hasselblad equipment). www.hasselblad.com/masters for the Master 2009 Awards contest (deadline December 31, 2008).
The Masters 2008 book includes a category for "Upcoming" awarded to August Bradley http://www.hasselblad.com/masters-2008/upcoming----august-bradley-.aspx (http://www.augustbradley.com/) . He has only been shooting since 2004 when he left a corporate job to become a photographer. This is of particular interest to me since I left the corporate world the same year to start studies in photography here in SF. I am going to see if I can't wrangle an interview with him for an upcoming post! Check out his images. He has definitely defined a "look" for himself - very illustrative photos that walk a fine line between photography and illustration. It's sort of like looking through a 3D graphic novel. Punchy colors, futuristic/bizarre locations with perfect/beautiful people. Definitely worth a look-see.
