Architecture has always been and will be a great subject for photography. It is one of the oldest types or genres of photography. It has always inspired and will inspire many photographers in the future for many, many years. Continue reading “The Many Possible Looks of Architecture”

“Embraced by the light” or “Why I love black and white photography”
This post was set up in celebration of my first anniversary of my first post on my WordPress site. Done exactly on December 1, 2018. In it I will try to express a very peculiar feeling that occurs when shooting and I hope you feel like me: feel embraced by the light. Blessed by the light. Purified by the light.

Multiple Subject Photography: A Brain Storming Exercise
Multi-subject photography may be the most complex language of photography in existence. The literature shows us that there are great masters in this photographic technique (see at the end a citation of great blog on the theme).

Black & White Landscapes: Magic and Beauty of Nature
Black and white photography is a photographic aesthetic that I use as a personal choice, not for aesthetics per se, but simply because I love it. Simply because shooting in monochrome allows me to get images that mirror my view of the world, the things I think, the things I like, what my life experience has taught me. This choice allows me to represent in my photographs my reality of the world and the things in it. Continue reading “Black & White Landscapes: Magic and Beauty of Nature”

Nature vs Man Made Architecture
When I am in the countryside it always comes to my mind that nature has its own architecture and how it is different from “man made architecture”. This short series tries to illustrate this. This is only an unfinished thought I have in my head. Continue reading “Nature vs Man Made Architecture”
Portrait of a Profound Brazil.
I have no doubt that there is a dreamer in us. One who sees the world with ‘other eyes‘. Who feels the world with ‘another soul‘.

Profound Brasil
“The real is not in the exit, nor in the arrival, it is available to us is in the middle of the crossing” (Guimarães Rosa, in Grande Sertão: Veredas)
“Profound Brasil” – In it, what you find yourself, are very simple people, but very rich in the soul. Rich for giving themselves to the maximum and in an extremely spontaneous and true way. They are also devoted to the intense dialogues and open smiles. They are sincere and authentic. Perhaps all this richness signifies the main virtues of these people who are estranged, isolated, body and soul (and by personal choice), from the great cities and their customs and ( many) mass addictions. The value of these people is not only perceived in these characteristics, but also expressed by the value given to time, that is, to the meaning and use of time. Continue reading “Profound Brasil”
Do not be afraid of the harsh light
If you are a dominant fan of ‘black and white’, like me, don’t be afraid of the harsh light of the harsh peak of the day …. come be happy with me! If you already knew, OK, but if you didn’t know, now you know …. Continue reading “Do not be afraid of the harsh light”
Artistic pleasures
I read very recently in an Eric Kim blog something that brought me to a feeling that has long abated me: what gives me pleasure in life? What pleasures are worth in life, or those that make them worth fighting for in life? Of course I refer to my life as a photographer, as an artist. Continue reading “Artistic pleasures”
The faces of men and women of the field
This is a subproject derived from my ongoing project called “RURALS”.
I want with this subproject to show the faces of rural workers, men and women, that I have been photographing for about 4 years. In some ways this subproject is like a record for the posterity of what rural workers were like in my adult years.
Unfortunately this is a record of the present times that does not include my time as a child and adolescence. But I will continue on this road in this project until the day my fingers can no longer press the shutter button on my cameras.
