{My Pittoresca Amazon}
These are two photographs originally taken in analogue that I took in the 90s in Alto do Rio Negro, in the Brazilian Amazon.
They are good examples of what and how IGAPÓS are, which means FLOODED FOREST.

{Brazilian Cowboy}
from my book RURAIS (rural workers) (Ed. Origem. São Paulo Brazil 2020)
(PHOTO: cowboy in the rural area of Desemboque, MG – Brazil. 2019)
But, this photo (which really moves me every time I look at it again) could be in a book that was and continues to be a dream of mine that would be called BRAZILIAN COWBOYS. Who knows, maybe one day it will be published…
IN TIME: the photographer of French origin, Anouk Krantz (@anoukmassonkrantz – on Instagram), but living in the USA, recently published a fabulous book (my dream book) called: AMERICAN COWBOYS.
[hauntings – my newest photography book]
{photography book Hauntings: SALE}
It is with great pleasure that I announce the launch and sale of my photography book HAUNTINGS (ASSOMBRAÇÕES) bilingual: Portuguese & English) – an independent production by me in partnership and curated by Roberto Cecato / Studio Imaginar (FotoWeb Academy, São Paulo, SP-Brazil) – which, based on the link in my LI (integrated store), can be, from now on, purchased for a short period as part of a launch offer (see the link below).
For almost 2 years this project was built and properly managed, matured, going through several stages that only those who have already published a book (and even independently) know what it means (a lot of sweat, but also a lot of satisfaction and growth as a photographer and person).
The final result is now public for anyone who wants to appreciate it.

RURAL WORKERS
“The simple men and women of the countryside who live from the land and for the land on their small rural properties and many others who shed their sweat daily in labor on other people’s properties and businesses are those who know the true value of the land, love the land , love their places. They are the authentic, anonymous and invisible heroes and heroines and, truly, the strong of this country”
