I write this post not based on deep knowledge about Kubrick’s work because I am far from having it, but much more guided by my admiration for the work of this great artist and the emotion that his photos make me feel.

‘Moriyamando’.
‘Moriyamando’ is a new series of photographs that I have been working on for the past few days. The name of the series is a pun that I make (and that only makes sense in the Portuguese language) with the name of the great Japanese photographer, Daido Moriyama, whom I admire and draw inspiration from in my street photography. Continue reading “‘Moriyamando’.”
Amazon in Black & White
Here are some shots of the Amazon (Manaus, Belém and Ilha de Marajó) taken in April 2012. I am suspicious in saying this because I love black & white photography. But, the strength of black & white is apparent, even though they are photographs of a region where there is a lot of color. Continue reading “Amazon in Black & White”
In honor of film photography
After more than 30 years I am returning to film photography. I do not know if it is to stay, but I am back … I have the impression that it will live well with my digital photography that I have been practicing for some 20 years. Continue reading “In honor of film photography”
“the real is not at the exit or at the arrival but in the middle of the crossing.” (joão guimarães rosa)
This thought is (very) valid for me in photography. The (many) trials (and errors) are (most of the time) more interesting than the end result. Continue reading ““the real is not at the exit or at the arrival but in the middle of the crossing.” (joão guimarães rosa)”

“Jujuy Palette” in black and white. Part Ia.
I now share black and white photos of northwestern Argentina – a beautiful region with stunning landscapes.
This series was called “Palette Jujuy” where I try to express the strength and emotion of the multicolored hills that are in the region of Pumamarca. Continue reading ““Jujuy Palette” in black and white. Part Ia.”
In praise of black and white photography
There are many phrases already spoken about black and white photography, but this one by Robert Frank summarizes and symbolizes everything for me:
“Black and white are the colors of photography, which symbolize the alternatives of hope and despair to which mankind is forever subjected.” Continue reading “In praise of black and white photography”
Images of a profound Brazil that I miss so much
A feeling that has been on me for the last months: ‘feeling of a profound Brazil’.
These are images of people, customs of life (personal and collective), beautiful untouched rural landscapes or small-scale farming, all very authentic, where men and women work hard day by day and live a simple life far from the sophistication of famous urban and industrial centers. Not surprisingly, they are first and foremost very happy.
