My
first contact with photography was during my childhood.
My father used to let me play around with his
wonderful Kodak with Schneider lens, which I still
keep as a family souvenir. Later, I became passionate
about the black and white dark room, where I've spent
much of the little time left over from my absorbing
job as a musician. The discovery of digital editing
has, however, allowed me to accomplish projects I
didn't know how to do with traditional methods.
The
majority of the works exhibited here are based on
black and white negatives which were later manipulated
with well known editing software.
Generally,
in the studio, I use either a Zenza Bronica 6x7 or a
Nikon F4, although I'm starting to work with a digital
Sony F707 from which I expect to get good results.
