PHOTOS
To find poetry from the window.
There are ways to frame on the street that simply are…street. You know what I mean.
Instant workshop on spotting irony on the street.
With my head in football, inevitable this month...and the selfie was calling...
The surreal that this city gives me is unique in the world…
This photo looks very much like a 1920s one, even though it clearly isn't. It is, in its approach, even if its genesis is more daring.
A photo so representative of the barrio...I had to post it.
I like the dynamism here, that moving towards me. Good light too.
This photo made me rethink exposure curves. It made me realize I don't like them, and from now on, I'm changing. Don't get me wrong, I think the image is a good shot, but I don't like the aesthetic I achieved. Too much underexposed protection, which doesn't fit my way of seeing and making photography. Good photo for the moment, but also a big "we're not there yet" that I say to myself.
I really like the dimension this photograph projects. I like the sense of space within the frame, I like the layers, which offer different levels of interpretation.
I( photographed for the lady style, of the symmetry between shirt and fan. Sometimes street photography is a matter of forms.
In my opinion, there are two things worth noting in this photo. The first is that aesthetics often prevail and dictate the content. For me, it has a nostalgic quality, bringing back memories of so many photographs I've loved and still love. And the second thing here is that my compositional choice was dictated by moving in a certain way, with my body and with the camera, to the point of positioning the elements in a way I find pleasing for the result.
THOUGHTS
I've been reclaiming my photography in an even more defined way than before. While in May the bulk of my work was dedicated to my editorial commitments, in June I had more freedom. My way of looking at the world is emerging more clearly. While making this selection I could notice I already have a few solid foundations. At the same time, I've included a photo here that made me think there are still some things I want to improve regarding the exposure of my photographs. It is a crucual topic to me because in search of my role as an author but also because I have a clear idea of how my photographs should turn out and I currently have to make do with certain conservative choices that my cameras make, especially the mirrorless.
This isn't a topic that's often discussed, but the advent of mirrorless cameras, especially the new generations of these cameras, has led to an ever-increasing trend toward computational photography, and therefore HDR-focused aesthetics. I don't even find it a coincidence that many photographers make underexposure their aesthetic proposition. Well, it disgusts me. To be honest, it pisses me off. Because that is not the photography I learned to love and my goal is to have an aesthetic that is as close as possible to the Kodak prints of the 80s. Yes, also in digital. So, plerase don’t say me to shoot film to fix it. I shoot film, but I want something similar also with digital. Not the same, but I think is possible to do something that gets close to the photography i love and not what I see today that I really hate. Excuse me for the rant. Thanks for reading this.
