Montemor-o-Novo, Portugal, seen with a 8x10 inches Gandolfi Precision Camera

..










These images were made recently, using my 8x10 inches Gandolfi camera, loaded with Fomapan sheetfilm. To develop the negatives, on a Jobo CPP2 processor, I used Kodak D-76 or Adolux ATM 49 developers. I used an Epson Perfection 4990 to scan the negatives.
Sorry, I am not that good at scanning film...

Álvaro Siza - Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea, Santiago de Compostela



I think that I don't need to introduce Mr. Siza. He is a well-known and highly-regarded portuguese architect. He has several works around the globe, and I had the privilege of photographing several of them. I will post some of these photographs in a regular basis. For a start, I have choosed a work built in one of my prefered iberian towns: Santiago de Compostela.

I made these images in 9x12 / 4x5 inches Kodak Ektachrome sheetfilm, using a Sinar f2 camera.

Mies van der Rohe - Neue National Galerie, Berlin



I think that my documentation of works by the late architect Mies van der Rohe, surely belongs to the most important work I have done in Architectural Photography. So, every now and then, I will post some of the photographs I made of his buildings. It is my intention, to show them the best way that I can for you to enjoy them. Please respect my copyrights and don't use them without my permission.

These photographs were made in 8x10 inches Kodak Ektachrome film, using a Gandolfi Precision Camera, with various Rodenstock and Schneider large format lenses. I used a Gitzo tripod and a Gossen Lightmeter.
