Obrigado senhor, your work is on a constantly high level. The grey tones that the monochrome delivers are nice, yet I prefer your analogue work with the m's. Frank.
Thank you for your kind words. Please, think that I have been shooting film for decades. I had the Monochrom, lent by a friend, for about a week... Maybe I should give a little more contrast to the images?... They look nice in Light Room though, "published" it looks a little dull. Greetings, Rui.
Olá Rui, the contrast is fine; for my taste no correction necessary, as it reflects the (bright) lighting conditions by the time you took the pictures. Some of the places are very familiar to me as we spent time in and around Lisboa, Porto and Coimbra this summer. Hope to see more of your work soon. Best, Frank.
Born 1955 in Kuito (Silva Porto), Angola.
Photographer / Publisher.
Started my professional photographer career at the History of Art Institut (Kunsthistorishes Institut ) of the University of Heidelberg, Germany. Returned to Portugal in 1990 and, while doing studio and advertising work, specialized in Architectural Photography. I had my work published in numerous specialized books and magazines, both in Portugal and abroad. Álvaro Siza and Mies van der Rohe are only some of the names who have their work extensively documented. I own White & Blue, which I co-founded in November 2000.
(I closed down White & Blue in January 2013)
