Ok, I usually don't do it, but this time, I'd liked to play with black/white and hyperfocal, just for an homage to someone who I can not even mention, but someone I want to thank for his infinite work and inspiration which made me fall in love with landscape photography of american parks.
"Sou, sou desse jeito e não mudo
Na roça nós tem de tudo
e a vida não é mentira
Sou, sou livre feito um regato
Eu sou um bicho do mato
Me orgulho de ser caipira"
(Joel Marques/Maracaí)
As we head into the long Thanksgiving Day weekend, I for one have many reasons to be thankful, one of course has been the opportunity to meet each of you. Thank you for your support and may you all have a fantastic holiday.
From the 2011 archives. I took this shot on a trail in Utah, somewhere between Park City and Heber. It was a colorful day, but I thought this one looked better in black and white.
These beach huts on Brighton seafront are usually photographed from the front to show off their colourful doors. The background is far cleaner when shot from behind.
After the rain the air is sweet
With glist`ning pools beneath my feet
Raindrops dripping down from the eaves
Teardrops slipping off shining leaves
And silken webs with crystals strung
Which span across the ivy hung
Around the trellised arbours green
A shimm`ring, luminescent scene
After the rain has kissed the earth
So Mother Nature brings new birth
Flowers to bloom with life anew
After the rain the sky is blue
After the rain comes a fresh dawn
After the rain new hope is born
After the rain has touched my soul
After the rain I shall be whole
