Nude: Honorable Mention 2014 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
It was the second half of summer, when, dictate by the music, by a baroque ambient in an italian home, I started to take photos. A synergy between art and culture in black and white, with classical music in a climate sensual, engaging, passionate.
The photo was taken in last August in Italy.
It was used an Hasselblad 500cm, with Diastagon 150mm f4.
We used a Rollei RPX25, developed immediately with Rodinal (1+25 for 6'30'') and fixed with Agfa.
We were sitting on the sofa and piano, reading and playing. I turn myself and saw on the table near my camera last black and white film. We decide to made something that involved all the staff that we like: photography (I love cameras and taking photos, she loves be photographed), play piano, read, good place, relaxing and obviously, stay together.
AUTHOR
When i was children I remember my dad with an old yeshica, that he broke during a trip in south of Italy. I always be interested in photography, like my passion for the airplane, engine, painting and reading. While I was studying building engineering and after architecture, i bought my first camera, a TLR Walzflex. I get in love and I started to improve my knowledge by specific book and newspaper, in particular about the analogue system.
Today i use much more the hasselblad and nikon F, than my nikon d2x, because the passion and energy that I received after development in my lab. the negative are sometimes something incredible.
