ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The image titled “Levante Calma” captures the Rock of Gibraltar in a black and white photograph. The distinctive rock formation is enveloped in dense mist, swirling around its peak, creating an ethereal and dramatic effect. The contrast between the dark, rugged textures of the rock and the soft, flowing nature of the fog adds to the visual appeal. In the background, a faint silhouette of a mountain range is visible under a cloudy sky, contributing to the depth and scale of the scene.

AUTHOR
I'm Luca, also known as The Lotophagoi

The name Lotophagoi comes from ancient Greek and means lotus eater (lōtophágoi), that's the name of a race of people from Homer's epic poem the „Odyssey“, living on an island dominated by the lotus tree.
It's one of my favorite stories from Homer's poem „Odyssey“, because its a story about the grim side of the human psyche, but also a story about passion and the psychedelic experience (derived from the Greek words ψυχή psychḗ 'soul, mind' and δηλείν dēleín 'to manifest', with the meaning "mind manifesting).
These are topics that interest me artistically. My art and photography reflect these themes, with the intention of revealing a part of the human psyche to the viewer through photography.
