Donkey With Mask

These shots were taken with a 35mm camera unlike most of the photos on this blog that were taken with 6x6 film. The donkey is wearing a fly mask probably to protected an infected eye,

Palm Tree Shadow

This shot was taken just after sun rise in September. The sunlight was almost horizontal and projected the shadow of the tree directly onto the wall.

The AVE comes to Antequera

A new branch of Spain's fantastic high speed train system, the AVE, is on its way to Antequera. Here is a series of shots taken of the excacations works early one Sunday morning.

The new darkroom is now up and running and the work for the exhibition 'Dos Calles' is complete. So now I can start with some new work. Here is a PDF of some shots taken around the farm where we live.

Malaga Re-Shoot

Just before the move to Antequera I took a walk through Malaga and made re-shoot of some favorite details. Click here for a PDF of the series.

Home in Ronda

Dear friends of mine build their own house in Ronda, Andalucia. With the help of a stylist they designed the house themselves. Its surrounded by an olive yard and it's got amazing views over the valley and surrounding mountains. When we met up with them a few weeks ago to see their new home, I decided it had to be photographed. So last Wednesday I headed out there again and thought it was a great idea to try out some new stuff and revive the Hosemaster (lightpainting machine from the filmdays). Instead of using the actual Hosemaster I used a single flash, remotely controlled. I made a whole range of exposures from before to after sunset to have a leeway of base- exposure and sky. After sunset I started to 'paint' with my flashlight. Every flash is a new frame and both my flash and camera are fired remotely. In the studio I loaded the frames I needed in photoshop, and made al my adjustments. And slowed down my computer that much that I could go shopping and wash the car while the file was saving. Little did I know that the file was going to be enormous. I ended up with 5GB! At the end, since a Tiff-file cannot be larger then 4GB, I had to devide my file into 3 pieces and save them separately. I think the result is really nice though. Soon I am going to shoot the interior....
