Here is the completed 18 images from my trip to Lençóis Maranhenses national park in Brazil last May. I don’t intend to add it to the portfolio section of my website as yet, as I wish to work on most of the portfolios for last year over the coming months, and then create a brand new page for 2022.
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy looking at these. I am running a tour there this coming May and have a couple of spaces left, if you like the simple / abstract nature of the work in this landscape. It’s a beautiful place to be.
All the images here were shot on Fuji Velvia film (and desaturated in the edit stage). The colours can be more vibrant in Lençóis, but I was going for a more dramatic look to the work this year. I feel I have been working with bright luminance for some time and wished to return to some darker tones). All the films were processed at home in my development machine. I am so delighted with my decision to process my own films in future, and now feel as though I have filled in the last gap to the entire lifecycle of image creation. I am entirely in control of the process from capture to print.
