Lisbon Story: first steps through the metropolis of Ulysses
Ulysses, once sailed through the Pillars of Hercules, founded his city on the Atlantic shores: Ulyssippo, the actual Lisbon. The capital of Portugal is a vibrant, multi-layered metropolis, packed with people and sardines in its delicious restaurants. Stroll up and down, above and belove the city with this first set of “the other postcards” from Lisbon. Pictures shot through the city center, at and from the elevator of Santa Justa
Pictures organized in a table to give you the flavor of the city: click each picture to zoom into details!
Spring as you can’t see, but plants do…
The following pictures are shot with a far-red filter on a 16-35 mm wide angle mounted on my Nikon D800. White means presence of far-red light, black means absence of far-red light. Click each picture to enlarge.
Outside of our far-red opaque houses and offices …
.. a triumph of far-red light is reflected by plants flooded with the Spring sun!
The only shadows in such far-red radiance days: our footpaths and the cloudless sky…
The last far-red light blades cut the Botanical Garden of Zürich before sunset.
After the positive experience 2014 at Photobastei, I am dreaming about a new art exhibition in 2015 with this new series and more to come. If you are interested or know about such opportunities, please write artborghi@gmail.com or contact me through my blog here
