I started shooting in 2013, at age 53, on a family trip to Patagonia, Chile.
Months later, one of the photos I took on this trip won the bronze medal in the international competition Brasília Photo Show.br>
I am a civil engineer, and shapes, lights, and shadows seduce me sometimes more than the subject of the photo.br>
Photography connects and expands the feelings of those who photograph and visualize the image, giving their own interpretation.br>
The essay Machu Picchu (A Personal Journey) was done in two moments: morning and late afternoon, when, alone on the site, away from the morning crowds, I could perceive the energy of the place and feel transported to a past still so present in the buildings.
