Because I have the proof. I published a book. A Blurb book, of course.
Last year I quit my job as an insolvency lawyer to get out of the system and do whatever I loved to do. And that was photography. But the spiritual journey started three years ago, and I came so far from the one that I was before this trip. Going from India to Cuba, and through Istanbul, East Europe and Morocco, I came to learn a lot about life, values and freedom. It was not just about pictures. I was not interested in the place in itself, but rather at hat that meant to me.
There are many ways in which I profit from this journey, and selling this book would be the least important one. What I am putting here is a package, because the text is very important also. It is like a key to the images. Actually, the text could be read in the blurb preview. Is not big.
And the pictures are most from my first page from my website. All of them shoot with 35mm camera, 35mm lens, fuji astia/sensia 400, and no interventions on the image at all.
One thing that I learned from this experience is that the ultimate joy of an individual is almost always a way of connecting to another person. And this book can help the ones that appreciated my website gallery. I myself have a big shelf packed with photographic books, and I strongly believe in the power of the printed image.
Each of the image of the book was putted in its position, by a reason, and all of them have something to offer beside what could be visible in the firs 25 seconds. They need some patience and some real looking and participating.
I have to admit that I was propelled ahead to print this book after I attended the Magnum Masterclass held in Brighton, when they teach us how to finish a project and how to make a book. And this book is the offspring of that experience.
