Me after hearing Tom Heaton saying “The tripod is the photographer’s best friend” on his latest video.

A puppet with wide eyes and a surprised expression is looking sideways.

A aproveitar as horas calmas para ver as fotos.

Two people are standing under a display of framed photographs in an art gallery with a tiled floor.Framed photographs are hanging in a well-lit gallery space with visible flooring and ceiling tiles.Framed photographs are suspended from the ceiling in a grid-like arrangement within an exhibition space.

Está oficialmente aberto o Exodus Aveiro Fest, com o tradicional bife com alho do Zico!

Still from this weekend’s Bairro do Grilo, or Bairro das Artes: a showcase of how arts could fill an empty and abandoned industrial complex in Lisboa. Hopefully won’t be a single event…

A person is walking between large industrial storage tanks in a facility.People are gathered in a room with artwork on the walls, and a small bicycle leans against a column.A silhouette of two people is seen through a corridor window with a row of windows on the right.A dimly lit restroom features three white sinks aligned under a rectangular mirror with a small pink flower sticker.A beige control panel is set against a green and white wall between two colorful murals, one featuring two figures and the other abstract shapes and faces.A silhouette of a person is visible behind a frosted glass partition with horizontal stripes.Two people stand in a dimly lit room with their shadows cast on a wall.A dimly lit, empty stairwell with weathered green and white walls and a metal railing creates a sense of decay and abandonment.

Exposição Pop-up da Narrativa no espaço abandonado da antiga Manutenção Militar. Durante anos andei pelas ruas em volta, todo o meu ensino secundário foi feito por ali, mas aquela mistura estranha de zona industrial e rural sempre fez com que houvessem áreas grandes com muros não deixavam ver para dentro. A Manutenção Militar era um desses espaços. E que piada tem explorar e descobrir um espaço assim pela primeira vez, anos depois!

A long, industrial corridor with metal gates, peeling paint, and a lone person in the distance is illuminated by natural light streaming through barred windows.Two people are observing a piece of art in a dimly lit, industrial-style room with a worn appearance.A large, empty industrial room features a prominent artwork of a face with an unclear identity on the far wall.

That time of year where the soft end of day light gently enters over my shoulder.

A dimly lit room features a desk lamp, a computer monitor, and a wooden table surface.

Still from last weekend, there wasn’t much time for proper street photography, but one that carries a camera always ends up shooting some snaps.

A narrow street lined with colorful buildings leads to a distant Clérigos Tower, with two people in rain ponchos walking down the street.A person walks along a street lined with a tall, pink fence in front of a building.A person carrying a large rainbow-colored bag walks in front of closed storefronts, with graffiti on a nearby utility box.Two people are sitting at an outdoor table near a shop with clothes displayed at the entrance, while a person stands in the shop doorway.A café terrace with empty white tables and chairs is set against a backdrop of colorful, historic buildings, featuring a prominent Heineken sign.People are walking in silhouette under an arch with a bird flying overhead against a cloudy sky.A narrow alley features a scooter parked on cobblestone pavement, with colorful graffiti, including a yellow face, on the walls.A person sits in a train near a window, gazing at a misty landscape with a bridge in the distance.

Once again at Amplifest, and like the last ones, had a camera with me. Once again, no photos of bands performing or crowds enjoying the music, but that vibe in between shows, with everyone chilling and moving between the two rooms. Just like myself.

A silhouette of a person stands in a dimly lit venue with a small crowd and red stage lights in the background.A group of people is gathered indoors, seen through a reflective glass door.A band is setting up on stage with various musical instruments while a group of people sits in front of the stage.A dimly lit bar with a person sitting at a counter under a lamp.A crowd of people is gathered in a dimly lit concert venue with red stage lights illuminating the area.People are silhouetted against a dark background, standing and sitting under spotlights in a dimly lit area.People are embracing indoors while others look on, with a person in a reflective vest visible in the background.Four people are sitting in a dimly lit room, two on the left and two on a couch on the right, with a warm colored background.People are standing on a dimly lit sidewalk, showing only their legs and feet wearing sneakers.A group of people is silhouetted against a dimly lit concert venue, creating a dramatic and atmospheric scene.

I know that you’ll find me, there. After the fall…

Echoes in my head of yesterday’s show of Chelsea Wolfe, already back home…

A quiet street scene at dusk features illuminated streetlights, a car with headlights on, and a silhouette of a person walking.

In between shows at Amplifest, as the crowd gathers for Russian Circles.

A group of people are gathered in a dimly lit concert venue, some sitting on the floor, facing a stage illuminated with orange lights.
