Thread: Hello from Belgium

    Hello from Belgium

    Hello everyone,

    My name is Sergio Santa and I'm 39, dividing my time between Lisbon, Brussels and a small village in Wallonia in the south of the Belgium.

    I have plunged in LF photography since 2 years now.

    The more I swim in these waters, the more I want to stay.

    My background in architecture paved me the way - a normal course of action you may say - but also my obsession for rigour and the desire to slow things down.

    Working with a SINAR Norma in 4x5 and looking forward (in time) for bigger formats in an attempt to improve my contact sheet processing and alternative development, namely gumoil and palladium/platinum printing processes.

    A small example of my work so far (sorry for the bad quality if the scan).

    Welcome to LF forum, Sergio. Ha, it's been 55yrs since I saw (the airport) of Brussels....where did the time go ? Flew out on Boeing 707 to JFK. No doubt lots of things have changed.

    On occasion I noticed there is real life outside the GG/viewfinder.
