#25 - THE SEA CATHEDRAL

Few seaside locations are as inspiring as As Catedrais, with her series of sea arches. Photographing As Catedrais is tricky, and limited to low tide; when the tide is high, the beach is completely submerged. On this particular evening, I timed my visit to be there at sunset, to take advantage of the smooth light of dusk with its saturated colors and low contrast, so that I could extract as much texture from the dark cliffs as possible.

ABOUT VOICES OF THE OCEAN

All my life, I felt a profound affinity with the sea. I always have been amazed by the magical way the ocean lives and breathes, by its powers and endless energy. The ocean feels to me like a living creature, benevolent and terrible at the same time, constantly at work shaping the landscape.

The ocean comes with many voices, visually. The long waves and roaring waters offer an infinite range of expressive possibilities to interpret the ocean’s landscapes through a careful use of the visual representation of time.

Working around the ocean, for me, is a never-ending source of inspiration: this collection represents 7 years of photography, listening to the Voices of The Ocean.
