Snow Patrol @ Koko Camden 2006

Watching the Snow Patrol Rock in Rio concert on telly, alone in my living room while pushing through a ton of work, I’m so wishing I’d had the time and energy to have been there.

Twisted Lisbon

Recipe for twisted imagery: move your iphone right after pressing the button. Experiment with spinning it clockwise or counter-clockwise for nice curves, up and down or sideways for other kinds of distortion. Works better with good lighting and subjects with straight lines, like architecture.

Tilt-shift miniature faking

By simulating a narrow depth of field and very saturated colours on a photo with an elevated point of view you can make a normal scene look like a small scale model. I’ve been dying to try these techniques for ages, but I just didn’t have the appropriate images. Until now, that is…

Nelson Cascais Quintet @ Hot Clube

Five amazing musicians, a cozy little jazz club and a few g&ts in good company made for an excellent night out, despite the stormy weather we had to face to get out there.

Surfer soup

The weather was glorious on the last Sunday in October. By the end of the afternoon, Carcavelos beach was still crowded. And the sea presented a pattern of little black dots, the silhouettes of surfers floating patiently, waiting waves that were few and far apart. The sea was a surfer soup.

Dreaming of Italy #2

I can’t help but to have mixed feelings for Venice. Much like a theme park, it’s ridden with loud American tourists, the food is not so great but very overpriced, as are the gondola rides, and you can’t find any decent ice-cream. Also, it literally reeks of old and decay, it feels like it all […]

Dreaming of Italy #1

Here we are again, another August spent in Lisbon. Eight years ago, however, someone thought it would be a good idea to have a holiday in Italy in the hottest of months. And four more agreed. Crazy or not, the five of us landed in Rome and slowly made our way up to Milan, swimming through […]
