richard thomson's photostream

The first photos here are scans of 10*8 inch black and white prints. I did all my own developing and printing but don't seem to do it anymore. Many of the pictures were taken while travelling, especially to festivals in Asia. I like structure, balance, symmetry, lines, stillness, movement and feeling. At the end of 2007, I went digital and colour. I wanted to see what I hadn't seen before: festivals in colour.

La Mutual de Fotografía. says:
"La fotografía de -rt- parece de una gran simplicidad: no hay puntos de vista extraños...las perspectivas son habituales...no están tomadas con cámaras soviéticas...Pero el ojo que vio esas imágenes que nosotros vemos hizo antes un largo recorrido por el dolor, la alegría, la compasión, la ternura ...En ese angosto camino -rt- encontró la sabiduría que se desvela con cada foto que muestra. Y eso es lo extremadamente difícil."
