La Recoleta in the centre of Buenos Aries, is a vast and extraordinary necropolis that has become relevant historical and artistic monuments of the country. Its were the remains of Eva Peron lie. And its just staggeringly beautiful and massive. Its a world class expamle of funeral architecture and has been declared a heritage site. Still using film here. Ifford HP5. Then given its dark sepia cast to intensify the nostalgic and removed qualities in the image.

A small fragment of a building in downtown Buenos Aries as I strolled aroung the city with a small SLR camera loaded with HP5 B/W film. The colonial influence on the architecture in Buenos Aries is pronouced and very beautiful and and the contrast between that and the vast shanty towns outside the city make it somehow bittersweet. Film just seemed to be the correct answer to this particular place.

Another striking colonial building in downtown Buenos Aries. Shot with film on a very hot and bright cloudless morning. I’ve left it deliberately stark to accentuate the form and graceful lines of this beautiful building. I’ve rendered as a dark sepia to indicate a sense of the timewarp sensation I had while wandering the streets of this faded belle of a city.

Another in my series of images shot in beautiful Buenos Aries. This image is fully digital and was shot with my Olympus E 300 while driving by in a taxi at some speed very late on the evening of Christmas Day. I flew from Sydney at around midday on the 25th of Dec and arrived 20 or so hours later at around 4pm on the 25th of Dec. Which I thought was pretty neat. Anyway after checking in I went out and stolled about and got some dinner at a little pavement cafe and watched all the beautiful people strolling by. Then I got a taxi to just drive me around while I shot some random things out of the window. Wonderful experience. Also I don’t want you all to think that I have an aversion to digital capture. I love digital. And I love analouge. Actually I just really really love cameras in all their splendid variety. Little light tight boxes of magic that they are. But for today its full colour digital all the way.

This is the next image from my recent adventure to Antarctica via Buenos Aries. I went to photograph the light and the ice in the fabled Southern Continent. But on my way there and back I spent some time in this wonderful city of great beauty and tremendous contrasts. I was bowled over by vibrant faded beauty of this extraordinary place and will need to go back to take more photographs of this stunning Argentine city. Shot with Ilford HP5 with a very small and very battered SLR. Analouge really suits the nature of the place and the unobtrusive nature of the camera I was using allowed me to get up close and scratch away at the surface of what I was seeing. I need to post these Argentine images before I get to the extensive portfolio of Antarctican images I have coming. They are to me the precursor and epilouge to my trip to the ice and almost as compelling.

Not all the buildings that caught my eye in Buenos Aries were graceful colonial structures. Some were from the more immediate past like this sixties post modern apartment structure. This is were the relatively well off live in this teeming city. Close to the city and safley removed from the sprawling shantytowns were the numberless poor live. And I mean really really poor people. The poor here in Australia live like kings compared to their counterparts in South America. Anyway this image has also been shot with film and post processed to give it the nostalgic atmosphere of a place lost in time and struggling with the idea of

Short Story Collaboration with Lawford

A week or so ago I posted a random picture taken in Buenos Aires as I was being driven around the city in a taxi. The image itself doesn’t really fit into anything else I’m working on but it’s still a vibrant and ambigous image that’s full of life and mystery. I said at the time that it would make a great start for a short story and left it at that. Well a couple of days ago Lawford contacted me and said he’d like to have a go at putting some words with it. And today I just got in from work and cranked up the computer and the very first thing I see is the wonderful excellent little story that he has made to go with this image. So please everybody take five minutes and go and have a little look at the image and then read the story and let Lawford know what you think. I’m so pleased with how he has interpeted the image and feel he has really brought it to life. It’s how I will always think of this image now. The picture is here: Mexican Standoff Buenos Aries and the story is here: The Buenos Aries Boys

Argentina has long been known for it’s night life and crazy traffic, even the side streets are full of motion and activity. The bus moving fastest in this image is mere inches away from the foot traffic walking along the street. The cart seen in the upper center of this picture is part of the recycling process of cardboard with scavengers manning these carts day and night.

Located in the La Recoleta neighborhood in Buenos Aries Argentina, this 20 meter tall flower opens when the sun shines and closes everyday when darkness falls. Built by Eduardo Catalano.
