About the Book
There is always a reason to visit Gran Canaria. But in winter there are even more.
“Something to write home about” is a collection of “postcards” that shows you not snaps of beaches of Gran Canaria, but rather observations that go beyond the shiny gloss of a commercial postcard.
A trip to Gran Canaria is always a treat, no matter what the season. The island’s people, its charming villages, the delightful food, its quiet and rocky landscapes, will always give you something to write home about.
For this large format 29 pages photobook (33 x 28 cm) I took all the photos with an SLR camera with a B&W film that I processed in a darkroom. The post production work is minimal.
The idea was to get a very organic and raw feel to depart from the typical postcard of commercial images.
