Panoramic nominee

The moment appeared in the mid of autumn: five days of special light and constant rain, besides slightly fresh for the Caribbean Sea, to the north of Quintana Roo's Mexican state. I used the subtle and tenuous light in the solitary beaches, but with marine birds that remained static during the whole day on jettys of abandoned hotels, left by problems of legal possession.

In this corner of Mexico a tourist boom appeared two decades ago, there were constructed the jettys that were serving for the aquatic activities and for lack of maintenance now they are recycled by the subjects in the landscape.

Hans Reinhard was born in Heidelberg, Germany and he lives in south-eastern Mexico since twenty years. He has specialized in sublime landscapes of the Mexican Caribbean, using the best natural light, with a distinctive touch to his style. He is free of rules and draw a line with the great landscape painters of Romanticism.

He took part in exhibitions and national and international contests with great success.
He was selected to take part in the exhibition of the 200 years celebration of Mexico's Independence in 2010 at the Palace of Culture in Mexico City, from more than 20,000 photographers worldwide.

In 2010 published the photography book 'Riviera Maya', a collection of 144 photographs, and in 2014 the book 'Playa del Carmen'. He was awarded with the National Award of Graphic Arts.
