Oliver Wehrli
SILENTIUM (Single)
DESCRIPTION
A place by the old willow trees on a river course that I have visited many times before and on this misty morning in January it was half underwater. This was unique and gave the perfect scene for a picture like I had imagined some time ago.
It's an analogue panoramic shot with slide film (Provia 100F).
AUTHOR
For over 20 years, Swiss landscape photographer Oliver Wehrli has combined photography, technology and nature to create photographs that speak a silent yet forceful language. He prefers realistic depictions that appear natural and subtle, showing landscapes unchanged in order to remind the viewer of the beauty of nature without detours via abstraction. He finds his motifs in the close surroundings of his native Switzerland as well as in the vast landscapes of Europe or New Zealand. The photographer prefers to go out into nature with an analogue camera. For him, analogue photography represents the reduction to the essential - namely composing and capturing the image.
