The Forgotten Tales (Single)
DESCRIPTION
A classic landscape of the Dolomites, the frozen grass warmed by the warm light of the growing sun. I tried to compose with the diagonal that guides the eye to the main subject, the two wooden farmhouses with the beautiful tree in the middle.
AUTHOR
Thomas de Franzoni is a fine art photographer who uses minimalism as a language of emotion.
His photographs are not meant to describe — they are meant to feel. Each image is a quiet pause, a breath held in time. Whether capturing a lone tree, an abstract corner of architecture, or the soft undulation of a hillside, Thomas reveals what often goes unnoticed: the stillness beneath the surface, the presence within absence.
Through carefully composed lines, open spaces, and delicate contrasts, his work invites the viewer inward. It speaks of memory, fragility, and the invisible weight of things unsaid. There is no noise, no spectacle — only the essential, shaped by light.
For Thomas, photography is not a record of reality, but a meditation. A way to listen, not just to what is in front of the lens, but to what echoes within.
