Rothwald (Single)
DESCRIPTION
The Rothwald is a forest, which I have often visited with my grandparents and with my parents. I live in Switzerland in the Alps and this forest is one of my favorite places. That's why I spend a lot of time there with my family. For this reason I wanted to print a fine art picture, but it should not be a picture like other forest pictures. I had something picturesque in mind, so I looked for a piece of forest in the fall that combines brown and green colors. The fog gives the picture some density. When composing the picture, I searched for some time to find straight trees lining up. I created the image with a panoramic camera (Xpan / Tx-1) and used a 35mm film with Iso 800, so that the grain in the image is very pronounced. When printed on fine art paper, this supported the desired style and look.
AUTHOR
Next to the daily life, Renzo Cicillini photographs mountains and landscapes with analog 35mm and 120 medium format film as well as digital medium format. He often visits places and subjects several times before he realizes the picture. At the right moment, he likes to compose light, shadows, colors and nuances into images. Later, he plans and accompanies the process in the print and in the frame manufacture on site until the completion of the fine art image.
