Nature nominee

This forest is so dense and away from official paths, so it is untouched by people. I thought about what this forest has to tell. Because there lives every year again and again a beautiful nature, populated by many animals. When I visited the forest in spring, I felt this mystical atmosphere and I tried to capture this feeling. I photographed the panorama pictures with an analog panorama camera (Xpan / TX-1) with an analog 35mm film.

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.
