Still from this weekend’s Bairro do Grilo, or Bairro das Artes: a showcase of how arts could fill an empty and abandoned industrial complex in Lisboa. Hopefully won’t be a single event…

A person is walking between large industrial storage tanks in a facility. People are gathered in a room with artwork on the walls, and a small bicycle leans against a column. A silhouette of two people is seen through a corridor window with a row of windows on the right. A dimly lit restroom features three white sinks aligned under a rectangular mirror with a small pink flower sticker. A beige control panel is set against a green and white wall between two colorful murals, one featuring two figures and the other abstract shapes and faces. A silhouette of a person is visible behind a frosted glass partition with horizontal stripes. Two people stand in a dimly lit room with their shadows cast on a wall. A dimly lit, empty stairwell with weathered green and white walls and a metal railing creates a sense of decay and abandonment.

Still from last weekend, there wasn’t much time for proper street photography, but one that carries a camera always ends up shooting some snaps.

A narrow street lined with colorful buildings leads to a distant Clérigos Tower, with two people in rain ponchos walking down the street. A person walks along a street lined with a tall, pink fence in front of a building. A person carrying a large rainbow-colored bag walks in front of closed storefronts, with graffiti on a nearby utility box. Two people are sitting at an outdoor table near a shop with clothes displayed at the entrance, while a person stands in the shop doorway. A café terrace with empty white tables and chairs is set against a backdrop of colorful, historic buildings, featuring a prominent Heineken sign. People are walking in silhouette under an arch with a bird flying overhead against a cloudy sky. A narrow alley features a scooter parked on cobblestone pavement, with colorful graffiti, including a yellow face, on the walls. A person sits in a train near a window, gazing at a misty landscape with a bridge in the distance.

Once again at Amplifest, and like the last ones, had a camera with me. Once again, no photos of bands performing or crowds enjoying the music, but that vibe in between shows, with everyone chilling and moving between the two rooms. Just like myself.

A silhouette of a person stands in a dimly lit venue with a small crowd and red stage lights in the background. A group of people is gathered indoors, seen through a reflective glass door. A band is setting up on stage with various musical instruments while a group of people sits in front of the stage. A dimly lit bar with a person sitting at a counter under a lamp. A crowd of people is gathered in a dimly lit concert venue with red stage lights illuminating the area. People are silhouetted against a dark background, standing and sitting under spotlights in a dimly lit area. People are embracing indoors while others look on, with a person in a reflective vest visible in the background. Four people are sitting in a dimly lit room, two on the left and two on a couch on the right, with a warm colored background. People are standing on a dimly lit sidewalk, showing only their legs and feet wearing sneakers. A group of people is silhouetted against a dimly lit concert venue, creating a dramatic and atmospheric scene.

Having some fun with other people’s commutes. The dark that comes with shorter days creates the perfect mood for lingering a bit longer in train stations.

A dark urban railway station is captured at night with reflections creating an abstract effect. A person wearing headphones is ascending a dimly lit staircase made of glass and metal, with reflections visible on the surrounding surfaces.

Three people wearing hoodies are ascending an escalator in a dimly lit area.

Doing a clean-up on the backlog, unprocessed photos from the last six months or so. From Lisbon and around. More to follow!

Going out to the streets to shoot means that you tend to go to the same spots, which is also nice, but sometimes you want to avoid those. That’s why me and my mates went for something different last Saturday… In the flattest and dullest light possible…

The masks were back in Lisbon!

For some time it was kind of a tradition to have masked group coming from all parts of the world for FIMI (Festival Internacional da Máscara Ibérica), with the big moment being the parade that happened downtown. It has been on hold for some years, until last weekend.

It’s far from being the same as seeing the authentic thing, but having all these together in the same location, and honestly a bit out of place, makes always interesting photos. And you are able to see familiar faces in your hometown!

After the weeks in the Balkans, between fun kitsch of the cities and the imposing peaks of the mountains, it’s time ti hit back the streets in my hometown.

I have a really long backlog of unprocessed photos, but sometimes I actually do process them but end up not doing anything with them. Not sharing, not posting online, nothing. Until a day like today, where I decide to pick those random, disconnected shots and decide to make a post with them. To not make this even more random, these are just shots taken in Lisbon, in the last year… or maybe more…

Kickstarting June in Lisbon

May 13, 2024 ∞

About this last weekend, there’s only one thing to talk about: workshop with the talented Gustavo Minas. Literally two very full days, of learning, sharing, taking photos and, of course, with some beers in between.

Now it’s time to take a deep breath and let the dust settle.

Foi bonita a festa, pá!

Nestes tempos estranhos, ver este mar de gente a descer a avenida da Liberdade para os 50 anos do 25 de Abril enche-me a alma.

Agora vou ali e já venho, até já!

Some picks from last Sunday’s walk with my mate Luís, feeling kind of lazy for some time so these challenges, or should I say dares, are the push I need. Feeling less and less pressure to actually bring cool photos when I go out, and enjoying that a lot.

Somehow the warm sunny days are the ones that feel just right to go around the neighborhood, and beyond, and do some photos. Just a handful of snaps from this weekend.

Short work trip to the Netherlands. Had a camera, as always. Shots obviously ended up happening, in between the grown up chores.
