TITLE: The city

AUTHOR: Antonio Coelho (Portugal)

I am an electrical engineer, and I have an enormous taste for photography, something I have already been able to instill in my 6 year old daughter. The fact of being an engineer allowed at the beginning of my development of photography, start with theory, such as physics, optics and chemistry.

I developed a huge taste for concetual, abstract and macro photography. I started a new study of street photography, in an abstract way and with a different view of what one normally sees in street photography, using 10mm objective or voluntary movements of the machine, creating effects of "motion blur".

In the last years I have won some prizes, publications in the site 1X, as well as in the best book of 1X. I participated in several national and international competitions with 1st, 2nd place and honorable mentions
