TITLE: Invisible Light of the City
Invisible Light of the City is a long-term project which pictures the most iconic buildings and landmarks around the world. Pictures are shot on DIY Infrared converted cameras with filters ranging from 720nm to 850nm. The incredible crispness of details rendered by infrared light and the absolute lack of human presence both contribute to the time-suspended atmosphere and make the architecture design really pop out.
AUTHOR: Raffaele Canepa (Italy)
I was introduced to analog photography as a kid by my father and with ups and downs, I've fiddled with cameras since the young age.
In 1993 I moved from Genova - where I was born in 1974 - to Milano to attend university; soon after my arrival in town I was involved in my first film production job, and at the end of my second year I quit economics to pursue a career in the film production industry.
For almost 20 years I worked as a producer for TV shows and ADV and a director for broadcast and web documentaries and series; throughout this whole time, I regarded to photography as a sort of visual sketchbook.
It was around 10 years ago that I stepped into professional photography as a sport and landscape photographer on golf courses - which still is a significant part of my work - and on those very locations I started exploring the reign of
invisible light.
