TITLE: light glowing

Sunset light also called “golden hour” has the power to create delicate twilight and darken shadows, in a way that often give poets their proper environments for tales, about elves, magicians, monsters or secret inaccessible treasures…
Approaching and climbing our mountains often happened to see “that” light and registered on BW film.
Possible?
Most were taken with IR or superpancromatic film, dark or middle dark filters, and my loyal Hasselblad gear.
First photo was a kind of Life-Death gambling as to take it the only right place for the tripod was across a small wall dividing the road and train line, both tightly built on a cliff…
The others were widely easier compared…
I did myself both film processing for better result (often ir processing enhance the effect too much loosing details) and scan.

AUTHOR: Marcello Colombo (Italy)

Marcello Colombo was born in Milan on 03/27/76 and lives in Monza near the park of the same name, breathing breadth and beauty.
After high school he completed a three-year engineering course to then deal with automotive design.
He holds several patents within his scope and defines new standards of method and merit.
In 2006 he began a journey of analogue photography "in the workshop" of a skilled black and white professional, until he acquired complete mastery of the process during the pandemic. Thanks to the passion for the mountains he fixed beauty in specially organized expeditions, panoramas and environments, trying to convey his sensations to the film, with the most appropriate techniques from time to time.
Now he dedicates a good part of his time between mountain expeditions, ptrocessing and printing, verifying whether to make it his main profession.
