people shooting people

this international photo project developed because i was intrigued by this odd human behaviour:

people see striking objects or stunning natural phenomena and tend to put their family members right in front of them

and take pictures, then swap places and the process is repeated

norway yesterday, canada today, italy tomorrow, who cares ?

heijne&heijne have published a new photobook in a numbered limited edition

if you are interested, please contact me

the pictures can be used to create your own exhibition

a few examples from all over europe

portoni di bormio

bormio is a picturesque, small town in italy

the city has a lot of very nice, mostly wooden gates that lead to courtyards

i have published a book “portoni di bormio”

between 2006 and 2012 the number of inhabitants decreased by more than 50%

homes are abandoned and are left to fall into ruin, because their heirs lack the

funds to re-build or buy out other heirs

shops are closed down, the streets are empty

the village is enveloped in a gloomy silence

when strolling through villages and cities in northern spain,

do not forget to look up

the balconies range from spectacular to homely, and from

ancient to fairly modern, but they are all special
