3:45 am, get up. At 4:30 am, port of Chioggia (province of Venice in the north of Italy), I am on board a trawler leaving for fishing, surrounded by a team of sailors of rather unusual gaits.
Accompanying them in their daily activities, lending themselves to lens game, I observe them and cover their hard work... Thinking about how to deal with the subject, I rather guided him in the idea of a report under the industrial angle of the fishing profession. Finally, in the dark room, after development, the results of the prints confirmed my surprising feeling. I had there everyday men who looked magnificent, as posed as they were expressive and full of character, more like a "lifestyle" theme.
As for “Tri-x 400”, a simple reference to the favorite black and white film used during the time of analog photography...
