I was a child when I first heard the name Bruno Lemos [writes Luciano Burin] – he’s famous in Brazil for his annual coverage of the North Shore, and his photos have been featured in many of our surf mags.
Our friend in Brazil, Luciano Burin, keeps us in touch with what’s cool in Florianopolis. So when he sent me the link to this little film he’s put together, I checked it out straight away. I know the sun has been making a break for freedom here in the West Country recently, but it’s still not a patch on the rays out in Brazil. It’s Luciano’s grin in this film that really warms you though - he’s just fooling around with a new camera and some editing software, but he’s having a ball. Check it out…
Check out Tom Veiga’s latest work – Serie Waves, a collection of art “inspired by sensations and feelings I get from the sea, wind, the sun’s heat and the movement of the waves, as well as places I knew and other places that I still want to know”.
The Brazilian Paradox has got people talking so I thought it would be good to talk back - nothing like a bit of healthy debate. Thanks to Luciano Burin and Drift for giving this topic oxygen…
Surf photography – good surf photography – somehow communicates all those complex, complicated and unique experiences we have in the ocean. Luciano Burin talks to leading Brazilian photographer Marcio David about the digital vs analogue debate and how to stand out from all the other snappers in an overcrowded line-up…
Painting in watercolour and riding a wave are activities connected within the same essence – making art with water. (Words by Luciano Burin – read this article in its original Portuguese on Luciano’s blog www.surfecult.blogspot.com)
