Every now and then there are moments that are worth recording. The image was captured in Castelo Branco, Portugal, a few minutes before a strong storm. That day I had my old camera with me and also a Plutto Trigger that I put to be activated by the light. I was lucky to get the shot at the perfect moment. Adjustments to the small cork oak that was not very lit in the loge and to the field to match the color with the sky.

My name is Antonio Bernardino Martins Coelho, I am from a small village in the north of Portugal, where I live. I am 43 years old, married and father of two girls. I work as an electrical engineer. A taste for painting was evident in me early on, but it was only in 2010 after a trip to Cuba that I became interested in photography, having captured a lot of images. However, having a small digital camera, I started to acquire analog equipment and develop the photography learning activity in a self-taught way, using very old and medium format machines. My favorite camera is the Zeiss Ikon Nettar.
