PHOTOBOOKS

A book of the colours in the natural and built environment. The images show not just the subtle tones of green and blue in mountains and waters, but also the striking colours used by the Icelandic people in their houses, clothes and street decoration.

We parked in front of the hotel, and walked through the open door. The lobby was empty. We wandered through the large bar, the sitting room, the restaurant and kitchens. No one. A telephone number on a scrap of paper on the reception desk. I called it. “I’ll be right along” he said.

Long Lake is like that. Mostly empty. Between the high winter sports season and the high summer sports season it is empty. A diner that opens at 11. A hotel restaurant (but not this one) that serves an evening meal. Breakfast comes from the gas station. You could get live bait from Hoss’s Store, if it was open. There are several churches, stores, boatyards, even a seaplane base. They would probably be busy at other times.

It’s a good place to listen to the wind.

Bologna is a city of arcades. The winter sun slashes black shadows across the street. Faces moving in and out of sunlight are the visual counterpoint to the sound of heels on stone. Dark figures in the distance emanate an air of mystery.

Black and white photos are arty and intellectual. Colour photos are holiday smartphone snaps. Who cares? Enjoy a cheerful celebration of bright colours - fresh, dirty, clean, rusty weathered, neat and messy.

Photography at Rencontre d'Arles, the biggest festival of them all, is presented immaculately in beautiful venues around a beautiful city. The exhibition posters are treated with less consideration, but make an exhibition in themselves.
