The second Campos do Jordão International Photography Festival, Campos de Luz, invites all photography lovers to another challenge.
This year, our lenses will be searching for water.
After all, the theme comes from the name of these weeping mountains: Amantikir in the indigenous language.
The Tupi legend tells of a beautiful princess who falls in love with the Sun—with Light, just like us photographers—and who, victim of the Moon's jealousy, was condemned to live in the shadows of the dense forests, where her tears for her lost lover formed the torrents of the rivers that spring from this lush mountain range.
Water, therefore, is the theme. Water in its various states: vapor, frost, rain, clouds... our bodies are sixty percent water... these mountains were once the bed of oceans... inspiration is, therefore, within and before us!
