As defined by the poet Josep M. Rodr\u00edguez: Intimate panorama. If I had to define the style of Luis Vioque, I would undoubtedly use that expression: intimate panorama. Two apparently opposite words, which come together and fill with meaning in each of his photographs. One of the tools I use is the German-made Noblex 135 U camera. This camera is 24 x 65.5mm format, uses 35mm film, a Noblar T f4.5\/29mm prime lens and speeds 1\/30-1\/500 seconds, very small range but enough for my way of working , I generally work in good light and without a tripod.<\/p>\n

The operation of this camera is very peculiar; the diaphragm is adjusted like any other, but the real difference with other types of cameras is the speed.<\/p>\n

The Noblex has a drum, where the objective is inserted. When this drum rotates, light passes into the body through the lens. Depending on the speed we have set, the drum will rotate at a faster or slower speed.<\/p>\n

Let’s say that the shutter speed of a normal camera is replaced here by the speed of rotation of the drum.<\/p>\n

I like to use this camera as the shot covers 127\u00b0 in one shot. Due to its peculiarity, it makes some deformations in the horizontal and vertical lines; This is quite noticeable when there is a building nearby, but this same deformation creates a volume in the photograph that I have not been able to achieve with digital software.<\/p>\n

Another of the rarities that it has is a level incorporated in the viewfinder that helps you a lot when it comes to putting the horizon line as straight as possible.<\/p>\n

It is an ingenious invention since the camera has a small window in the upper part that allows light to enter the leveling bubble and be seen in the viewfinder.<\/p>\n

The film I usually use is Ilford Pan F 50; It’s a film that I work very well with, as it has a very fine grain and good contrast. I still have the analog laboratory active and both the negative and the positive I continue to do it myself.<\/p>\n

Some of these images can be seen in my publications, Iceland 2018, with various trips through Iceland; Nordic, work done in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland; and Haibun, a publication edited by the University of Almer\u00eda where I collaborate with poet Josep M. Rodr\u00edguez where his poetry is complemented by my photographs.<\/p>\n
