WHERE THE SUNLIGHT SETTLES
by Gabby Nichols
In the moments when the sun dances and the light settles, those are moments when the magic of analog photography shines. Analog photography is a special style of photography that uses light-sensitive film to expose an image the photographer composed. In Italy, I searched for the sun among the shadows and the light reaching the mundane moments.
Here are 30 exposures on 35mm Kodak Gold 200 captured across six cities in Italy.
