Bob Negryn

1961*, Galway, Ireland

NINETEEN NINETY TWO -  TWENTY TWENTY FIVE | walking the alps
Thirty years ago, a lifetime!
Those mountains haven’t changed
HAVE THEY NOT?
But for tourism on steroids
More pervasive, more aggressive, more people, more in your face
But for wet snow
Used to be dry and light - now wet and heavy
MORE STICKY - melts faster
My relationship with the landscape of the Alps goes back a long time and is complex,
like any relationship that has endured.
I am not showing a simple yes or no approach. I photograph the good, the bad, the
indifferent and all the up and downs of a long lasting relationship.
But the underlying message is I cannot live without being there, experiencing the
landscape, looking at it, thinking about it and visualizing it.
Much has changed - nothing has changed - more will change
The pictures I took - the pictures I am taking - the pictures I am going to take
The world changed - I have changed - our climate will change

MORE!
