The Logbook – A Space for Stories, Moments, and Observations
The Logbook has become a space for thought and observation—a place where words take the helm. What began as a journal of visual notes and maritime stories has grown into a more reflective territory, where philosophy, ethics, and perception converge.
Here, I let my thoughts drift across themes that shape my work and my way of seeing: the sea, time, craft, attention, and the fragile balance between humanity and nature. Some entries remain close to the shore—anchored in the tangible world of boats, harbours, and water—while others venture into quieter, more abstract reflections.
It is a place to pause, to think, and to write freely. A companion to my visual work, yet with its own current.
Slowpoke,
There’s a line in Neil Young’s Slowpoke that I keep returning to, one that seems to shift shape each time I hear it:
“When I was faster, I was always behind.”
Somewhere Along the Way
Everywhere you turn, someone is selling visibility — courses, shortcuts, formulas for relevance. The promise is always the same: be seen, stay seen, never disappear.
The Image Flood: When Everything Is Photographed, Nothing Is Seen
The human brain isn’t wired for such an infinite feed of visual inputs. It’s wired for attention. For focus. For meaning.
But digital platforms—especially social media—reward volume over vision, speed over substance.
Content flows endlessly, numbing our receptors and conditioning our eyes to scroll rather than to see.
Photography as Testimony: Why Images Still Matter
We live in a world flooded with photographs. Billions taken, shared, and forgotten—daily. And yet, I remain convinced that photography is one of the most powerful and deeply human acts we have.
Against the Infinite Scroll: After Sontag
We live with a lens where our eyes should be. The more we capture, the less we keep. After Sontag, this essay argues that image abundance has turned attention into mulch—and suggests small, stubborn practices for restoring the art of looking so a single photograph can matter again.
Notes on the Intuitive Photographic Act
We think of seeing as what the eye does, but it’s closer to what the whole being feels. Each image emerges from that convergence — from the conversation between intuition and matter, between air and water, between the inner tremor and the outer world.
Mobilis in Mobili …. 155 years with Captain Nemo
Captain Nemo wasn’t a childhood reading. He was a fissure. A signal.
At a time in my life when I still believed adventures were external territories —sea monsters, uncharted horizons, technology waiting to be conquered— he appeared.
Solitary. Lucid. Faithful to his own compass.
Not a hero. Not a villain. Something more unsettling: someone who had chosen to live by his own principles, even if it cost him the world.

Changing Course: A Life Drawn Back to the Sea
Not in crisis — but in clarity.”
After years of telling stories through images and film, I felt a subtle but undeniable shift. A course change. One that didn’t abandon the past, but finally aligned it with something deeper: my lifelong connection to the sea.
This first Logbook entry traces that journey — from salt-drenched childhood memories to a new, sea-centered phase of work where all my skills and passions converge.
