About ‘Go straight down from the Ponte 25 de Abril’ by Rob Rollenberg
The 25 de Abril Bridge in Lisbon is often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge — same colour, same architect. At Pillar 7, one of the bridge piers in the Alcântara district, you can take a lift up to a viewing platform at a height of abou'n tachtig metres. Everyone there takes photos of the Tagus. I looked straight down.

I mostly shoot outdoors: landscapes, birds, anything that scurries or flies. A Fujifilm X-T5 with a set of primes (16mm, 23mm, 35mm) covers the wide shots; the 150-600mm gets me closer to birds and wildlife than I'd ever manage on foot.
Every now and then I trade the landscape for a detail: a car, or an insect through the 80mm macro. Back home, every image gets a pass in post: contrast sharpened, the unimportant bits darkened, until it matches what I had in mind.
