“‘Zen’ is the word that comes to mind when one delves into the world of photographer Josef Hoflehner. His landscapes are a reflection of the man he is: shy, quiet, laid back. No wonder then that his favourite technique is the long exposure. The technique requires him to take time to understand and anticipate the seasons, the light, the wind and the cloud movements. He must be in communion with the landscape, so to speak. Around the world at dusk, Josef Hoflehner captures slices of infinity on film and, thanks to his great mastery of gradients, gives us a peak at a world in slow motion.”
