Ale's Stones : A study in Black and white Somerled Karlsson

This picture book is the fruit of repeated visits to the stones of Ale over the seasons. The grassed slopes and the wide views are slowly developed in the darkroom. Many hours there lead up to the image of atmospheric photographs. Absorb them slowly, as they were intended, and Ale´s stones will stay in your memory.

The ancient stone ship, the grassed heights above a glittering sea, the little fishing harbour, the people, the grassing animals, and the sounds of the sea. All come together in this storytelling of black and white photography.
