The magic of seeing images appear on paper

The magic of seeing images appear on paper

My name is Daniel Antunes, and I was born in Lisbon 58 years ago. My interest in photography was born in my teens, influenced by my father, who also photographed and developed the rolls of film at home. It was the fascination of the hardware, how it worked, the magic of seeing images appearing on paper immersed in a tank. All of this motivated me for photography.
