The Rio Tinto in Andalucia, Spain is red in colour due to the
intense mining activity in the region. It’s waters are highly acidic
as a result of pollution from heavy metals such as iron and copper
as well as sulphur dioxide emissions. It is a bizarre landscape –
grotesque but in a perverse way also quite beautiful.

Frank Lynch is from Dublin, Ireland and is currently living in Brig, Switzerland. He works in graphic design and takes photographs as a counter-balance to the stresses of the graphics business.

Frank is a non-professional photographer.
