Colossus

A centuries-old laurel tree in the misty forest of Fanal on Madeira. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and every tree there has a unique shape and heavily moss-covered branches. The challenge is to capture the place in the right mood with fog.

My name is Michael Paramonti, born 1971 in Germany. I am originally from North-Rhine-Westphalia and since 2016 I live in the South East in the Black Forest. I find my favorite motives and themes when travelling to different locations in the world and capturing various unique landscapes.
Along the way I always pay the most respect to he people and the nature and give it all the time that is needed.
