Seitlinger - Carrying all my gear by myself, also for long distances

 
Why are my photography projects so unique?

In my photographic projects I focus on traveling in an adventurous style, with my bicycle and my own feet - only if needed, also public transportation. Carrying all my gear by myself, also for long distances, I am traveling unsupported. With this background each photo will tell his own story of creation and how to get to the place where I made it.

Linhof Technorama 617 Seitlinger


Why shooting analog and 
in epic panoramic format?

I shoot primarily on black and white negative film with a Linhof Technorama 6x17 (617) panoramic camera. Because of this panoramic photography my work is immense rich in detail and will be darkroom printed from the negativ on photographic paper or digital under acrylic glass, both in monumental sizes. I call it "Artistic Adventure Photography"

Who is Martin Seitlinger?

Martin Seitlinger is a self taught landscape and travel photographer – based in Salzburg, Austria.

I am focusing on slowing down the process of photography with long and unsupported projects where only a few photos are taken. That’s why each of my photos has a unique story of creation. 

The setup to take a picture with the large-format, analogue panoramic camera is complex, so it is a very slow type of photography. Ultimately completely handcrafted, from photography to developing to enlargements on Baryta photo paper.

3 month trip for a couple of photos - less is more

each photo will have an Edition of 1 and printed in large format of 3x1m or 6x2m

Some words about this photo!

Imagine if you cycle for more than 3000km, carrying all your gear - day after day, kilometer after kilometer - sleeping in a tent during freezing nights, just to create a few photos from Iceland in autumn.
Iceland 2023
Already autumn
I had days where I couldn't feel my fingers anymore, because it was so cold and wet - and after 6 hours on the bike I was totally exhausted. But if I look at the photography afterwards, it's totally worth it!
