Patagonia

In 2024, I finally fulfilled a long-held dream: spending almost a month in Patagonia with friends. With a heavy backpack, a sleeping bag, a tent, and my beloved medium format camera, we set off to explore some of the most breathtaking landscapes.

About Artist

Lubomir Drapal

I'm a photographer based in Považská Bystrica, Slovakia, with a deep passion for analog photography and everything that surrounds it — the darkroom, red light, the distinctive smell of chemicals, and the quiet magic of watching an image slowly appear on paper in a tray of developer. I focus mainly on mountain and landscape detail photography, capturing moments from my journeys through Slovakia, Iceland, Nepal, and Patagonia. I shoot exclusively on a medium format Mamiya RB67 using Ilford and Bergger films, staying true to the timeless charm of film photography.
