About author:

José Carlos Costa was born in 12.08.1978 in Braga (Portugal). Being the youngest of a family of 11 brothers, “superfluous” expenses were obviously left behind and, therefore his first priority was to invest in academic training. Despite the long passion for photography, his first camera (a compact) was only acquired at age 20 with the scholarship savings. Despite its obvious limitations this served to irreversibly increase his addiction for photography. In 2009, after finishing his PhD in Chemical and Biological Engineering, he acquired his first Canon DSLR that allowed him to broaden horizons. Currently the photography occupies almost all his free time, searching for developing his technical and above all his creative aspects. In constant quest for his own style, nature photography, mostly involving his favourite element, water, and long exposure techniques are the base of his work.
