Retired for 15 years after decades editing works by renowned photographers for the editorial world, he now transforms his sharp eye for pre-press into an instrument for celebrating traditional knowledge and organic agriculture. Founder of the Fotoclube Porto-alegrense, he brings together 120 members around projects that unite technique, affection, and a commitment to documentary record.<\/h4>\n<h4>His image &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/en\/single-image\/arrozeiro-organico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Organic Rice Farmer<\/strong><\/a>&#8220;, a finalist in the Single Image category of the <a href=\"https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/en\/contest\/finalists-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FotoDoc Photo Contest 2025<\/strong><\/a>, is a sensitive tribute to the resistance of ecological farmers in the metropolitan region of Porto Alegre. Taken in Mariana Pimentel during a documentary photography course promoted by the photo club, the photograph captures the ancestral moment of the manual rice harvest \u2013 with a sickle, bundles tied with straw, and transport on an ox cart \u2013 revealing not just a cultivation method, but an entire cosmology of work that persists in the face of industrialization. More than a record, the image overflows with respect and admiration for these communities that have fed the city for 30 years through the Feira de Agricultores Ecol\u00f3gicos (Ecological Farmers&#8217; Market), a project of which the photo club has become the visual memory.<\/h4>\n<h4>Learn more about this journey between photomechanics and the field, the value of the collective, and the plans that keep the passion for imagery alive in the following interview.<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_46266\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46266\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-46266\" src=\"https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/fotodoc.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PPF2025-6-140-01-Eloi-De-Farias-1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-46266\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pet, o que ela faz ali?

I&#8217;ve been involved with photography since then. Later I went to work at the printing press with this same brother, and with my first salary I bought a Flexaret camera. I took my own photographs as an amateur, just snapping pictures of family and friends, but professionally I was officially employed as a photomechanics photographer with reproduction equipment for offset printing. I reproduced graphic material for professional photographers; this was my whole life.<\/p>\n<p>I discovered Photoshop in 1990 at a printing trade fair in Germany \u2013 it was a step towards electronic editing until I retired. I was a partner to renowned photographers in Brazil who published their works, editing for various types of publications, both editorial and advertising. It was these professionals who motivated me to always pursue the best.

We made an agreement to document the producers of a Feira de Agricultores Ecol\u00f3gicos (Ecological Farmers&#8217; Market) that was completing 30 years in Porto Alegre. The idea was to photograph them on their properties carrying out their organic activities. For this, we had a Documentary Photography course to go into the field.<\/p>\n<p>This image was obtained in a municipality in the metropolitan region of Porto Alegre, the rural area of Mariana Pimentel, where the worker harvests his organic rice in a completely artisanal way, with a sickle, and organizes it into bundles tied with the straw itself. Afterwards, with an ox cart, he collects it to dry in the property&#8217;s shed. This photograph brings me great happiness for being able to show and document this wonderful work by this community of farmers who are so important for our city.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><em style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\"><strong>What projects are you currently working on?
