Discovering the Galapagos Islands
Nestled in the Pacific Ocean, about 620 miles off the coast of Ecuador, the Galapagos Islands are a living testament to the wonders of our natural world. Renowned for their remarkable biodiversity and their role in the development of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, these islands have become a haven for nature lovers, scientists, and wildlife enthusiasts.
Visiting the Galapagos Islands is like stepping into a different world. The isolation of this archipelago has allowed species to evolve and adapt in unique ways, leading to an astonishing array of endemic plants and animals. From giant tortoises and marine iguanas to blue-footed boobies and penguins, these islands are an Eden of wildlife.

Peter De Ruiter: A Master of 16mm Cinematography
Known for his extraordinary talent for capturing natural beauty, Peter De Ruiter is a celebrated cinematographer and photographer. His passion for the Galapagos Islands led him to embark on an ambitious project to document the islands' wonders using traditional 16mm film.
De Ruiter's decision to shoot in 16mm film adds a unique charm and depth to his visuals. The grainy texture and vibrant colors of the film give his shots a timeless quality, evoking a sense of nostalgia and capturing the essence of the Galapagos Islands in a way that digital photography often cannot.

Throughout his footage, De Ruiter also explores the islands' extraordinary landscapes. He takes us to the towering cliffs of Genovesa Island, where red-footed boobies nest precariously on the ledges, and to the otherworldly lava fields of Bartolome Island, where the volcanic formations create a dramatic backdrop to the sparkling ocean.
