the Incredible story behind the picture from 1989

Peter Halmagyi Exclusive Collections

The Island of Tetiaora was purchased by Marlon Brando in 1964. This picture was taken when he was still alive.

I visited this place as a freelance photographer. The lights and reflections are one of a kind on this island, the whole place gives me chills even today.

I sat for hours on a sand hill when suddenly this beautiful couple rode right in front of me. It was like a movie: the perfect composition of the sea and the horizon, and the utmost exceptional metaphoric manifestation of true youthful love – right in front of me.

What makes this photo even more special is that at this time we didn’t have digital cameras. I had only 36 frames for my whole trip, and only one chance to take this picture.

On the way home with the diapositive, I had to keep the negative in the dark, and even put it into a magnetic bag during the airport x-ray security checks to preserve the image. I had to take care of the photo like a little baby, even the slightest mistake could have made it forever gone. This respect, love and humility for photography in the older times also makes this picture very beautiful to me.
