It's in my blood.
Since I was given my first camera, when I was a little kid, I have always been fascinated by capturing in a shot what my eyes were seeing around me. The beauty of nature or the smile of a friend, an event or an emotion... Precious pearls to be framed in a photo. Whether freezing a movement or moving the stillness, looking at normality through a different angle or portraying the exceptional, I can choose different perspectives, I can catch reality. I think this passion is in my blood, I inherited it from my Grandpa and then from my Dad, and it has always had a great influence in my life. Come and follow me in my journey searching impressions of life.

Pumpkin Galore!

I LOVE PUMPKINS!

Yes, I like pumpkins a lot, but not as food (that I don't like) rather as decorations and symbols of the season. The vivid colors and the odd shapes are always so visually stimulating that is difficult for me to resist using them as subjects for my photo-shootings – and to resist bringing a certain number of them home, as Denise painfully knows very well...

For the first time I used Lightroom 5 for my editing. I had always used Digital Photo Professional, from Canon, to convert and finalize my RAWs – and will still use it – but I must confess I like the diverse and powerful tools of the Adobe software. I still have to learn how to use it at its maximum potential, but I hope to master it very soon.

This year the season is late and autumn colors are just now starting to change the landscape here in the Po Valley: Check the blog! New colorful shots on the way!
