Walking in Venice and Murano, without the usual crowd of tourists, gives you the opportunity to notice the unique dialect, intonation and linguistic expressions of Venice. Pure joy. Around me ‘Ciao fioi‘, hi guys! Picture: Fujifilm X-Pro3 – 35mm f/1.4

Slow
Holidays force you to slow down. Taking the time to learn how a medium format analogue camera works, load the film, set manually the exposure, the shutter speed, find the right focus; waiting for the film roll to be finished, before even knowing if any of the picture will be any good (and actually, ifContinue reading “Slow”
Changing setting
In my hometown. Changing from a big city to a small size town, even if for holiday time, brings a totally new experience. Proximity, relations, details, nature, time. This is all I see in this this picture Picture: Fuji X-PRO3 ; 35mm f/1.4
Distracted messages
Montmartre and the area just around (9me – 18me) – but maybe somewhere else in PAris – has been displaying a campaign to end violence against women.

And tumble out your hair that the salt drops have wet; being young you have not known the fool’s triumph, nor yet love lost as soon as won, nor the best labourer dead and all the sheaves toContinue reading “To a child dancing in the wind”

I think it is important to see some on the images I take on paper, touch them, oberving rendering of colours. The narrative of the book is around “Silent Paris” and I have taken inspirationContinue reading “Silent Paris”
One by one
Early morning. The patience of replacing (almost) every morning the words and compose names of shows and artists that we will see, later that day, up in a board. And lightened, later that evening. Creating expectations, emotion, excitement. Picture: Fujifilm X-PRO3 – 35mm – ISO 160; f/6.4; 1/280sec
Will this last?
Quiet moments. This corner is surprisingly calm and quiet in this period.
