A couple weeks ago, a little snow fell on the hills just south of where I live, so I took a drive one late afternoon, trying to catch some of it, before it all melted. As usual, by best winter images are made at dusk, when the blue sky light reflects off the snow on the ground and contrasts with …
There is no doubt that the Cinque Terre are one the most sought after locations in the Italian Riviera and the one that attracts the most tourists, but that stretch of coastline that extends from Genoa to the gulf of La Spezia has many gems that are less known, but not even one bit less charming. From Genoa to Camogli, …
This was another one of those serendipitous discoveries. Me and a friend were driving up and down the hills, trying to find the exact location of an image I had seen online a few days earlier. While we did find the spot, we couldn’t get much out of it. First, our main subject, a castle, was quite distant and there …
I went for some graphical minimalism for this one, shot near Pienza, Tuscany. This is a style I should try more often. Do you appreciate minimalism? Do you practice it often? Let us know in the comments below. Equipment: Fujifilm X-E2, Fujinon XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR. Exposure Data: 1/160s at f/2.8, ISO 200. Apologies, but this blog post …
Tellaro is just another one of those picturesque Ligurian villages by the sea. It is just a few kilometers south of Cinque Terre, so it is a perfect destination for those wanting to extend their trip there to the surrounding areas. It is also a great spot for summer sunsets, when the setting sun hits the houses and the church …
Excuse the pun, possibly understandable only to Italians. The Carabinieri are one of Italy’s police forces and Reparto Mobile refers to a mobile, that is motorized, unit. Here, however, mobile… well, you know what I mean. I shot this in Venice, during Trey Ratcliff’s recent photowalk there. My attention was attracted by the four Carabinieri, who were intent on checking their smartphones, until one of them …
Camogli is a fantastic little town nested between the mountains and the sea and, with the right light, its colors can be awe inspiring. I was lucky to get there one late afternoon at the end of September, when the sun in the west was lighting up the houses on the waterfront, all painted in tones of red and yellow, …
I just returned home from too short a trip to Tuscany, where I went to meet some online friends for the first time in real life, show them a bit of the country and take some photos too. Unfortunately, the Saturday was plagued by bad weather and constant rain, so we did a visit to the city of Siena, hopping …
The town of Portovenere was so called because, in Roman times, there was a temple dedicated to the goddess Venus here, hence Portus Veneris, or the Port of Venus. Nowadays Portovenere is yet another of those charming Ligurian villages with pastel-colored houses, in front of a deep blue sea and under clear blue skies for most of the year. If you …
