I took this picture a couple of years ago at the beach of Marina di Grosseto, Tuscany, Italy. / This is a fine example I think of how a fisheye lens can completely change the feeling of an ordinary scene. The subject is simply some surf on the seashore, captured from a distance of not more than a foot. / The original picture is a Fuji Velvia 50 Iso medium format slide. Hope you enjoy it, thanks for dropping by. Paolo

Mother nature presented me on a last October evening with one of those sunsets that you can hope to see just once a year if you’re lucky. / High layers of scattered clouds, a pure, clean atmosphere and the fact that at the end of october the twilight lasts almost a hour, all this elements contributed in producing a stunning natural show. This is the Po River near to Carignano in Piedmont, Italy. I hope you enjoy it, thanks for dropping by. Paolo

I took this picture on a very, very cold december morning last year, in the country side near to my hometown of Scalenghe in Piedmont, Italy. I loved how the sun was trying to punch off the thick fog, wonderfully tinging it in yellow, and how the fog worked as a perfect curtain hiding everything behind the trees. / This is the first of a series of pictures I took that morning, the others will follow soon. Hope you enjoy it, thanks for dropping by. Paolo

This is a row of willows that is not more than a 100 mt. far from my house, in the country side near to Scalenghe in Piedmont, Italy. / I took this on a very early morning last november, 30 minutes after sunrise, while a thick fog was coming around, quickly obscuring the entire scene in just five minutes. Hope you enjoy it, thanks for viewing. Paolo

As a landscape photographer I am always in search of new interesting spots to depict. That’s why I travel a lot, when I can. However, I do believe that photography belongs more to how you see, than to what you see. With this in mind, I try to take advantage of any opportunity nature present me with, and I often realize that I don’t really need to travel a lot… This meadow is right outside my yard gate. I took this picture on last October, on a fresh early morning at sunrise, while some mist in the distance was spreading the dawn light tinging the sky with beautiful warm tones. Hope you enjoy this picture, thanks for dropping by. / Paolo

This is the second of series of shot I took in the fog during the winter. I took this picture on a very, very cold december morning last year, in the country side near to Castagnole in Piedmont, Italy. I was wandering about the country when these three frozen leaves at the base of the tree caught my eye. I didn’t touched or moved them, just set up the tripod and shoot, being careful to include the dimmed sun that was trying to punch off the thick fog Hope you enjoy it, thanks for dropping by. Paolo

This is La Courtine, one of the most beautiful cliff I’ve ever seen. La Courtine is part of the amazing rocky coast around Etretat in Upper Normandy, France, altogether known as Les Failases d’Etretat. I took this picture last August, on a very windy – as usual over there – late afternoon. / I wanted to have the sea looking as much smooth as possible, but I was in full daylight, as it was around 19:30 hours. Even with the overcasted sky, and even full stopping down the lens, the exposure time was only 1/2 seconds, a too fast time to move the sea surface. Using a polarizer and a 8x ND filter I gained 5 more stops, obtaining therefore, with a slight over-exposure, 20 secs of exposure time. Finally, I used a graduated filter to darken the sky, while keeping a correct exposure on the cliffs and the sea. / This allowed me to give the sea surface a watercolour paint look, and I also obtained a slight movement in the clouds, thanks to the strong wind. I hope you enjoy it, thanks for dropping by. / Paolo

The Colleoni Monument is a good example of what people thought a condottier should look like in 15C. He was the commander of the Venetian land forces and died in 1475. The statue was modelled by Verocchil (d 1488) but not cast until 1496 by Leopardi. He had left his money to Venice so that a statue could be erected in front of San Marco, but the Venetiasns didn’t do that sort of thing. It was erected instead in front of the Scuolo Grande di San Marco not the church. No one we tried to ask (including the ice-cream seller) knew who he was or had been or when. Taken with a Pentax Z1p and Pentax 28 mm shift lens on Ektar 1000 film.

This is the main Dominican Church in Venice. It was founded in 1246 , but the first church was demolished in 1333 and the present on commenced. It was completed in 1430, except for the main door which was being built/decorated by the monks themselves. It was made from stone pieces from churches on Torcello which were closing down. I was surprised it was not named in honour of the Biblical John and Paul but two C3 martyrs from Rome. The icecream lady could not tell who it was on the C15 statue in the centre. He was Colleoni a C15 leader of the Venetian army long since forgotten by the populace. Taken with a Pentax Z1p and Pentax 28 mm shift lens on Ektar 1000 film.
