Atlanta’s Midtown skyline, a constantly evolving skyline, which from Piedmont Park appears to blossom from a forest.
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
An intimate scene of the Po River near to Carignano in Piedmont, Italy. I took this picture last January, on a cold and misty morning. Hope you enjoy it, thanks for commenting. / 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
That was an interesting shot, seems a tunnel but really is…? / What is :-) ? Taken on abandone place “Hotel Meina” , on the river of Lago Maggiore , first place were Nazist in war period killed human in Italy. There is a book and a film on this story!

Catesby’s Trillium, Trillium Catesbaei The Catesby’s is a delicate, slightly nodding Trillium which blooms from April through June in the southeastern piedmont of North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama and the along the lightly shaded woodlands of the Appalachian foothills. / This beautiful wildflower is distinguished from the White Trillium, or Trillium Grandiflorum, by its narrower, sickle shaped petals and leaves and its nodding bloom of three white petals with pinkish casts which usually appears in pink with light traces of white, (The all white Catesby’s is fairly rare). It has three whirled leaves, three strongly curved sepals, three petals and six stamens with yellow anthers. The flowers can be 2 to 3 inches in diameter, and the stalks normally range from 6 to 12 inches in hight. Named in honor of Mark Catesby – 1679 to 1749 This poster shows the gradual maturation of the flower from before the bloom to full blossom. The photograph in the upper right corner is an example of the normal coloration of the bloom. The rest of the photographs are of a white Catesby’s Trillium which is fairly rare. This particular white bloom had a very light shade of pink along the veins of the petal which gradually grew more pronounced as the petals matured. These photographs were taken in a forest on the northern outskirts of Habersham county near Sautee, GA. Also see White Catesby’s Trillium / And “A Flower is Born” / Copyright © Richard G.

Mount Rocciamelone (Piedmont, Italy).
There are some man-made places where one can easily hear, resonating within a small space, a whole symphony, an ouverture speaking about greatness, an elemental language of struggling faith. / I’ve found all this, all of a sudden, in the smallest awe-inspiring church ever found. Seen many times in 15 years, but never in its interiors. A jewel, wrapped up with a layer of humbleness, like many mountain’s experiences and apparently simple things. Chiesa parrocchiale, Forno Alpi Graie (TO). Piedmont, Italy.
