His name is Pippo, a Grey Heron that, since some years, has decided to live in the small harbor of Camogli. An unusual decision. Normally this kind of bird lives along the rivers. Pippo, however, seems very happy to live on the sea and does not seem to have any intention to leave. The locals […]
Bourgeois Stone, the wood and its legends.
Have you ever walked alone in a wood away from everyone? The night is filled with imaginary figures, the same ones that for millennia have fascinated and scared men. Walking in woods and forests far from everything and everyone means diving into a world we are no longer used to. You feel out of your […]
A red sunset like the postcards ones.
Liguria has exceptional sunsets and clear waters. There is no need to go to the opposite side of the world to find an exotic place. Between vineyards terraces, ancient stone houses perched on the sea, colorful houses and the scent of sea seems to be on a postcard. Yep, the postcards. Do you still send […]
Abandoned cannon at Caré Alto.
This abandoned cannon is still a silent sentinel pointing the Corno di Cavento Mountain. It brings with it the atrocious stories of the Great War. This time lapse was filmed during the photographic mission at Caré Alto. If you are interested, I would like to point out the two specific posts dedicated to the photographic […]
Stella Maris
Stella Maris, this is the name of an ancient sea-related celebration. Camogli is a village of millenarian maritime traditions. You can perceive it from every corner of this village perched on the sea. Perched like its Dragonara Castle, antique vigilant against Pirates raids. On the first Sunday of every August, the Dragün, with its 12 […]

Into the wild!
Italy offers stunning places with breathtaking views and incredible stories to tell. One of these places is the Caré Alto Mountain overlooking the Adamello glaciers. It is a remote area reachable after a few kilometers drive from Tione di Trento, crossing the green Borzago Valley. Once left behind the village of Tione you will see […]
Caré Alto: Mission accomplished.
I’m at almost 3000 meters of altitude on the crests of Caré Alto, all around me it is silence. Stefano, a mountaineer friend of mine, meditates while I shoot the photos at those abandoned cannons. In front of us we see the majesty of the mountains and of the glaciers of the Adamello. Behind us […]
A dream called Europe.
Today I want to talk about a dream called Europe. Behind every photographic mission that I embark on hides a long historical research work. I do not want to photograph rocks but I shall tell the stories of men that remained on those rocks forever. It is the stories of those men that changed me, […]
The thousand colors of Central America.
Right in the middle of Central America there is Costa Rica. A distant Country I knew some time ago when a series of coincidences brought me there to explore it. This morning I woke up with the desire to listen some Latin American music. This just to give a little color to the day while […]
