Details – God Bless Texas!

Last week I’ve completed my 52-picture project with 52Frames, and soon I will arrange the photos all together on a dedicated page. Everything takes time, and the weekends are the only chance to get this job done. Therefore, the painful decision: stop the 52Frames project precisely one year after the first submission to dedicate a […]

Tales of the Sky: Autumn in Yorkshire

Tales of the Sky: Autumn in Yorkshire

Autumn is here. Summer never really bothered coming. Yorkshire hills are showing their true colors, so I decided to switch, for once, to black and white. That’s when I realized that sometimes the sky has more tales to tell than the land.

A taste of Spring UK 2024

Trying to experiment new genres: here we go with some macro shots with a twist. My beloved Canon EF 100 f/2.8 L mounted on the Sony A7 IV.

Diptych UK – Ossett and Wakefield in RED

Diptych UK – Ossett and Wakefield in RED

I am having some fun taking shots in similar weather conditions, harsh light and strong contrasts. I find that those pictures work best and are more interesting when seen together as part of a project or a diptych, like in this case. Here the famous ‘Blind Pig’ in Wakefield already theater of another more sober […]

Close-up UK 2402-01

Trying a new genre, enjoying the game of light and shadow, and letting the darkness eat away at the excess.

Kicking off 2024 – Celebrating the sun and colors!

We closed 2023 with a gorgeous view of the Arno’s banks in Pisa kissed by an astonishing light and it’s now time to say ‘Welcome!’ to the New Year with a few pictures taken in Dublin, Ireland. The common theme here is the Sun and the color RED! Click on the pictures below to see […]

Closing down 2023 – the other Pisa

Closing down 2023 – the other Pisa

The other day, I returned to Pisa by accident, almost ten years after the last time. Our flight back to Manchester was super early in the morning, so we decided to spend the night there and get a few hours of sleep the next morning. In the evening, we went for a stroll that was […]

Special Places – Calder Vale Hotel

Special Places – Calder Vale Hotel

There are some unique places here in Yorkshire, and this hotel, which is not a hotel, is indeed a kind of special. Disguised as a regular pub, the Calder Vale hosts the Luddite brewery – that’s where Ian, Gary, and Tim work their magic, and their beers are nothing like you have ever had. Not […]

Hints are all around the house, scared faces and cold lights: Marta’s flying back to Italy: the time for a coffee and we hit the highway. Safe travels and see you in a week!

Walking in Wakefield – the Eye of the Photographer inspired by Ruggero’s Thanksgiving Day.

On Saturday, the 30th of September, Marta and I celebrated our own Ruggero’s Thanksgiving Day 2023. Every year on this date, we commemorate the day we said goodbye to a toxic and awful person and the negative aura of feelings and emotions that that guy induced and carried with him. Not much more we want […]
