A lady walks out from the British Museum in London in a sunny December day. London, 4th December 2008
My experience with the new Canon 5D Mark II was brilliant and I have to thank Canon and 1000heads for having given me the opportunity. The first five minutes I had the camera in my hands were [...]
When you live in the city the tempo of your day is fast. 120 heartbeat a minute, fast paced walk, a cigarette half smoked half left on the pavement. This is the time, a smile, few minutes of small talk and then back to work. Time flies, you follow. Buses packed, crowded street, just the [...]
I am in love with both my lenses, the 70-200 and the 28mm, and I like to use them both. The result are quite different, the feeling of the photos are quite different. While the 28mm is a cheap lens, very slow in auto focus, the other one is fast and precise. The prism in [...]

There are moment that are worth catching because of some expressions, some others because of some subjects. This clearly belongs to the second group.
Meditation, originally uploaded by Carlo Nicora.

Her amazement, originally uploaded by Carlo Nicora.
They were stylish, with their shiny sunglasses that I could not help noticing them. (and capturing them of course)
She had this amazement look in her gaze while watching some [...]

London Surprise (Back to the ’80s version), originally uploaded by Carlo Nicora.
