He was walking with some friends under a shadowy bridge. The first shot I took of him and his friends was not spectacular but it gives me the possibility to see his spectacular eyes. So I zoomed in to get them and I waited him to get under the light. He saw me, and to [...]
He definitely stand out from the crowd. It was not only the way he walked or the way he kept his hands in the pockets nor even the way he help his backpack on one shoulder. It was all these things alltogether and much more.
The pendant on his neck was hanging out, showing a Faith [...]
I normally use aperture for any editing of my photos, but from time to time I like to experiment with some plugins. This time I tried to give a dreamy look to this girl. I wasn’t convinced by any of the three different version I had created, and the Bleach Bypass that usually satisfies me, [...]
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 [...]

Few things are more reassuring than someone keeping your hand. There may be noise, crowd, the whole scary world out there, but nothing is too dangerous if your guide is holding your hand. And if one is reassuring, having both your hands kept by guardians’ hands is peace.
There was a large crowd this year at [...]
The Notting Hill Carnival is a Caribbean carnival, so the title matches perfectly, doesn’t it?
This year experience at the Carnival has been fantastic. The girl in the middle was playing with that toy gun, and let me tell you that she was the leader of the group: no one would have challenged her! Those eyes [...]
