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 [...]
Sometimes things are not what they seems…
Watching this shot I had the clear impression that she spotted me, that she watched me clearly. If she did she did not do anything at all, if not carrying on her phone call. I think that this happens more times than I would expect…
The thing that hit me [...]
Sunday Fabiana and I went to the Regent Street Festival with Petros. First of all I would like to thank him for the good day spent together shooting, it has been very nice spending time with him. I do not really know what the festival was about, but it was a perfect excuse to find [...]
Good news are always welcome. No matter who you are, what you background is or what the news is.
I was hit by the expression of this woman. I like to think she just received a great news and she was trying to behave well while on the phone. Or at least I hope she did!

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.

During the two days of the Notting Hill carnival we have seen thousands of people, and I shot hundreds of them.

Many years ago I was used to say something like: “An adult is nothing more than a corpse of a teenager, killed by too many useless problems“. Right now I can say that too many times I am concerned by what are not even problems. They are just one of the many aspects of life. [...]
Monday the sun was not shining and the weather was pretty gloomy, but at least it did not rain. The second day I wandered alone through Notting Hill, Fabiana remained at home. I have walked a lot, attracted by the many cultures, the many faces, the many interesting things. Near a food stall I saw [...]
Another shot of a baby riding her father’s shoulders, not the first and not the last during this year Notting Hill Carnival. In my last photo I have expressed a fatherly instinct. I normally tend not to shoot babies, mostly because the schizophrenia linked to the pedophilia. Please do not misunderstand my words, it is [...]
Lately I feel, more than ever, a strong fatherly instinct. I have always wanted to have children, but in these months I smile more broadly when I see children smiling, laughing or walking their steps through the world. It can be something "normal" for most of the people, but for me it is a pleasant [...]
