Guarding the embrace

El Diablo!

There is an old song that comes to my mind every time I see this photo. I have been editing it for some days, always on the verge of publishing it, but only today I have decided to go through pushing it online. The song is from an Italian band called Litfiba and its name [...]

www.thousandportraits.com

We discussed about it and, in the end, we decided that, even if the name of the domain will, without any doubts, give away some information, releasing it is the first step to release the project.
