In these days I am incredibly tired, but I am happy of it. I am not a masochist, mind it, but the reasons of my tiredness are important: after long time I am spending time to create something, I am finally interested in bringing an idea to life, and I am working to make it [...]
A month or so ago Apple presented the new iLife ‘09. Amongst the various improvements in their softwares there has been one that immediately hit my interest: Face Recognition in iPhoto.
Let me start with some notes. I am a people photographer, faces are present in 99% of my photos. I try to be quite organized [...]
Sometimes people’s reactions are strange, nobody can deny this. I was walking towards the photo shop to develop my film, and I had just one frame remaining in the roll when I saw this man.

I have met Max more than once around the National Portrait Gallery. On his wheelchair, playing his violin and watching those passing by. The first time I stopped to have a chat with him i was because I saw he was looking my digital camera with a little bit of disgust.

Ain’t no Sunshine, originally uploaded by Carlo Nicora.
I have to admit that the film “Notting Hill” have some parts that are deeply stored inside my heart. One of this is when Hugh Grant walks down [...]
