About

I join seriously photography in the mid-seventies when I started recording the protests of those turbulent years. Then I found my specialization in Travel Photography, mostly regarding common people in all their everyday activities. My way of photographing is strictly “neorealistic” because I believe in the supreme beauty and the nobility of the little things, which very often slips our attention, as a look or a gesture. I also use of the strenght of the color for enhancing all this. I always used analogic Nikon equipment, but in 2005 I replaced all the analogic with digital.
