The fleeting shot in which as per a magic the image leaves from the mind and materialize itself on the film, it’s just the top a huge iceberg. Hidden but exciting the elements that allows the film to create a significant image: the research and the choice of the place, the meticulous preparation of the tools, the silent and watchful walk,  the correct set up of the camera, the waiting for the right time and light and at last the anxious view of the results. The photography has increased and reinforced the change of my approach to the mountain and to the nature, begun in 1995 along with the course to become Accompagnatore di Alpinismo Giovanile. My attitude has become thoughtful, among with times and natural dynamics. I discovered a New World, a true home where freedom, harmony, fantasy and beauty rule. What a amazement and joy incomparable to watch a female of a chamois suckling its own puppy or to decode the incredible geometry and the inexhaustible colors of the flowers!

For a corrected vision of the images check that all the appearing shadings are to be distinguished.
