Just me.

Just me.

I'm not sure why blogspot is struggling so much with rendering colours correctly; here's a better version of my photo. I don't think I'm too demanding, but here's a good quote for those who think they are because (to me) they, usually, aren't. 
"Whoever wants music instead of noise, joy instead of pleasure, soul instead of gold, creative work instead of business, passion instead of foolery, finds no home in this trivial world of ours." (Hermann Hesse)

I Just Love This Portrait

I hardly ever say that about anything I do as a photographer (and that's good because it makes me work hard), but I think this is one of my very best shots.

Another Photo of Julia and a Poem by Ron Willis

The poem is completely unrelated to this picture. I only read it, liked it and felt like sharing it.

Even in her own heart, there was no real her. She was only images, only alive in front of a camera. Untouchable. Unreachable. Unattainable. Even in her own heart. (by Ron Willis)

Goodnight.

I love this song. Have a great Sunday!

Autumnal Memory

Model: Ella

Actually, the quality of the photo was so bad here that I had to remove it and send you to a different website to view it properly.
Goodnight.
Sleep tight... however strange it may sound...

New Publications and ...

Again, the quality of the photos is ruined on blogspot (and I'm going to keep writing about it until it changes), so I've provided a few links to where you can view them properly. 


And today (first time in my entire life), I'm going to publicly admit that I like this song (well, the lyrics more than anything else). I can't possibly imagine myself confessing that I liked GnR (ever so little) when I was a teenager. They were way too commercial, too popular and too mainstream. Well, nothing like what I would proudly call 'My Music'... I must be getting old. And one more symptom of my ageing. I can't stand 'thanks' (instead of 'thank you') any more... Even if it's just thanking for nothing. Seriously.

Another Portrait of Gorgeous Ella

Published today:  http://www.vogue.it/en/photovogue/Portfolio/8e9061e4-9557-413f-ac45-762f8bc5deb3/Image (or http://www.vogue.it/en/photovogue/Portfolio/8e9061e4-9557-413f-ac45-762f8bc5deb3/Fullscreen). Again, I'm not sure exactly what blogspot does to photos, but Ella's teeth and lips certainly don't look like that (check the links to see what I mean). Where is that pink coming from? It's really bugging me!
