Fragments of life

Photography’s task? To tell a story, a moment a life, through an image; donating and welcoming. Knowing that photography not only enriches the photographer but above all the viewer. Those who take photos are constantly bombarded by images often stemming directly from their mind; snapshots that are invisible but distinctly clear. This is my work, my momentary study… I narrate instants, I narrate lives, I narrate the essential.

Choosing a backpack is not always simple and predictable. Backpacks are an essential accessory, an exemption of the equipment. This why I chose the Manfrotto Professional Backpack 20. This indestructible backpack not only effectively holds my camera equipment, but it’s also incredibly comfortable and portable even when wearing it for several hours. I need to constantly move around darting about, which is why portability and above all convenience are always top priority. Most of my photos are taken in the marine environment, often even immersed in water; the safety of the waterproofing material, the padding and the accessories supplied keep my mind at ease.

I present a series of photographs taken from my latest project called human landscapes, where the landscape merges with the human figure; a timeless marriage. A man/land fusion that pushes my creativity to a metaphysical blending of subjects. A re-elaborated version that requires continuous photographic outings, often in wet and hazardous environments. But in the end the beauty of photography is just that: discovery, research and madness.

They’re shots taken in one go, often unexpected; subjects extrapolated from daily life. Dynamism is another important point of interest. Men, women, children and animals, contribute through motion to the dancing of the elements, to their fate of constantly changing beings. The horse, a majestic animal, fascinating and dignified. I love the expressive force that the photo takes on, the purity of the lines and the body that blends with the corresponding seascape.

I used a Canon 5D MKII to take these shots and two wide-angle lenses: a Canon 17-40 f4 L and a sigma 12-24 series 2. I also used the indestructible Manfrotto 190 XPROB, a more than valid travel companion.
