Wandering around small shops - Roussillon village ocre

Provence is known for beautiful landscapes of cypress and olive trees amid verdant fields, with medieval towns perched on hills linked by quiet back roads. 

Lavender scents the air and fruits, vegetables and olive oil are so fresh that you're convinced they should be picked or produced in that very single day. Splendid churches, medieval castles, abbeys and fascinating Roman sites along the way provide frequent stops.

From three-star Michelin restaurants to small bistros in the countryside, Provence is known also for having some of the best food in France. When looking for a restaurant, you can easily discover a hidden gem in a centuries old stone building in one of the little villages perched high up on a hilltop.

Just about every village in Provence boasts its own workshops and boutiques dedicated to the local speciality and in every outdoor market being held in a town you will find fragrant herbs, lemons, garlic, olives, artichokes, peppers, aubergines, courgettes, and tomatoes.

Everywhere you can find classic Provençal colors such as the purple of lavender, yellow of sunflowers, and gray-green of olive leaves, that made this area a muse for artists like Van Gogh, Matisse, and Cezanne.

Find bliss in Provence, with backroads, maybe on a bicycle!

It's amazing the huge amount of images stored on hard disks of our computers.

In digital era lots of stuff, also bad stuff, is preserved and maybe in the end is not even cancelled.

It takes up terabytes upon terabytes but starting now I want to give me as a rule to go back and take a look at old snaps, rework them and consider them with new fresh eyes.

Maybe I can even find small hidden gems!

Autumn is a gorgeous time of the year. Nature gives us a spectacular show of colours, with its rich palette of browns, splashes of reds, hints of yellow and shades of green to enjoy before winter. 

The air is filled with the musky scent of burning wood, the days get shorter and colder but some of my favourite colours appear during this season. 

This is the time of the year where a photograph of a simple tree is a subject itself, can stand on its own, with its own colorful dress and the sun makes it even more brilliant.

Photography in the fall has a lot to offer to the photographer....so get out from the computer and...let's shoot!

As a photographer I can consider myself a sort of an artist, an observer and a lover of negative space.

The negative space is the area around the subject and, for me, it is just as important as the subject itself.

Some times negative space is useful if you want to create a mood or a secondary point of interest. Some times enhances or competes with the subject. Other times is an element that can reveal a sort of quiet harmony.

When I shoot, I always keep the negative space...in mind.

They have made ​​the history of road trips and, many years later, they are still very much in vogue: beautiful, elegant, remind us memories and famous movies, they are the most popular classic cars, from simple to super sports cars.

There are few, if any, pieces of hardware as emotive as the car: for the collector, every single vintage car is not only a car formed by electrical, mechanical and body components, but also a living being, with hearts, emotions, events that marked their life.

Have you ever thought about owning a TRUE classic?
