The title is the last of the series "Fotografi per Natura" (Photographers by Nature), which I inaugurated now ten years ago with my "Le forme incerte" (The uncertain shapes). In its own way, an anniversary. 05/24/2011. A workshop in Italy. Kingfisher Experience, Oasi Cervara and yours truly are organizing and offering for the week-end 15th and 16th October 2011 a workshop about landscape photography, in the Regional Park of river Sile (TV). 04/27/2011 Nadir Magazine issues, in its update of this week, my review of the Nikkor AF-S 16-85 f.3,5/5,6, specifically written for the valuable webzine. 04/07/2011 The Chronicles of Särna become a blog. In April 2007 I moved to Sweden, and the Chronicles of Särna were born. They were aimed to be a way to share what I was discovering in my daily life, deeply inside the Swedish nature. Four years later, the Chronicles take the shape of what they basically have always been: a blog. From now on, this section will be about all my Scandinavian photo action, and not just about where I live (albeit that will still be the most important). Here they are, thus, The Chronicles of Särna (and other stories from the North). 03/30/2011 The Autumn Photo Weekend is back! In cooperation with Idre Fjäll and Pernilla Wiberg Hotel, the workshop will take place in September, 15th -18th 2011. More details coming soon. Here it's possible to see some backstage pictures from the previous editions. 02/03/2011 I take part yearly to only one photographic contest, and not even every year. I choose only those contests where the RAW original file is requested to confirm the genuineness of the awarded pictures; they are the only serious contests out there, and I like to compete where there is no room for cheating. In the 2010 I chose the Memorial Maria Luisa, an international award with a good tradition which is dedicated to a young mountaineer girl who is no more. For this reason also I followed and advertised it in the last years, without taking part though. Among the 11.500 photos from 49 countries, 4 of mine have been awarded as "Finalistas", or "Highly commended" if you like, in as many categories. Here the contest's website, boasting the awarded pictures and a pleasant slide-show made with them. 01/25/2011 From February 12 to March 4 in the Museum of Porphyry in Älvdalen (Dalarna) will be possible to attend to my exhibition "Winter Simphony". the event is made in cooperation with Mora municipality within the initiatives for the Vinterfest, a main international music festival which is yearly celebrated in the region. 01/25/2011 In the next February issue, the magazine Rivista della Natura sports my article "The Swan Lake". It is my first contribution to the valuable magazine, a bimonthly rich in contents which resists, and even thrives, in a nature editorial branch on which furious winds are blowing in these last years. |
