Crested Butte Gold, Gunnison County, Colorado, USA

We had been wanting to do a fall Colorado trip for a few years. The stars just didn’t seem to align for us, and even this year, we thought we were a week too late for the peak color. Most of the Aspen trees we passed had more bare branches than leaves. That is, until […]

Traces of the Past, Scolmatore Di Livorno, Tuscany, Italy

The Livornese coast is one of the places that lends itself best to this kind of photography. It is a location to which I keep returning, always keeping an eye on the weather.

Morning On Balestrand, Sognefjord, Vestland, Norway

From Oslo, I took the train and then the ferry to Balestrand, a small, authentic Norwegian village that has been spared from mass tourism and large cruise ships.

The Magpie Beauty, Sao Mamede De Infesta, Matosinhos, Oporto, Portugal

The magpie is the most beautiful bird found in the parks in the region where I live. Its black breast, large greenish tail, and the sounds it makes – “tchak-tchak-tchak” – make it unmistakable. It regularly visits my garden. In this image, it seems to be looking at me, but no, because I wasn’t there. […]

Shadows of clouds play hide and seek over the mountain, which is situated at an elevation of 15,000 feet. The air has practically no pollution, making it ideal for stargazing and photography. As someone eloquently described this place, and I quote, “You would be forgiven for assuming the high Himalayan sun at midday would paint […]

Imposing Peaks At Aaeschi, Wasseramt, Solothurn, Switzerland

When I visited Aeschi last September, I encountered a unique landscape. On one side, there was the large Lake Thun with its bluish waters, and on the other, the imposing peaks of Meiehori (1865m) and Glogghore (1984m). These peaks rise abruptly in the landscape and are covered with conifers almost to the top. The view […]
