The fog comes

on a little cat feet.

It sits looking

over harbor and city

on silent haunches

and then moves on.

I really like orchids, their natural beauty makes them an easy target for artistry and photography. They symbolize both strength and beauty. They’re also very distinctive because they are so different from other flowers.  I like to think that orchids are like people: every one of them possess an each own beauty, one different from the others. This is my “model”! :-)

Great insight from master photographer Steve McCurry, talking about the importance of capturing the moment.

November photo of the month on my website should be a tribute to the people of the Cinque Terre severely affected recently by flash floods and landslides, hoping they could raise as soon as possible from this great tragedy and could find the strenght required for a complete rebirth of their wonderful places. Never give up!
