title
eerie descent
in this place full of charm, there are many waterfalls hundreds of meters high. they descend and slam impetuously on the rocks downstream, and the sound of flowing water echoes between the mountains.
I took this photograph in the summer, during a solo journey in the French Alps. That morning the clouds covered the view towards the peaks, and I was about to leave for a new destination, but just before getting into the car, the clouds opened and let a timid ray of light pass, which allowed me to immortalize this precious experience.
Born in Pietrasanta, in Tuscany, in 1991. Since I was a child I have a great attraction towards nature, which represents for me an immense source of inspiration. Over the years, thanks to the many experiences spent on the mountains and the ocean, I felt the need to share the emotions I experienced, and this is how my passion for landscape photography was born. The first reflex was a gift to me at the age of 22, and since then I have always tried to improve myself and deepen my knowledge, both in the field and in post production. I love being immersed in the wildest and most unspoiled places, walking in the woods off the beaten trails, on the mountains or on rocky beaches. In my shots I am committed to portraying not only what my eyes see, but also the connection that I can establish with the nature that surrounds me. I consider photography a powerful mean of expression, as well as a real cure for all evil. In the future I will continue my journey to discover the territory, looking for new ideas, new scenarios, and new emotions to tell.
