Light of hope
For a couple of days I have been checking weather forecast. I wanted a specific light: the sunlight filtering through the clouds.
During the first hours of the morning, I left and went to Acitrezza. The sky was covered by too many clouds so I already knew that the picture I had in mind wouldn't have come out.
When I arrived there, everything was dark, the clouds were compact and a light breeze caused the waves to hit stones and rocks.
I took different shots but, while making a long exposure, the clouds started to separate from each other, letting the sunlight go through.
Probably the scenery that I had in mind was starting to take shape.
Photography for me is a constant adventure. It’s not only about taking the perfect shot, it is more than that: I like all those situations I go through to take a shot, including exploring, climbing and spending nights in a tent, like a real adventurer.
I have studied in the Academy of Fine arts in Catania in Italy earning a Master degree in Photography.
I love to capture landscapes and natural scenes around me.
