The Art Of Astrophotography
Wonders are not just part of our planet. Every corner of the cosmos hides incredible panoramas that are just waiting to be discovered.
Astrophotography is never considered in most competitions because it is considered "difficult to judge". Instead, every day it becomes an increasingly widespread photographic art form. It's time to make a change and show everyone that today study, commitment and passion can enable us to explore the whole universe.
I live in Italy, near Modena and what fascinates me most about astrophotography is its dissemination. I am interested in making astronomical photography known to those who have never heard of it, to people who have never looked in a telescope. Astronomical photography and amateur astronomy offer us the opportunity to live a better life and a few years ago I decided to dedicate myself to this idea with perseverance and sacrifice.
I'm also passionate about travel photography, nature and landscape.
