Sorrento #1 - Limited Edition 4 of 10 Photograph

This shot was taken in Sorrento, Italy, form top of the cliff looking down at people enjoying the sea over a number of piers. I'd like the viewers feel the atmosphere of a very hot and sunny summer Italian day, the pleasure of splashing and swimming in the water, the hot of the sun under the skin. It is printed on Fineart Baryta Hanemule Paper, an acid free archival fine art paper and it comes with a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. Sorrento #1 won a First place Winner of the Aerial category at the 8th International Color Awards. 8th Annual Jury members included captains of the industry from Christie’s, Paris; Frieze Art Fair, London; DB Agency, Milan; Clair Galerie, Munich; Edinburgh Film Festival; Art Beatus Gallery, Hong Kong; Gup Magazine, Amsterdam; and Eyestorm, London.
