ABRUZZO NATIONAL PARK, REFRACTION Print

With these images, I want to open a window onto a corner of pure nature. In these landscapes, the colors, shapes, lights, and shadows weave incredible patterns and reveal hidden details. I believe photography is, above all, an experience—an active process of 'doing': walking, climbing, discovering, learning; it's tied to that. I want to celebrate this experience, both visual and physical, and the beauty it brings to life. I aim to showcase the beauty of these landscapes and their importance, both biologically and intellectually. As the great photographer Eliot Porter said, 'In wildness is the preservation of the world.' These images are a tribute to that vision, a homage to untamed beauty. I hope to offer a new dimension to your experience, letting you rediscover familiar places in a new light, or discover them here and later find them in the woods and on the peaks. I invite you to step in, observe, but most of all, reconsider our role in preserving all of this.
