Marina di Ravenna - The Watchman Print

"In the lens's gaze, the eternal moment, ensnaring the fleeting essence of time" *** I enjoy shooting both instinctively and with careful planning. It depends on the day and the inspiration provided by the location or subject. In the photos I capture, I strive to convey the emotions drawn from literature and cinema, arts that have always deeply moved me. So, to the best of my abilities, I seek inspiration from Faulkner, Kubrick, Murakami, Wenders, Lansdale, Kaurismaki, Watson, Fellini, and many, many others. Of course, I am grateful to all, naturally! I've been involved in photography for many years, although it's not my primary occupation. Whenever I can, I take photos, both in Italy and abroad. I love capturing the beach and everything it offers. I'm also drawn to the allure of the American Southwest and the Far East. When I don't feel like traveling, or don't have the time, I enjoy creating photos in the studio. My first camera was a Pentax. I carried it with me in the early '90s to capture images of the Big Apple. Slowly, over the years, I transitioned to digital: being able to see the result of the shot immediately is no small thing. I chose a Sony camera because I also love shooting videos, and I thought it was the right device. It was very fun and intriguing to shoot videos for some small music groups, but over time I discovered that my preference lies in a visual art that doesn't interact with the subject. For this reason, my interest shifted towards nature documentaries, but even more towards the world of photography. redrumstudio@hotmail.it
