Piran and Portoroz

Now let's cross the bay from Venice to Piran and Portoroz, Slovenia.
At the beginning of October I travelled to Portoroz, Piran and Ljubljana, Slovenia for the Golden Drum advertising festival and I couln't miss the opportunity to make some pictures of these magnificent locations. I was really impressed by Slovenia and especially by Piran and Ljubljana. I am going to show you some pictures and tell you some comments. Go there! You'll like it!

Venice 1

It is nothing abnormal to take a lot of photos when visiting Venice. I did the same. But I visited Venice both in summer and winter. Winter is great in Venice. Especially in January. I arrived in a completely different city than during the summer. Very very few people in the street. Unbelievable. This is why I think some of the hundreds of pictures I made are worth seeing. I am going to post many pictures but not all at once. this is the first part, called "People in Venice".

Gipsy Stuff

A couple of weeks ago I made a trip to Tg-Jiu and I succeded in doing some nice pictures featuring gipsies. It was very difficult to take the pictures as they were not so willing to be photographed. All these had happened at a fair. They thought I might have been a policeman or a journalist trying to catch them for various causes...

But I think the pictures are quite nice.

The first post, the first glance

This is the first post. This should be the beginning of a long communication exercise. It is just a matter of testing this new media for me. I mean it. WWW2, user generated content, all these things really worry me and I just want to check how it works.

As a matter of fact this blog is going to be mainly a foto blog. A blog of glances. I do not want to tell people things. Not in a blog. I do not have any diarist vocation. But I think I can show you interesting pictures and talk with you about them.
