Christmas in Venice means being able to find a shared Christmas tree in a small square in the Castello district, far from the tourist flow. The photo dates back to the end of December 2018. A memory that the current pandemic makes even clearer. A wish that everything can be as before as soon as possible.

This was my beautiful and delicious vegan Christmas cake made by a local cake maker in Wiltshire. I’ve never been a fan of traditional Christmas cake and this chocolate orange sponge was just the ticket.

This is a December sunrise in Lower Saxony / Germany. My first impression was it looks like smoke in the sky so I called that picture "Red Smoke".

This was taken from the top of the Chickahominy Bridge in Williamsburg, VA, where I often like to ride my bike. The water that day was looking a bit murky, but the clouds were fantastic! In photography, as in life, I like to focus on the positive. :)

This work was shot in the harbor of Tainan, Taiwan. The two lighthouses are looking at each other, but they are tightly together but far away from each other. It tells me that people want to meet and can’t meet each other. It means a lot of longing.

Going around the street with the smartphone in your hands or in any case at hand is always an opportunity to transform an image into a photograph. And if the walk takes place in the most beautiful city in the world, Venice, the only problem is to have a spare battery, because the opportunities to take a photo are endless. Here we are in the area of the Ostello di Santa Fosca, Cannaregio, once a convent of the Church of the Servants of Mary. Of which some walls remain around a splendid courtyard.

This work was shot in the deep mountains of Taiwan. It rained in the spring morning, and the whole mountain forest was covered with morning mist. Walking along the path in the woods, I accidentally photographed the raindrops falling on the trees as if adding a trace to the air. The coolness of silk.

Florence, Italy<br />
A very famous bridge: Ponte Vecchio, on the Arno river.  The buildings on the bridge were once butcher shops, now they are goldsmith shops and their windows shine bright.  Above the arches, in the center, you can see some of the windows of the Vasari Corridor, a secret passage that connects Palazzo Vecchio to Palazzo Pitti. During the Renaissance, Palazzo Vecchio was the center of the city government while Palazzo Pitti on the other side of the river was the home of the Medici family and the Vasari Corridor was used to pass from one to the other without being seen by the citizens.<br />
During the Second World War, the Vasari Corridor was used by the Resistance to bring information and material between the two banks of the river without the knowledge of the German Occupation Army.<br />

Uno ponte molto famoso: Ponte Vecchio, sul fiume Arno. Le costruzioni sul  ponte un tempo erano negozi di macelleria, adesso sono negozi di oreficeria e le loro vetrine brillano luminose. Sopra gli archi al centro si possono vedere alcune delle finestre del Corridoio Vasariano, un passaggio segreto che collega Palazzo Vecchio a Palazzo Pitti. Durante il Rinascimento Palazzo Vecchio era  centro del Governo cittadino mentre Palazzo Pitti dall’altra parte del fiume era la casa della Famiglia Medici ed il Corridoio Vasariano serviva per passare dall’uno all’altra senza farsi vedere dalla cittadinanza. <br />
Durante la seconda guerra mondiale il Corridoio Vasariano era utilizzato dalla Resistenza per portare informazioni e materiale fra le due sponde del fiume ad insaputa dell’esercito tedesco di Occupazione.
