With us

5 years

I shot photographs from when I was 6 years old. I played with Threepenny machines up to 18. Then I discovered the reflex camera (first an old Zenit E, then Olympus OM1, OM2). I discovered the black and white (the mythical Ilford), the dark room. From 20 years to 45 I snapped, developed and printed thousands of photos. Especially dance, theatre, portraits. Almost always black and white. When digital arrived I was very wary. Then, slowly, I discovered the advantages in the use of digital cameras and, sometimes, Photoshop. I'm not a pro but (I think) a good amateur and today, 68 years old, I'm still taking hundreds of photos with Olympus OM d ā€“ E-M 10 Mark III. I always love dance, theatre and portraits. But also the landscape, reportage and above all street photography. And now that I have the iPhone, sometimes with Hipstamatic app, I discovered a wonderful chance to take pictures whenever I want. Iā€™m on FLICKR like Maurizio Zanetti ā€“ mauzzan https://www.flickr.com/

Winning photos

The best time to photograph a city is when its inhabitants still sleep. It is then, without the distraction of traffic and people, that you can admire the poetry of its monuments. Picture taken with iPhone, no post production.

9th Collection

Behind the scenes of a dance essay. Waiting for the magic moment, we observe in silence. Picture taken with iPhone, no post production except the transition from color to black and white.

8th Collection

Dance is art but also play, friendships that are born and grow over the years. The backstage is the best place to find out. Picture taken with iPhone, no post production except the transition from color to black and white.

7th Collection

After a snowfall on the Lessinia plateau, a few kilometers north of Verona. Snow, clear sky, the contrails of some planes, silence. Picture taken with iPhone, no post production.
