Landscapes: Honorable Mention 2020 (amateur)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Camogli is a few kilometers from the city of Genoa, it is a place that takes your breath away from how beautiful it is. Its colorful houses overlook the sea, its small beaches full of stones, its church on a strip of land where the sea begins, its small marina with the characteristic boats with vibrant colors and its small lighthouse that despite severe storms withstands alone indicating the route for sailors. Camogli is one of those places to always return to. Its sea full of white foam breaks on the delightful sandy and pebbly beach and poetically frames this splendid seaside village. The project I have been pursuing for some time aims to enhance the beauty of eastern Liguria. Many places that I had the pleasure of being able to photograph have been repeatedly seen and photographed. I think that to carry out an important project it is necessary to address the same topic several times during the year. Each time a different sky and a different sea, and it does not matter if the weather conditions are not always optimal. For better or for worse we have to accept what nature offers us.
I don't really know these beautiful places when I can photograph them again.
The very serious pandemic of corona virus that has hit my beloved country and that unfortunately is spreading all over the world prevents us from being able to leave our homes to fight this invisible enemy.
I sincerely hope that this dramatic moment will end soon and allow all citizens of the world to be able to return to their normal life.
So I want to dedicate this photo to all the innocent victims of this huge tragedy.
AUTHOR
I am a fiftyfour year old landscape and travel photographer amateur based in Genoa, Italy.
I started with photography when i was sixteen years old by taking photos with my old analog camera.
In year 2012 i purchasedmy first Digital Camera subsequently improving my photographic equipment.
Every day I try to improve myself trying to draw inspiration from the best photographers and specialized magazines.
I especially love landscape and street photos.
During the post-production phase, I choose whether to edit in color or black and white, trying not to exceed in the processing of the photographs.
