Andrea Peruzzi – Waiting for Dalai Lama

This story is not a photographic project designed at the table, but it represents what I like most.. that is traveling and documenting real situations and the people I meet, in a spontaneous way. Last summer I rented a motorbike and traveled through the valleys and villages of the Indian Himalayan region of Ladakh. By Continue Reading

Chiara Felmini – Papua

Papua New Guinea is a peninsula of Oceania located on the island of Papua, a large island shared with Indonesia. It is the second island in the world: only Greenland is bigger. The shape and type of structure of the island, together with the simple technology of the inhabitants, explain why it contains such a Continue Reading

Alessandro Malaguti Arunachal Pradesh

Arunachal Pradesh: the land of the rising sun This series portrays the various tribes present in Arunachal Pradesh in India with their traditional clothes. In this border region coexist 26 main tribes and more than a hundred subtribes, probably one of the last outposts where communities live a primitive existence, leading a rural life, benefiting Continue Reading

Roberto Malagoli – Mauritania

Memories make noise: sounds, voices of travelers, children’s laughter, winds, which in the desert are breathed (or amalgamated with) with the sand and on the coasts become pleasant breezes. The mobile gaze wants to immortalize everything: slightly jagged horizons, bushes of tiring green, soft dunes that divide the space with the liquid blue, devoured by Continue Reading

Sergio Volani – Cambogia

A country a bit left aside in the past years, perhaps because of its tragic and fairly recent vicissitudes, Cambodia is a fascinating jewel rich in history for a traveler and even more for a photographer. Not only the famous site of Angkor Wat, one of the most visited destinations in the world, remained hidden Continue Reading

Tina Salipante – Mare Fecunditatis

“I went back there,Where I had never been.Nothing, as it was not, has changed.”Giorgio Caproni Life and death appear to me as a single function that cancels itself in its beginning, almost a still movement, a failed act in the fall of time where the forms of existence transmute into silence, dissolve the contours of Continue Reading

Roberto Manfredi – once upon a time there was a sea

In recent decades, a huge environmental disaster has taken place, almost unknown, but perhaps the most serious; serious because  widely foreseen since 1964 by specially commissioned studies and yet consciously pursued. The Aral was a large salt lake, almost three times the size of Sicily. So big that it is called “sea”, the Aral Sea. Continue Reading

Roberta Vitali – desert is magic

On the fly to Tunisia I had only one desire: to go beyond what I had already seen and stop taking normal photos of beautiful places, to start taking beautiful photos of normal places. But immediately I ran into a difficulty. What was really normal in a world so far away and so different from Continue Reading

Claudio Varaldi – Camargue e Abrivado

Autour d’un feu, une veillée De leurs belles femmes accompagnés, Dansant sur des rythmes endiablés, Gardians se mettent à chanter. Fabien Cendre Hundreds of horses and shepherds on the beach of Saintes Maries: 1000 horses, 200 shepherds and thousands of enthusiasts gather on 10 and 11 November on the beach of Saintes Maries de la Continue Reading

Chiara Felmini – China

There are people who make trips and trips that people make: in China this can happen. Trips are made for many reasons and curiosity is always a good reason; We start with the desire to know and discover, but in the luggage sometimes slip from the drafts all those prejudices resulting from readings, stories and Continue Reading
