The Piacentiniano Center in Bergamo

The Piacentiniano Center in Bergamo : The Piacentiniano Center in Bergamo. Walking through the heart of Bergamo’s lower town, I found one of the most elegant and balanced urban spaces in modern Italian architecture. The Piacentiniano Center stands out for its symmetry, the use of stone, and that sense of order that invites you to slow down and observe. In this shot, I tried to capture one of the most representative arcades, with columns perfectly framing the view toward the building in the background. The central perspective naturally guides the eye, while the person walking through the scene adds a sense of everyday life. Bergamo, in Lombardy, Italy, is well known for its dual identity: the historic upper town and the more modern lower city. The Piacentiniano Center belongs to this second part and was designed in the early 20th century by architect Marcello Piacentini, creating a spacious and well-organized urban area. A notable detail visible in the photo is the Latin inscription abo...

The Borzoli district plaque in Rapallo

The Borzoli district plaque in Rapallo : The Borzoli district plaque in Rapallo. While walking through the streets of Rapallo’s historic center, I came across this small but meaningful detail: a plaque that reflects part of the city’s historical organization. It is often through these subtle elements that we can better understand the identity of a place. The photo shows the plaque of the Borzoli district placed on the wall of a building in the heart of the town. Around it, the warm tones of Ligurian houses and traditional shutters create a familiar and welcoming atmosphere typical of the Riviera. These everyday architectural details give each corner its own character. Rapallo, in Liguria, Italy, still preserves traces of its historical division into districts, known as “sestieri.” Borzoli is one of them, and these plaques serve as reminders of how the city was once organized. Taking photos of details like this allows me to tell a different kind of story, moving beyond the most famous v...

The dragon at Chùa Nam Sơn Temple in Da Nang

The dragon at Chùa Nam Sơn Temple in Da Nang : The dragon at Chùa Nam Sơn Temple in Da Nang. Through my lens, I captured a fascinating detail from Vietnam: the dragon at Chùa Nam Sơn Temple, one of the most interesting things to see in Vietnam for those who appreciate traditional architecture and symbolic decorations. The golden figure surrounded by stylized clouds creates a powerful composition filled with colors, shapes and cultural meanings. Looking closely at this photograph, I am drawn to the incredible precision of the decoration. The curved body of the dragon, the painted details and the geometric patterns behind it create a sense of movement that almost makes the sculpture appear alive. This is not simply an ornamental element; it is a small visual story built through craftsmanship and tradition. I took this photograph at Chùa Nam Sơn Temple in Da Nang, Vietnam, a place where religious architecture, artistic details and local culture come together. The temple is known for its c...

The Mangia Tower in the heart of Siena

The Mangia Tower in the heart of Siena : The Mangia Tower in the heart of Siena. Through my lens, I captured the Mangia Tower in Siena, one of the most recognizable landmarks in Tuscany and one of the places to see in Italy for those who love medieval architecture and historic city squares. The side perspective of this photograph reveals the connection between the tower, Campo Square and the elegant Public Palace, creating a scene where centuries of history meet the rhythm of everyday life. Looking at this image, what immediately catches my attention is the balance between the impressive height of the tower and the harmony of the surrounding buildings. The warm brick structure rises above the square with a strong vertical presence, while the lighter stone section at the top creates a refined contrast that makes the monument instantly recognizable. The Mangia Tower seems almost too tall for the frame, yet it remains perfectly connected with the architecture around it. I took this photog...

Abandoned villa on Dei Devoto street in Lavagna

Abandoned villa on Dei Devoto street in Lavagna : Abandoned villa on Dei Devoto street in Lavagna. Standing in front of this abandoned villa, I found a quiet scene shaped by years of silence, where worn walls, empty windows and faded architectural details still preserve the feeling of a forgotten story. This forgotten building in Liguria represents the charm of abandoned places in Italy, locations where the traces of past lives remain visible through the surfaces and structures left behind. When I photographed the facade, I wanted to capture more than the simple appearance of the building. I focused on the small details that reveal the passage of time: damaged decorations, aged surfaces and elegant shapes that continue to survive despite neglect. An abandoned villa can create a unique connection between architecture and memory, allowing the observer to imagine the voices, movements and everyday moments that once filled those rooms. The photograph was taken in Lavagna, Liguria, Italy, a...

Squid skewers enjoyed on Costa Toscana

Squid skewers enjoyed on Costa Toscana : Squid skewers enjoyed on Costa Toscana. In this photograph I wanted to preserve a simple moment connected to the pleasure of tasting a seafood dish during a cruise experience, where even a small detail can become part of a personal travel memory. These squid skewers on Costa Toscana represent a meeting between Mediterranean flavors and the emotions created by discovering something new while travelling. I chose to capture this dish because food often becomes one of the strongest connections to a place and a moment. A carefully presented meal can tell a story without needing many words, bringing back memories through its appearance, its flavors, and the atmosphere surrounding it. At the Ferrai bar on Costa Toscana, this small seafood experience became a moment worth remembering. For me, food photography is not only about showing what is on the plate. It is also about capturing the feeling connected to it: the pause during the journey, the curiosit...
