Narrations, anecdotes, talks about food, and short stories of a lesser known Italy by SeveDB
“Colour My Life” When the colors fade and the weather is gloomy is best to accept than to fight it. Often in winter I switch my photography to black and while, or to a very low “saturation.” B&W to See Differently One reason is that I like to shoot in B&W, it’s because it […]
I looked back at my pictures in 2018, and these are the ones I choose as more representative of my year. Maybe not the best I took, but the ones that had more feelings in retrospection. For me at least. January, February, March, and April May, June, July, and August September, October, November, December Looking […]
I love to explore Instagram for ideas, trends, and good photographs to admire and be inspired by. Instagram provides tons of good example, if you know where to look. I’m quite selective in what to follow. No selfies! No nonsense! I found the #ihavethisthingfor on various subjects that I like. My number one favorite is […]
Autumn was long and warm, very unseasonably warm. This morning I woke up and winter has arrived. Can’t say it found me unprepared. I had sorted out winter clothes a couple of weeks ago, hoping that with the first rains the temperatures would have dropped, and hats, scarfs, and gloves were ready.
Finally the Fall is here. Two days of heavy rain and a significant drop in temperatures and we are in Fall. The leaves are yellowing and falling. We are changing the clothing, adding blankets to our beds, and storing the sandals for next year. A rainy fall day offers so many photo-ops. It is just […]
Fall is not coming this year. I was earnestly expecting a month of full colors, golden leaves, and the various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, orange, pink, magenta, blue and brown so typical of the Fall season. Instead the leaves are sticking to the trees for their dear life. Up to last week the trees were still green, the temperatures are around 65F, and there are […]
Forget the old donut, what is in now are the most improbable shapes for floating devices. Other must have are Panama hats and fancy sunglasses. Fur-trimmed slides. (Expect fur-trimming a bit everywhere in the coming winter). Open air Caffès sipping Italian ice. Stand Up Paddling.
I love August colors The blues of the sea and sky The golds, yellows, and orange of the sun rising and setting The beiges of the sand at different hours of the day I love this lazy hot month, in the middle of the summer I love the sweet early hours And the lazy afternoons […]
If you have no daughters, give them to your sons, one ha’ penny, two ha’ penny, Hot Cross Buns Summer days on the beach; tiny bikini are a must have. The size of the bottom doesn’t matter much; for good or bad (the bad is not pictured here) this bikini is the hit of the […]
Why I love summer, because summer days are longer, the light is stronger. No matter the hour, it’s prime time to be outdoors taking pictures. The sunlight’s intensity, direction and color change over the course of the day. These are my colors for July summer days; I love the whites best Or the blues Of […]
