My friends,

 

I am leaving for Brighton in two days, I just can't wait! I am so excited to finally meet Michael Levin and all the other partecipants, I'm sure it will be an inspiring experience.

 

 

If you happen to be in the area, let me know (write me a Flickr mail so we can exchange our mobile numbers and arrange a meeting!): I will get there Friday afternoon.

 

 

By the way I finally got my prints, they look amazing! I really have to thank Jeff Gaydash for his kindness and high-quality printing service.

 

 

 

This image was created a couple of months ago, it was one of the few times when you get in a splendid place and wheater conditions just get together! I have to thank you my lovely Alice for being THAT patient!
