Si è soli con tutto ciò che si ama.
We are alone with all of this that is loved.

"I luoghi del mondo possono essere sensuali quanto i luoghi del corpo.
Il ricordo di un particolare scorcio di una cittá lontana riempie della stessa malinconia e della stessa felicitá di una mano che accarezza il mio corpo."

Me han publicado un artículo en la revista Foto DNG de este mes. Si queréis echar un vistazo podéis descargarla aquí :)))
Non sono neanche 24 ore che il mio corpo é tornato a casa e riguardando certe sento chiaramente che questa volta la mia anima non solo tarderá di nuovo un bel po' a rincasare, ma chiederá asilo laggiú ;)
Sento gioia, ma anche malinconia. Si tratta di una sensazione molto simile a chi ama qualcuno ed é costretto ad allontanarsene.
Questa foto l'ho scattata al tramonto a Miandrivazo. I colori sono quelli che ha colto la mia fantastica D200 che ha sopportato di tutto e di più tra TANTA polvere, umiditá, scossoni, caldo, freddo e a fatto maramao alle zanzare ;)
Era proprio cosí incredibile questo momento.
Il giorno dopo abbiamo iniziato i tre giorni in piroga sul fiume Tsiribihina, una delle esperienze piú belle della mia vita.
8 ore sul fiume largo circa 500m, in una "canoa" lunga 7 metri e larga 70cm.
Solo i suoni della natura e della pagaia del piroghiere. RIuscite ad immaginare quello che si prova? :) E' una sensazione indescrivibile, ma sono certa che molti di voi capiranno esattamente quello che non riesco a dire a parole.
E' un misto di pace, serenitá, GIOIA, completezza. E molto altro ;)

[Excerpts]
14 July 1861
Camp Clark, Washington [D.C.]
My very dear Sarah:
The indications are very strong that we shall move in a few days -- perhaps tomorrow. Lest I should not be able to write again, I feel impelled to write a few lines that may fall under your eye when I shall be no more....
I have no misgivings about, or lack of confidence in the cause in which I am engaged, and my courage does not halt or falter. I know how strongly American civilization now leans on the triumph of the Government, and how great a debt we owe to those who went before us through the blood and sufferings of the Revolution. And I am willing -- perfectly willing -- to lay down all my joys in this life, to help maintain this Government, and to pay that debt....
Sarah my love for you is deathless, it seems to bind me with mighty cables that nothing but Omnipotence could break; and yet my love of Country comes over me like a strong wind and bears me unresistibly on with all these chains to the battle field.
The memories of the blissful moments I have spent with you come creeping over me, and I feel most gratified to God and to you that I have enjoyed them so long. And hard it is for me to give them up and burn to ashes the hopes of future years, when, God willing, we might still have lived and loved together, and seen our sons grown up to honorable manhood, around us. I have, I know, but few and small claims upon Divine Providence, but something whispers to me -- perhaps it is the wafted prayer of my litle Edgar, that I shall return to my loved ones unharmed. If I do not my dear Sarah, never forget how much I love you, and when my last breath escapes me on the battle field, it will whisper your name. Forgive my many faults, and the many pains I have caused you. How thoughtless and foolish I have often times been! How gladly would I wash out with my tears every little spot upon your happiness....
But, O Sarah! if the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you; in the gladdest days and in the darkest nights . . . always, always, and if there be a soft breeze upon your cheek, it shall be my breath[;] as the cool air fans your throbbing temple, it shall be my spirit passing by. Sarah do not mourn me dead; think I am gone and wait for thee, for we shall meet again....
[The war began one week later on the plains of Manassas, Virginia. Major Sullivan Ballou of the 2nd Rhode Island Infantry died there at the battle of Bull Run.]

saper scalare una strada in salita e' forse la cosa piu' semplice di tutte, restare in cima e' quasi impossibile..
know how to climb a road uphill is perhaps the most simple thing, remain at the top is almost impossible ..
Sorry... I'm so busy in this time :(

The images here were the cooperation between Reg & me. The origial photos are from Reg, and I took a series of post adaptation experiment. You will see different kinds of retouching skill and style within. I would like to present how much possibility of one man's image can be adapted & reached.
