Piombino, Parco Naturale di Punta Falcone.
La mareggiata del 18 luglio 2009.
Da noi capita, di potersi godere il mare anche quando il maestrale picchia forte, le onde si fanno pericolose ma il sole splende.
Ecco cos'è che chiamo casa. Giusto per chi pensa che ci sia solo la fabbrica: qui, da casa, ci si va in dieci minuti a piedi.

Piombino, Punta Falcone Natural Park.
The July 18th 2009 sea storm.
It happens, here, to be able to enjoy the seaside, even if the northwest wind blows strong, the waves become dangerous but the sun shines.
Here's what I call home. Just for those who think there's only the steel plant here: I can reach this place from home with a ten minutes walk.

I spent a week in gorgeous Breathless Punta Cana Resort & Spa.
I posted this on Instagram. It's an Adelita, which was a drink creation of the resort. It was very tasty.
Población situada en las proximidades de la capital a orillas del Odiel, convertida en un centro turístico importante gracias sus maravillosas playas de arena fina y dorada. Cuenta con una oferta turística de calidad que atrae todos los años multitud de visitantes.
Dentro de su término se encuentran el Paraje Natural de las Marismas del Odiel y el Paraje Natural de los Enebrales de Punta Umbría, dos espacios naturales de gran interés ecológico.
Town located near the capital on the Odiel, turned into a major tourist center thanks its wonderful beaches of fine golden sand. It has a quality tourism every year and attracts many visitors.
Within its boundaries are the Natural Park of the Marshes of Odiel and the Natural Park of Punta Umbria Enebrales , two natural areas of ecological interest.
Punta Grosso is a ruin near the village of Štinjan which lies close to Pula, Croatia.
The location offers a magnificent view of the region and the sea, including Brijuni National Park.
I hesitated to get up there before sunrise and thought it would be to late already but I was rewarded for my early arise.
These amazing sculpted trees added another whole aura of mystery to the main city cemetery of Punta Arenas
I spent 5 days in Punta Rocas, 46 km south of Lima and from there I explored the whole area, from Cruz de Hueso (San Bartolo), over Santa Rosa Alto and Punta Negra, up to Punta Hermosa. In these locations one can find every stage of urbanisation and improvisation: from future projects to abandonment.
As I said earlier, I am interested in chaotic growings of the beach resorts south of Lima, along the coastal desert strip at the Pacific Ocean. Many sites are built where there have never been towns before, with no water and no vegetation. Absurdly, they are often thought and projected as what one thinks could be a typical caribean beach paradises. Many times, too, the projects remain as projects for years and years, or are executed but afterwards turn out to be inviable and unmaintainable in the harsh enviorenment of the desert and the corroding forces of the sea.
In this series of 25 photos I wanted the view of the ocean to be a common and uniting factor, as well as the overpowering presence of the desert - the sand, the dust, the salt and the humidity - and the colors of the sand, the dust and the salt and the taints and shades of the humidity - which alltogether condition the life and constructions of and in these places...
And furthermore, I wanted to show, how these resorts are conceived with their front towards the Ocean, all the while the Rear Side - that faces the desert is totally blind and death and somehow taken for granted, that no one will ever look at the back side of the houses - so it is a place of desolation and accumulation of garbage. That is, people now adays, unlike the pre-columbians, have no relation with the desert, which is conisdered a place of dumping, void and nothingness...
