I was born in Carrara, the historical city of marble, in 1939, in a family of hunters. The hunting I have been practicing, with immense passion, since early adolescence for about thirty years, has provided me almost all the tools to learn the behavior of wild animals so that they could approach and to attract them, and this has helped me significantly in the exercise of my next passion, nature photography, began about thirty years ago.
I have done this activity predominantly in Migliarino, San Rossore and Massaciuccoli, in Marches of Fucecchio, in Tuscany Maremma, in particular in the Keeping of Torre Trappola, in Versilia, in Sardinia, in the Cala Girgolu area, and during some trips diving in the Red Sea, Indian Ocean and Gulf of Mexico. I continue to attend the world of Nature. So diverse and balanced in his divine complexity, does not cease to procure new wonder at every closer look, new life feelings to reveal any detail of some of his very essence. And then ... There is a chance of take some pictures "inspired"
