SYDNEY & GOLD COAST, AUSTRALIA – Yes !! I am back after a whole month of travel in beautiful Aussie…. again ! (I know…. Australiaholic).

Exploring NYC: in love with every urban detail

street of New York

NEW YORK, NY – Almost 6 months have gone by since my trip to New York and I simply can’t get over all the interesting details in every street. I keep reopening the archive and looking for more pics to edit, as with time going by every photo of New York seems to acquire a special meaning to me :) I have always been extremely curious to go and see what it really was all about and now with the Christmas season approaching (with NY being the set of about 90% of all the Christmas movies…) it’s time to watch Serendipity over and over again :P This year though, it is different to watch it because for the first time I have actually been there :) xx

Exploring New York: on a walk to the Top of the Rock!

New York 7th Avenue  with vintage glossy magazine edit

NEW YORK, NY – That day on Top of the Rock!! :) For me, possibly the best experience in NY has been to go up the Rockefeller Center (the Empire State Building would do too) to see the view of the entire city from above… so crazy and charming! :) You can hear all the noises from the traffic, construction work, etc echoing up there, pretty funny… I wasn’t expecting this :) It really makes you think of how many people are out there doing their jobs, or rushing around, meeting someone, spending time with friends, …. so many lives, events and dreams intertwined among the streets of NY! xx

Lake Como ! :)

 

LAKE COMO, ITALY – Digging the archives today looking for pics of Lake Como for a client’s website I am designing and I thought I might share a few of my old pictures here :) Lake Como is seriously one of the most beautiful places on Earth, I highly recommend everywhere to visit it. But be warned, you might end up liking it enough to decide to live there for a few years like I did ;) In the meanwhile, sending some love ! xx

Queensland: fulfill your nature loving soul Part II

Surfers Paradise beach lifeguard hut 35

GOLD COAST, QUEENSLAND – Of course, the Part I of this post was only a tiny preview of the MANY Queensland loving photos that fill up my hard disk. Despite the places I have had the chance to visit afterwards, I am still obsessing over these pristine beaches and subtropical goodness more than anything :) There’s nothing like Australia, they say… for a reason ! :)

Queensland: fulfill your nature loving soul

Queensland gorgeous natural landscapePlants and pines along the coast

GOLD COAST, AUSTRALIA – The Sunshine State, doesn’t “only” have bright sunny skies and subtropical warmth to offer, I have found it to also be the ultimate destination for the real nature lovers (and treehuggers like yours truly :D ). The deep green of the plants, dark reddish brown of the land and golden tones from the sand can make a photographer go really really happy with this travel destination, and in some cases like mine … quite a little bit less happy about the amount of SD card storage available on hand. Pack wisely, you are gonna need more gigabytes than you think :P

Exploring London: the Big Ben (theory :P)

Dramatic Big Ben perspective

LONDON, UK – While the first time I saw the Big Ben in real life was on the DoubleDecker tourist bus (yes, really chasing photo opportunities in EVERY possible way :D), these are probably my fav images of it from this trip….thank you wind and fluffy clouds! Well, I actually kept walking around and around there for hours UNTIL a nice sky appeared, but that’s what photographers do, right? ;) Enjoy xxxx

Loving Nature: Araliya beauty

White frangipani blooms

QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA – Missing these beautiful trees from Surfers Paradise and their lovely tropical scent now that I am back in the Northern Hemisphere.  I went on a serious chase to take all the possible pics of them and these are my favorite. Also, their petals are soft as a cloud :) Just seeing them makes me happy… I hope you are gonna share this feeling. Call them frangipani, plumeria or araliya…. they are just the best to me :) Which ones do you prefer, the pink or the white version? Enjoy the pics xx

Mayfair, picture perfect streets of London

Beautiful houses in Mayfair, London with the typical black cab

Mayfair (as in Mayfair, London …not the Instagram filter :D) is such a perfect area to take your camera for a walk :) Battery charged, SD emptied, get ready for so many good looking and interesting details  it is gonna occupy quite a few hours of your time before you feel like leaving it :) I chose to take these pics with a 50mm 1.4 lens to add a little bit of dreamy effect to these already shamelessly pretty streets :) Hope you enjoy xx
