One of those photos that no one would propose
To link to the previous article, here is a photo that many would avoid sharing: blurred, out of focus, totally imperfect.
But aren't they photos that we all take a bit?
What does it matter to hide? I know how to nail the focus. I think I don’t have to prove it. But I am conscious that the process passes also though errors. I do errors. You do errors. Anyone does errors. Why I have to hide it? Maybe why do they tell you to show only the best?
What do we have here? A photographer who is not afraid of it. A photographer who photographs every day and every day proposes texts and photos.

Look at my work. Also in digital you can feel that film mood. That's where I'm from. From color film. From the snapshot I needed to know who I was.
And it still is.
