La Camilla

Written by

Ero passato da Milano a inizio del mese, e la mattina la Cami mi aveva raggiunto in cucina mentre stavo lavorando, pestando sui tasti per comporre frasi in un idioma diverso, e parlando davanti a un occhio elettronico con paesi lontani.

Al solito silenziosa. Preceduta e seguita dalle feste di Nyla che, girandole intorno e passandole tra le gambe, le prende in bocca la mano e la mordicchia con l’affetto genuino e incondizionato che solo un cane può dare.

I gesti del caffellatte e le lunghe conversazioni senza alcuna parola che solo gli occhi possono fare.

Come non scattare 3 immagini su una pellicola che ho sviluppato poi solo l’altro ieri?

Ladies and Gentleman, boys and girls, la Cami (Leica M7, Summilux 50mm e Kodak TX400) …

It has been more than fifty years since I began traveling across the world — and the seven seas — for work or for pleasure, always with a Leica M camera close at hand. The camera has never been an accessory; it has been a constant companion, a way of observing, remembering, and making sense of the places and people I encountered along the way. I started keeping this kind of journal some time ago, not as a diary in the traditional sense, but as a space where images and words could meet. This is not a publication driven by schedules or algorithms. At times I disappear for long stretches; then, inevitably, I return with semi-regular updates. Publishing, for me, is a mirror of my state of mind and emotions. It follows my rhythm, not the other way around. You have to take it exactly as it comes. Every photograph you see here is mine. They are fragments of a life spent moving, looking, and waiting for moments to reveal themselves — often quietly, sometimes unexpectedly. This blog is not about destinations, but about presence. About what remains when the journey slows down and the shutter finally clicks.

    Povera bambina: costretta a truccarsi prima ancora del caffelatte per proteggersi dagli attacchi fotografici del padre!!!

    Che occhi. 🙂
    E non riesco a smettere di fissare le goccioline nella bottiglia.
    Bellissime.
