In the enchanting photo taken at sunset near Cap Canaille in France, an umbrella pine stands majestically against the backdrop of a breathtaking Mediterranean scene. The tree's iconic silhouette frames the vibrant sky, which is painted in hues of orange, blue and purple as the sun dips toward the horizon. Below, the calm waters of the Mediterranean reflect the warm colors, creating a shimmering pathway that leads to the distant island, softly illuminated by the fading light. The atmosphere is serene, evoking a sense of peace and wonder, as nature's beauty unfolds in this picturesque setting.

Curious about the world around me, I am an eternal learner. My scientific training as a geophysicist and my long-standing interest in art, literature and poetry inspire me to observe the world through my camera.

My scientific background has given me a deep understanding of the natural forces that shape our Earth, and it enriches my approach to photography, allowing me to reveal the magic hidden behind every landscape, every rock, and every cloud.

Inspired by the masters of painting who mastered the art of chiaroscuro, I seek to create images that capture the very essence of light and shadow.
