    @Fabrizio - thanks for visiting my site. Hope G@tto Giallo doesn’t push you too hard! I was inspired by your Luci d’Artista photos. They are superb. These were my first attempt at night photos.

    This is just to say have a look at NovaraDailyPhoto, good winter shots.

    (This fellow Fab would better go to the Balùn and basta !)
