Note: The holiday is on line!
In the “trip” category, starting from THIS LINK
In a trip in southern Sweden, one of the charatheristic sights is the Göta Kanal.
Built in the late XIX Century, this 190Km long canal has boon its importance to link the Vättern lake to the Baltic Sea.
We met a pair of the 58 locks, where we could admire the perfection of the engineering works, opposed to the complete inability of the tourists to manage it.
The result was funny…
Undoubtedly, the locks are a good subject for the photos…

A good location to shoot a portrait:

Let’s start the summer holiday’s trip!
Of course, not in this very moment… but this is the first gallery to describe the trip Francesca and I had last summer.
It began in a outstanding night, the day before last Francesca’s birthday.
From Grenaa’s harbour, by ferry, til Varberg, in Sweden.
One of the brightest summer’s nights.
We waited briefly for the ferry, at eleven o’clock PM:

To leave the dock around midnight…

After some very cold days, finally we have reached the meltin point again… gaining a span of snow.
And today a warm, heavy, wet snow grab and hugs everything.

Of course, with a nice wheather like this, we went to Randers’ downtown, through the swamp along the Gudenå (the river that lead the sea here in the fjord).
Just out of home, the landscape was so:

And the swamp looks like a white Christmas lanscape…

Last September, at the beginning of the bad weather weekends (actually, it isn’t finished yet), the only choice to have a walk was going underground.
In the actual sense of the word…
We went to Mønsted (few kilometers east of Viborg), where there’e some old limestone mines, active til thirty years ago.
With about four kilometers’ path under the groundlevel, with many galleries and a pair of little river… mostly without any light.
At the entrance, there’s a completely useless map:
So, I carried my D700, some prime lenses… and I hoped the 6400ISO was enough…
Actually, I have a couple of photos with flash, but the atmoshere we breath is all in the ambient-light shoots.
All BW, of course, to keep the nice contrast we see.
Ok, let’s go in…

By andre_, on October 26th, 2009
As you can see on the top of the page, I’ve added a new section: The Trips.
As I’ve explained i that page, there are especially galleries, all from my trips.
A kind of “travel notebook“, by images.
The idea, for this section, is to have a “Summary” of the whole photo selection from a trip, leaving the posts only for something more specific (of course also from the same trip, why not?).
The first trip I’ve added, in this selectio have found room a lot of photos I didn’t put in the posts about London:
My personal idea of the “big city Visitors…
And a whole page about my “souvenirs from British Museum“.
And new selections will come…

Let’s start from here:

about the images All the images (almost) included into the Posts and Galleries are thumbnails. Click on the miniatures to see the full size (tipically 900Px).
This is… ...my personal site, created to share my hobby.
All the photos in this container are my own interpretation of the world in front of me.
Until now the results of my work were only for my closer friends, now all the guests have the possibility to see my photos.
I would be very glad to have comments, review and critics, and this new dress for my site is for that.
So, let's start to see MY GALLERIES...
