Roller Hockey reloaded

Ubroker vs Lodi Roller Hockey

Terza partita di hockey a rotelle della mia vita. Inizio (forse) a prenderci la mano..e (forse) a comprendere qualcosa del gioco. Questa volta la Ubroker, la squadra di casa, ha sfidato il Lodi, campioni d'Italia nonché capo classifica. Nella mia beata ignoranza l'ho scoperto solamente a fine partita... Gli scatti finiti sono tanti, più di [...]

Pallacanestro Reggiana vs Unics Kazan

Shooting at a 7 Days Eurocup match is not that immense fun because there are strict rules about photographers' location. This means, still on the court but not too close to the baseline. And I absolutely love to place myself right below the basket, ground zero, with a wide-angle lens. Having said that, here's the [...]

2015 is going to end soon, and I am forcing myself to take a look back at the many photographs I have shot during these months - to find a reason to keep on working on photography, to study post-production, to recall the past that has gone so fast. My 2015 Lightroom Archive showed many [...]

Artefiera Bologna 2014

Two years ago I visited Artefiera Bologna for the first time. I was marveled by the creativity exposed and was really excited to be able to see all that creativity from very very close. During the last two years I was very lucky to have given the possibility to become an art student. It is [...]

Bologna la dotta

Every now and then I take the train from my hometown to visit Bologna aka "La Dotta" (the Savant) home of the oldest University in the world. Bologna is also known for its defensive towers (originally 180, now only 20) and its 38 kilometres (24 miles) of porticoes  in the city's historical centre (over 45 km (28 mi) in the [...]

Ferrara | silviacasaliphotography

Right before Christmas, I spent a whole day in Ferrara visiting my friends at Mobyt. Before meeting them, I visited downtown Ferrara during a very foggy and cold winter day. And to my surprise, I discovered a very old and calm town, full of history and narrow streets. Despite the cold I took many pictures [...]

Scandiano Old Lady | Take Two

As my "friend and editor" Ingrid, always says: "Casali sei una bestia!" - which translates more or less with "Casali, you are so gross!". She always refers to me as "gross" when it comes to developing and post-producing pictures. I am lazy, very very lazy. I do not study photography, I have not the patience [...]

The Trashcam Project

I am trying to understand how to take good pictures, spending time in learning how to post-produce them and then I see this very interesting pictures taken with a....garbage can transformed into a pinhole camera! ARGGGGGG!!!! For those of you who do not know what a pinhole camera is, further details are available at this [...]

Wilder Mann | Charles Fréger

I am still trying to understand towards which artistic direction my photography is heading to - I love to take portraits but I completely lack of fantasy as per "creating a project".  During this search for inspiration, last week end I have found Wilder Mann and I said to myself that a project of mine [...]
