Luca Benini : Fine Art and Nature

I always strive to take photographs that express my way of seeing the world. The important thing for me is that people who see my photos experience the same feelings that I have felt at the moment I made the photograph.

My name is Luca Benini. I’m 29 years old and I live in Ravenna, Italy.  I bought my first DSLR a few years ago out of pure curiosity and since then I have not stopped taking pictures.  I embarked on the path of landscape photography, learning photographic theory from magazines and by following in the footsteps of some great inspirational photographers.

I always strive to take photographs that express my way of seeing the world.  The important thing for me is that people who see my photos experience the same feelings that I have felt at the moment I made the photograph.  Following some good contest results last year, I am now proud to be sponsored by Lucroit and Sunwayfoto.  I returned last week from Scotland where I tried to take some unusual views.  I hope you enjoy them.

Fotopoesie: The backstage story of a photo book

An image only makes sense if it "sees the light" and if it is seen by someone. Otherwise it would be just a visual thought. In my opinion, the best way to bring an image to life is through a book.

Let’s turn to the human being by Nikita Petrov

Let's turn to the human being - the most beautiful creature our world has to offer! It is a well-known fact that in ancient times, the human being was worshiped more than ever. Ancient Greek and Roman gods were, in fact, human given their passions and sins. The human body was regarded as a work of art!

The fashion photography is not only about nice clothes, fashion magazines and advertising.It is not ‘a portrait of someone wearing a dress’, as David Bailey described. For me it is all about the feelings. In the photography as in real life­ everywhere we need deep emotions, we desire big love, to be able to create something miraculous.
