We can see and understand beauty if we prepare ourselves, if we become predisposed toward it. The speed of today's world or the boundless power of the media cannot help us find beauty within and without.\u003cbr\u003e\n Only personal reflection and journey can lead us to beauty.\u003cbr\u003e \nWe're so accustomed to having eyes that perceive sunlight that we need to stop and reflect to understand that light is a beautiful phenomenon. We're so accustomed to sedentary, pre-planned vacations that thinking about walking in the countryside, by the sea, or in the mountains to observe nature becomes something to be organized, not spontaneous, and even tiring to practice. I mentioned light, which allows us to see, and the nature that surrounds us and which we must preserve for a reason. In fact, I'd like to know who would say the opposite: light is ugly, nature is ugly. I certainly don't aim to dictate certainties; I simply want to spark a reflection on the beauty that surrounds us.\u003cbr\u003e\n Thus was born the idea of ​​translating, transferring light and nature into photography with the desire to create a beautiful work, one that perhaps amazes!!\u003cbr\u003e \nLight is symbolized by the colors of the rainbow, and nature is represented by its complex, fascinating, and astonishing essence: the flower. My ambition is for the observer to marvel and capture the dream of beauty in the image.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Massimo Motta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56203273666946,"sku":"109418","price":996.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/img_8883_modificato-2_ridotto.jpg?v=1768317220"},{"product_id":"passeggero","title":"PASSENGER","description":"\u003cp\u003e This photograph is part of a series featuring anonymous people on the subway.
