color trees
Access the gallery and see all my color trees from the project Survivors (superstiti) and … as Trees cannot fly.
I would like to share my work with those who love Trees and Nature and with those who might discover that they love them through my shots.
To all I wish to feel the charge of positive energy and the great serenity I felt by embracing them
“Luca sees the world with the eyes of the Heart ….”
“Luca’s works are beautiful … his trees arouse poignant emotions!”
” your trees are stars, footprints and memories, and it seems to be able to look into our soul, to relive the lives of those we love, without end“
