Langhe (Jun 24, 2004)
Shot this summer somewhere in the region of Langhe, in Piemonte (northern Italy. famous for its wine). We stopped the car in a side-road and just started to take pictures... the place was very peaceful. While we were there, an old guy on his bike stopped and asked Mayli what was that I was shooting. We said the landscape, that was very beautiful, and he looked surprised... Then he said that he moved there when he retired, after a life as a automotive worker in Torino (in Fiat, when people worked for real, as he said). With his savings he bought a small house and a little plot of land to produce his wine. He was going home after tending his wineyard, because he was feeling a little chilly (it was the middle of the summer, and in fact it was very hot).
