More than a year ago, I spent few days in Paris together with my family.

A “standard” short touristic holyday is not sufficient to learn and know Paris and its life, but can give the opportunity of visit some places among the most famous in the word; famous for arts, culture, history or only for recent social events.

An holiday like this leaves you full of memories. Among these there are pictures.

Airport Charles De Gaulle, Paris; July 2007

It is a city of quite 10’000 inhabitants, but the great part of the buildings, most of them low, old and made by wood, or the new ones, built in traditional fashion, make it more similar to a big village.

I was in Agadir, Morocco, during the January of 2004.

Fine climate and wonderful beaches; in summer it is a good place for spend own holidays. For people that has not familiarity with the geography of the region, Canary Islands lend themselves toward the Agadir gulf.

Digital photo cameras changed the way we can catch glimpses of the world. They allow you to take photos at no cost, preview them and, in case, discard the bad ones. There are no intermediaries between taking photos and enjoy them: no developing laboratories and printing processes. You download your photos to computer, store them into a CD or DVD, see and even directly print them. If you are smart enough in using computer, you can retouch your photos adding to them what you weren’t able to catch: once that was a matter for professional photographs. It doesn’t meaning that a digital camera change us in a professional or in an artist. For that, knowledge, expertise, skills and even genius are needed. Nevertheless, it is today more easy than ever to enjoy making photos, to catch moments of your real life and store them forever.

Today, a lot of people experience traveling...
