~As usual I finish the day before the sea. There is no end to the sky and the waters.~ Photo Gallery by Alessandro Catuogno at pbase.com

~As usual I finish the day before the sea. There is no end to the sky and the waters.~

I was born in Capri, a very small island floating like a green jewel in the gulf of Naples.
My ancestors were born in Capri too.
I have always lived here and I could not imagine living in any different place.
When you spend all your life surrounded by the sea,
you cannot help developing a special symbiosis with it.
I cannot express my feelings by words
I prefer to do it by my pictures.
This series is like a conversation with the sea,
which is always there to listen to me,
when I need to find my roots.

“An endless love affair between the mystery of the sea and its passionate admirer. ”

To my father Luigi, a fisherman of Capri,passed away in the 2002, but live in my soul.
