South America’s deadly jails – in pictures

The Italian photographer Valerio Bispuri  is one of my favourite, he spent 10 years in South America photographing 74 different prisons. These vast buildings are notoriously overcrowded, violent and filthy. Bispuri expected that – what he didn’t expect were the surprising moments of tenderness and even joy that he witnessed among the prisoners.

Have a look at his work

Black and withe passions

Last September I take some photos with my brother at his school, he is taking classes in order to became pilot. These photos were taken before an aviation show and my brother was one of the pilots. He accepted to pose for me, in the beginning the photos where coloured, but I decided that is better to make them black and white, so I used photoshop to do it. 12552569_937308539710173_2574566999931060998_n12439557_937308579710169_1236278694009826012_n12376374_937308543043506_1596709503997509300_n993845_937308573043503_2146513397858359461_n
