Luca Anconetani
Born in Jesi, An,Italy (1966). I started with macro and travel photography during my childhood, then actually I shoot mainly about nature/landscapes views. For me photography is essentially a wonderful way to capture a moment, a light, a unique sensation trying to search always the perfect light or the perfect atmosphere. At first I used Pentax and Chinon cameras, now I have some Nikon\\\\\\\'s bodies such as d5200, d610 and d750.
Sometimes I send my works to National and International Photo contests
