Sergio Pessolano's photostream

CollectionsSetsGalleriesTagsPeopleArchivesFavoritesProfile

I joined seriously photography in the mid-seventies when I started recording the protests of those turbulent years. Then I found my specialization in Travel Photography, mostly regarding common people in all their everyday activities. My way of photographing is strictly “neorealistic” because I believe in the supreme beauty and the nobility of the little things, which very often slips our attention, as a look or a gesture. I also use of the strenght of the color for enhancing all this. I always used analogic Nikon equipment, but in 2005 I replaced all the analogic with digital.
Member of TAU Visual, the Association of Professional Photographers of Italy.

Honorable Mention in Photojournalism of International Color Awards.
Nominee in Nature of Photography Masters Cup.
Honorable Mention in People of Photography Masters Cup.
Winner of the First Prize in Nature of the Trierenberg Supercircuit 2007.

I hope you like my vision of the world.

"Sergio is one the best people photographers on Flickr. Whether it's a portrait or catching a moment in time , his talent shines through in every image."

Tommy Bass says:

"Sergio Pessolano is by far one of the best photojournalistic photographers I've seen on flickr or anywhere else. Sergio's photography puts the viewer right into the heart of the action yet he is still able to create and bring out all kinds of emotional elements that make his photos so captivating, incredibly interesting, and simply beautiful.

Sergio's photography takes the viewer on a journey through the human experience and no one does it better than him!!"

Felipe Trindade says:

"Oi Sergio!!! desculpe antes de tudo pela invasão de privacidade, mas acredito que o mundo tornou-se realmente muito pequeno com o advento da tecnologia e com isso veio estreitar mundos e pessoas. Sei que sua curiosidade vai fazê-lo traduzir essa mensagem e, com ela vai descobrir minha sincera admiração pela sua sensibilidade para a percepção.
fiquei muito feliz em saber que adicionou uma foto minha em suas favoritas, muito obrigado!

Abraço

Felipe Trindade"
