Carlo Ch's photostream

CollectionsSetsGalleriesTagsPeopleMapArchivesFavoritesProfile

I work in Information Technology. I have been interested in Yoga and meditation since I was 14. I am a regular visitor of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram and Auroville. I practice Vipassana and I teach Hatha Yoga. My interest in photography dates back to 2003, when I felt the need to document the events I was attending to.

I often remove my photos from the main stream. To see all the ones that were once public click here.

"Dei ritratti di Carlo mi colpisce innanzitutto l'umanità, ha uno stile discreto ma a osservare bene le sue foto ci si accorge presto che nulla è fuori posto, nessuna nota stona e l'aspetto tecnico è sempre curato.
Mi piace il modo gentile in cui le sue foto comunicano, senza ricorrere ad artificiosi espedienti o visti e rivisti clichè del bianco e nero"
