Photography was a sort of love at first sight for me.
Since my early years I often used to look at the reality with photographic eyes, meaning that everything that in my opinion could be considered somewhat interesting had to be filtered and analyzed by me in a subjective way. For this reason I like the "Creative Photography", taking for granted that I’m not interested at all to reproduce the reality with fidelity like many photographers do.
I like to to color the greyness of the reality and to give at the same time a clear significance to what I’m doing by means of the use of some metaphors, trying to stir up some sort of emotions.
Even if between EMOTIONS and REALITY there’s the barrier of the eyes (both physical and mechanical) and between SUBJECTIVITY and OBJECTIVITY there’s sometimes the barrier of the incomprehension, I like to wander through the routes of invention all the same.
The reality is so grey anyway, you know, why not make it more pleasurable and colorful?

"Sfogliare il photostream di Aquilant dimostra chiaramente come -a volte- siano labili i confini tra foto e pittura, tra realtà ed immaginazione... Ha il dono di una eccezionale sensibilità artistica, riesce a rendere il normale originale, l'ordinario straordinario; ogni suo nuovo lavoro è una avventura nel mondo del colore, della geometria, dell'arte. Non da ultimo, Aquilant è anche una persona sincera, amichevole e disponibile e lo ringrazio dell'amicizia della quale mi onora."

"Ciao Amico mio....
Che dire di Aquilant.......è una persona stupenda gentile e disponibile è uno tra i miei primi amici qui su flickr, e ci ho messo ben poco a capire che persona stupenda lui fosse!!!
Comunque ritornando a noi...è un grandissimo artista a mio parere, riesce a creare delle hdr e delle elaborazioni foto stupende,che spesso mi è capitato di soffermarmi ad osservare per diversi minuti senza poter smettere di farlo quasi INCANTATO!!...l hdr è semplice da fare.. ma molto molto piu difficile farla bene, scegliere la foto giusta il soggetto giusto,il modo in cui farla..etc etc e lui a mio parere è una tra le persone che lo sa fare DIVINAMENTE qui su Flickr!!!
continua a farmi GUSTARE le tue splendide opere amico mio e io sarò contento di poter dare delle botte di vita alla mia VISTA!!
Un Abbraccio
Il Tuo Amico DANILO :-)"9th January, 2011

"Pasear por la galería de Aquilant constituye todo un placer visual y estético.
Aborda todos los temas con una maestría inusual yendo desde los temas sociales hasta los más etéreos, pero siempre atravesados de una constante común: arte.
Especialmente me impactaron sus series del sombrero rojo; todo un alarde de modernidad contenida en las formas y en el fondo, en el mensaje del ser humano en su soledad y en su incomunicación.
Haberlo conocido es una de las cosas más hermosas que me han sucedido en estas virtuales páginas de Flickr.
Me siento orgulloso de ser su amigo y contacto.

"I have been browsing through your photos for sometime now and just wanted to congratulate you for such a colorful and creative collection! I couldn't agree more with your statement where you say "The reality is so grey, you know, why not make it more pleasurable and colorful?"
Thank you for brightening my afternoon :) Keep the creativity going!
I hope all your days be as colorful and happy as your photos! :)"17th July, 2008

"Deep thinker. Powerful sense of responsibility. Awareness of the international planetary ethos: sensitivity to our connection to one another here on Earth and our collective (very) poignant situation today and in the future.
Fine creative mind. Kind and open heart. Beautiful courage to speak his truth, generous Flickr friend, and innovative photographer. More and more I am having so much pleasure at visiting the stream of this beautiful person. Creative treatments abound here! Complimenti, Aquilant!!"8th February, 2008

"Aquilant has a different path to other photographers. He is a very unique kind of man..
His pictures provide a huge source of pleasure and purity...
He makes one slow down, just to absorb the beauty of his work and to enjoy the deapth of his colours.
Thanks for being a wonderful flickr friend !!

"There is no finer pleasure than in discovering and sharing a new vision, and so it is with Aquilant. From hats to rich colours, his vision is a truly unique and personal one. I count myself as truly fortunate to count him amongst my friends."

stefman75 says:
"Le fotografie di Aquilant sono dei capolavori non soltanto per la maestria nell'uso dei colori, della composizione, della tecnica, ma anche per la costante profondità che esse contengono. Le sue immagini sono vere icone del nostro tempo, frammenti di vita catturati in meravigliose creazioni artistiche, che stupiscono per la perfezione e per la costante riflessione che suscitano nell'osservatore. Nel set di Molly, che adoro tantissimo, con un'intelligenza ed un'originalità che gli è propria, Aquilant riesce a rendere persona un manichino, facendo trepidare la sua plastica di umani sentimenti pulsanti, comunicando attraverso di lui (lei) le inquietudini ed i sogni propri di una società, le paure ed i desideri delle persone. Ogni fotografia del set è un invito a lasciarsi rapire dalla bellezza dell'immagine, per poi andare oltre la composizione stessa. Attraverso le sue fotografie, Aquilant ci dona sempre un'originale prospettiva ed un prezioso momento per riflettere sulla vita."

"Aquilant per me non è solo un grande fotografo ma un grandissimo amico,i suoi lavori hanno la capacità di rompere con le convenzioni,riflettendo la vita oltre l'invisibile.Le sue foto sono padroneggiate da colori decisi,"autoritari",spesso entusiamanti!
Adesso,con tutta tranwuillità posso finalmente dire di aver conoscuto un grande artista!!!"11th December, 2006

"aquilant is one of the most imaginative photographers one can find on flickr - especially his series with people wearing hats and beach scenes are tremedous - they have the appeal of paintings and are somewhat surreal - i faved a lot of his works and i am sure, that he will keep up his high standard of excellent photography"
