Nuvole e cielo, a photo by Arnaldo Pellini on Flickr. Nuvole e cielo, we say in Italian: clouds and sky. Was at Canberra airport waiting for my flight to Melbourne. It was mid afternoon and like the narrow strip of land at the horizon compared to the huge blue sky dotted with travelling clouds which disappeared far away under the horizon. They seemed touching on a transparent glass surface. I tune up the blues when […]
While waiting to board the flight to Melbourne I wandered around the transit area. I liked the morning light that was so good for black and white. Saw this man whom i imagined travelling all over the world, let’s say, 9 months a year. Business class traveller. Based in Hong Kong. Working in the financial sector. Looking forward to land in Melbourne for a week of meetings with bankers
I saw this with the side of my eye, in a glimpse. I turned and took the picture which is quite shaky, I know. Has a strange feeling when doing this. Seemed to me that the man was telling the boy “Listen to me!’. Maybe they were both tired of the long flight throughout the night or maybe he was just showing the eboy that a text message had arrived from mum back home. All […]
An Asian young man walking around, talking with his smartphone back home while in transit in Adelaide. “Yes, mum, all ok here. We will be in transit for 50 minutes and then continue to Melbourne. The flight? Was fine, nice flight from Hong Kong. Nice weather and many many movies in the TV system.’
She was on my flight from Hong Kong and in transit to Melbourne. I imagine she is studying in at University of Melbourne, maybe architecture and modern design. Her smartphone was ringing and she was reaching into her bag while I took the picture. Somebody calling from home? Which home?

Sunsets in Lembongan island (Bali), a photo by Arnaldo Pellini on Flickr. I was in Lembongan island east of Bali. a great sunset. I walked into the sea weed garden where during the low tide sea weed farmers work. The tide was rising as the sunset time approached. I wanted to take the a picture of the canal that seemed to lead into the sun when this surfer appeared out of nowhere. He was walking […]
Ieri ho incontrato Bartolo qui a Melbourne. È stato un incontro innaspettato dopo l’arrivo da Hong Kong, via Adelaide. All’aereporto ho preso lo SkyBus che porta al terminal in centro: Southern Cross. Lì hanno smistato i turisti diretti a vari alberghi della città. Il mio è Rydges in Swanston Street. Ci sono vari autisti. Tutti in bermuda blu, calzette bianche corte e scarpe da ginnastica nere. Una camicia a maniche corte completa la divisa. Uno […]

I was driving the car back home from the Robison mall. I decided to take a short cut and avoid the centre of the city. I passed on the bridge near the Chinese pagoda where the view of the sea is usually really nice. That night was even better. The moon had just risen. I stopped the car and luckily had my camera with me.
