Benvenuto Messia


The scene is Martina Franca in Puglia, Italy in June last year. I was with a great group of photographers participating in Carla Coulson's fabulous Travel Photography Workshop. The gentleman about to run me over is Benvenuto Messia, a real character and a famous Italian photographer and film maker.

La scène se passe à Martina Franca dans les Pouilles, en Italie en Juin de l'année dernière. Je me trouvais avec un grand groupe de photographes qui participaient à un stage de photo vraiment fabuleux  de Carla Coulson. Le monsieur sur le point de m'écraser est Benvenuto Messia, un vrai personnage, célèbre photographe et cinéaste italien.

  2. If this gentleman is a great photographer, he sure knew the photo opportunity he represented for you and boy, did you seize it. I love the action here, the look on his face. If each photo should tell a story, this one tells a fantastic one !!!
