Some of the photos taken in a 6-day trip to Malta and Gozo, two Mediterranean islands, in December 2018.

Many of these photos have been taken in the western and southern part of the island, where the coasts create high and rugged cliffs.

Golden Bay, Għajn Tuffieħa Bay, Ta 'Lippija and Ħad-Dingli are just some of the immortalized sites. Hard rocks, with a harsh appearance but made of a soft heart that is continually tested by the wind and the sea, so as to scratch them and redesign their appearance.

The contrast between strength and tenderness is characteristic of the whole Maltese archipelago and can be appreciated not only in places, but also in people and their uses.

A final thank you especially goes to the wind and the clouds that have allowed me to savor and portray extraordinary colors of a beauty hardly reproducible with the camera.
