About dailylife

I'm Luca, 31 and I recently took a life changing decision. After more than 6 years working in IT I quit my job to pursue a dream. I'm Italian but I've been living in many different places (Scotland, California, Switzerland and now London) and this has been a very difficult step because I left a stable income for something unknown.
Photography has always been a passion of mine but I had alternate success: my pictures were very important to me but this was because I knew what was behind each one of them, their story, how I got there and how I was feeling in that moment; I could also see that to an objective viewer I was not able to express my intentions. For this reason I decided to read more about photography, study articles and practice. I quickly noticed how applying the basic techniques in a methodic way I was able to improve the quality of my photos; this was surprising because it seemed odd that applying a mathematical formula was helping me to improve something that I consider artistic and creative.
I cannot stress enough the importance of practice and my next step is to dedicate more time to my photos, both traveling around the world or simply walking around my neighborhood.
