Photography is among our most common daily activities, yet depending on the tone, position, subject, zooming we want to give, every shot can have a different meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, there are artists out-there who can see beyond and give a rationale meaning to their shots, exploiting them to communicate to the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photography can be the most saturated market to compete. But Giacomo De Franchis<\/a>, Italian photographer, seems to defend himself really well, turning his child-hood passion in a truly creative outlet designed somehow to shape his surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IF not clear, Giacomo is a naturalist photographer documenting the intersection of wilderness, human journeys, and conservation <\/em>in the most immersive way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I asked him, What is your first application for photography? How your passion for photography was born?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He replied. I started really young, in 4th grade. I had an amazing Science teacher, Prof. Tombi, who assigned us with a bird watching project. Together with a class mate, actually the most famous naturalist photographer in Italy, we got passionate about nature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being educated with a strict education, I got used to stay outdoor and easily I could get closer to nature and animals. I spent most of my adolescence, from 11 to 16een, learning about the enchanting world of nature and animals. Together with my friend, we studied our surroundings in a more detailed way until at one point, we started documenting what was under our lenses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was 13een, when I first received my brand-new camera, and I started using it mainly for shooting local events and raise money as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, my passion for photography was born as a result of an urgency to acknowledge and consequently document what was studied. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
