Francesco Di Meglio. Thousand colors of a Castle

Francesco is a former financial promoter, still runs the Academy of Martial Arts Isola d'Ischia, who has always been passionate about landscapes, colors and photography.

 

At the age of eighteen he bought his first camera that has become "inseparable friend" over time.

 

Through photography, Francesco manages to capture nuances and details that capture attention and at the same time make people think.

 

His idea is to create images of foreshortenings and panoramas having as subject the Aragonese Castle of Ischia, seen from above, making use of the new vision of the drone.

 

The Thousand Colors of a Castle arises from the observation of the same subject, the Castle, which changes from day to day, from hour to hour, with its thousand facets and its thousand colors.

 

The Camera takes flight and the rendering used makes its photos a unique point of view, like paintings that speak of the beauty of the Aragonese Castle.
