HD prints now available on px500
A selection of HD prints of some of my photos is now available - and growing by the day - on my 500px stream.
Due to the very high-quality requirements, no iPhoneography is yet available here; only analogue film (such as Lomoghraphy, Holgaography, etc), digital and Polaroid shots.
If you see something you’d like to buy there not yet available on the store, please let me know and I’ll see to make it available as soon as possible to satisfy your request.

Event: Ale Di Gangi guest at GGDToscana4
I have been invited as one of the guests for the 4th Tuscan GirlGeekDinner in Firenze on Saturday October 4th.
I am definitely thrilled to intervene and would like to thank the girls who so kindly invited me to talk about my experiences on Lomography, iPhoneography, videos and so on.
The event is open to girls only, and further details for signing up for the evening are about to be officially announced. If you are in Tuscany that day, you really should be there!

Recovered shot: Just about to fly (Anair)
originally uploaded on Flickr: July 2006
The very final moment of a vacation.
And today the very beginning, flying off again, heading to Barcelona.
I have been flying a lot in my life, and still every single time I am on a plane it scares the hell out of me - but then I always pretend I am the coolest cat on board…
Taken in Eindhoven using a Konica disposable panorama camera.

Recovered shots are a selection of photos I previously posted on Flickr that I consider worth of further exposure.

![Recovered shot: Dandy With Ermineoriginally uploaded on Flickr: March 24th, 2006
This lomopicture is subject of discussions amongst art historians, as some attribute it to ale2000 and identify it as the portrait of Mattia, lover of Simone. Others believe it is a work inspired by Leonardo [da Vinci] taken by an anonymous Ikea employee.
The face and the smile remind that of “Mattiangelo” and its preparatory studies.
Since various centuries ermins, weasels and martens were tamed as company animals and it is very likely that some would also be found also inside the Ikea palace. But knowing Mattia is lover of Simone and the latter has an ermin as an emblem, we can look at this animal from a different perspective.
The photo is known as the “<i>Dandy with ermine</i>” and features as the second main character a white-ish little animal, considered by everyone as an ermine.
But it was a stuffed ferret.
The reason for this is that the ermine is an aggressive animal which would hardly have accepted the long posing sessions the dandy had to undergo to be portraited by the photographer. Furthermore, the ermine stays white only during a short time of the year, while the stuffed ferret can be considered as a company animal.
We can then say that this wondeful masterpiece from ale2000 should not be titled the “Dandy With Ermine”, but the “Dandy with the stuffed ferret posing as the ermine”.
