My name is Davide.

I live in Tursi, Southern Italy. Photography is one of my favourites hobbies. I used to use a simple digital camera, a Sony MVC - cd500. Five megapixel, optical zoom 3x and Carl-Zeiss lenses. It's a nice camera, with a lot of settings; it used mini cds to store data but they're very hard to find (!!!), because that was the last model from Sony with that option. I have some point&shoot cameras (P32, S90), also from Sony. Recently I switched to the DSLR camera world. Now, I use a Canon EOS 400D, a wonderful toy. I'll wait patiently money and time for a good Nikon DSLR... probably even more professional ;)

I'm 19, I love english language. It helped me in a number of situations, and still it's useful everyday with computers and internet. English is the standard in the era of Information Technology, right?

My computer is an "old" -but still working- Intel Pentium 4, 2,4 GHz, 1,5 GB of RAM and hard drives. I have a beautiful LCD from Samsung (17 inch). I'm also an iPod user (4th generation, 20 GB & 5th generation, 60 GB) and I really like iTunes, from Apple.

I created this site with Macromedia Dreamweaver MX and Dreamweaver MX 2004. Powerful software, but there's a lot to study about it!

Enjoy.

- One more thing... if you can, "volunteer" your pc for the research @ World Community Grid : it uses your idle PC time to work on tasks, like better HIV therapies. But that's just an example. Working together, we can make up a better world, for everyone! Thank you.

- My inspiration is Joe's website. Great pics. (thanks Tom!)

Here's to the crazy ones.

The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers.

The round pegs in the square holes.

The ones who see things differently.

They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing that you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things.

They invent.     They imagine.     They heal.

They explore.   They create.        They inspire.

They push the human race forward.

( Maybe they have to be crazy.

How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?

Or sit in silence and hear a song that's never been written?

Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

We make tools for these kinds of people. ) not in the adv

While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.
