New Year's Eve on the mountains with good friends and fine food.
The best way to start this 2012.
Happy New Year everyone.
Happy New Year everyone.
merry christmas

Hope you're having the loveliest holidays. We have nothing planned yet for the New Year's Eve but
hopefully we'll manage to spend a couple of days on the mountains with friends.
There's nothing I crave more than a cosy fireplace with snow falling outside.

A master craftsman busy painting a presepi figurine in Via San Gregorio Armeno, Naples.
There are a few places where you can feel Christmas mood so deeply.

The street is best known as 'Christmas Alley' not by chance.

These are from the wedding inspired photo shoot we posed for in one of the last warm days of the year.
I'm particularly proud of Stefano's bow tie I made out of recycled Christmas ribbon, I must say.
a day at the museum
November 10, 2011
Some shoots taken at the
Museum of Zoology in Naples, an amazing place we were totally unaware of
since a few months ago - it's definitely one of the hidden gems of the city.
If you happen to stop by check the guestbook: our names will most likely be there. More than once.
Come to think of it, I could actually live there.

Me and my fluffy one Chicco, in one of his rare moments of stillness.
He sure is huge and greedy but all that pudge hides glorious nordic muscle.

It's been quite busy over here in the past few days. Our friend Chiara is opening her own studio and asked us to take a few promotional shots in the amazing setting of the Royal Palace's English Gardens here in Caserta - I will be posting a few of them soon.
In the meanwhile, you can now follow us also on Instagram - just look up for username thewildbunches. See you there!

Bits of my birthday.
(next time I will try a more tempting topping, I swear)

I had the craziest week dealing with college bureaucracy and stuff, psyching up for the upcoming classes.
On the other hand I had a really lovely birthday yesterday, crowned by my first ever attempt in making cupcakes - and they were actually good! But more on this later.

This cutie here is one of the newest member of the cat colony that I've been hosting in my yard for some time now, despite grumpy neighbors. He's always been hyperactive and playful and the first to greet me everytime I brought them food but suddenly one night he appeared weak and uninterested, so I freaked out.
I must admit that I really took these stray cats at heart so that every sign or change makes me suspicious, even when I shouldn't. But this time my worries proved right when the day after I found one of the kittens dead and him standing alone in the corner all curled up, sick and unable to move.
Still shaken from what happened to the other kitten and fearing that they might've been poisoned I understood that I had to do something if I wanted to save him at least.

Finding an open vet on a saturday night was a lucky break but they didn't give us much hope: he had fever and was severely dehydrated, and though not ruling out poisoning they diagnosed a viral infection.
But the little one was full of surprises and the very next day he showed already promising signs of recovery though still having trouble breathing and eating.
A quiet recess on my balcony sheltered him for five long days with us going back and forth from the vet for the therapy. Watching him behind the bars in his little cage was painful and sad but we found comfort in the thought that he somehow knew we were saving his life.

I took the picture above right before setting him free. He sure was terrified but staring at his eyes, so bright and eager, we felt that all of our efforts had been widely rewarded.
Someone told me that "Nature has its own ways", that I should "let things be".
But to me the only thing against nature is not to care at all.

Those eyes will always remind me that.

You've surely heard of Michela Heim, a talented Oslo-based photographer whose work can be easily found all over the internet. Well, she's not only incredibly talented but also extremely sweet: she was so kind to send me one of her lovely prints that on her Facebook page I indicated as my favourite to be printed.
How cute is she?
As if that weren't enough, she's also such a cat enthusiast, as you can see if you browse through her amazing portfolio, and for me, proud owner of a Norwegian Forest cat, it's impossible not to love her.
