Hello, loyal readers and new comers :) These few months have been so hectic and full of various assignments, that I had to leave aside this small but exquisite blog (how modest of me!) for a while. Today is already or still spring. I invite you to read about human fingers, to admire a beautiful photograph of Brussels’ (sometimes) lonely streets and listen to a beautiful piece from Philosophy Of Sound, which delivers not only beat for the feet but also food for the soul. - See more at: http://www.hancu.com/dailyblog/2014/03/21/show-me-your-fingers/#sthash.qQGtEMWx.dpuf

I have recently shared some news about winning an honorable mention from IPA 2013 for my wedding photography. I am now flattered make another announcement: IPA has awarded another honorable mention to my work. As good movies have Oscars, great photographs have IPA. The story “Fashion Hysteria” shot during three days of Fall/Winter Paris Fashion Week (2013) has received the Honorable Mention in Deeper Perspective category. Please find the whole set of photographs and description in Italian and English here: http://www.hancu.com/#/editorial-and-assignements/fashion-hysteria And one of the first appearances here http://www.leiweb.it/moda/star-e-news/2013/fashion-hysteria-blogger-fotografi-parigi-fashion-week-401320186026.shtml#center The idea behind this piece of reporting belongs to my dear friend Michele Ciaverella, the Fashion Director at RCS – Rizzoli Corriere della Sera. Michele is the great mind behind a lot of fashion (and not only) editorials and has done styling campaigns for Louis Vuitton and others alike. You can follow his inspiring work from the catwalk by accessing the following link http://www.leiweb.it/moda/sfilate-moda/ Thank you for reading carefully the whole story on the links above, sharing it and “like”-ing it. ABOUT IPA: The 2013 International Photography Awards received nearly 18,000 submissions from 104 countries across the globe. IPA is a sister-effort of the Lucie Foundation, where the top three winners are announced at the annual Lucie Awards gala ceremony. The Foundation’s mission is to honor master photographers, to discover new and emerging talent and to promote the appreciation of photography.
