This is an amazing story. The story of a lazy assistant who misplaced a box full of film, outside, exposed to the weather, the heat, and the bugs.

This is my semi-serious biography, written in 1992. It narrates my beginnings as a photographer, first as an amateur then as professional. It is especially targeted to those young people about to embark in this tough but beautiful profession. In order to break through, they will have to overcome great obstacles, because of the competitive nature of this field: nobody dreams of becoming a butcher or a pastry chef nowadays, but many want become photographers. Just remember that, before them, we have all had our fair share of experiences, failures, sufferings, and gaffes.

They are very finely hand carved and they have a unique charm, but, to this day, they are still pratically unknown. A wonderful exhibit, "The Medieval Ivories Enigma", introduced them to the public.
