Roberto Ballerini - traveling's articles concerning themself...

Today I received a request to use this shot of mine to represent the concept of "aspiration" in a presentation for a no profit educational institution: I feel very honoured, but what is an incredible combination is the audience for this presentation, deaf or hard of hearing professionals: I'm a professional and I have a deaf 2 y.o. child. Time to start a meditation on the concept of destiny.

A little collaborative game: can you help me find the most voted shots?

... and I am unable to decide which operator is more natural; all of them have drawbacks.

I'm downloading over 5 Gigs of shots from my memory cards. I hope I can show you a little bit of the fantastic Sudtirol mountains and locations in a short time. Only a little note to remark that I found some friends disappeared from Ipernity (and someone from Flickr too) during my vacations and I'm sad for a lost occasion to know them better. I hope Team Ipernity will read this and start to consider enlarging the team to have better time to market.

Tomorrow we will make a trip to Alto Adige/Sudtirol. Some days of vacation, before the usual medical check for our Anna Chiara. I will be back to Ipernity August 20th or 21st. Hope to have some new shots (but the weather seems to be an enemy...). Have a nice week. The voting for Best of Week - Week #6 is postponed to August 21st, of course.

I'm against having lots of rules. Considering we're a fast growing community, I will make no further tests on date of upload. I consider absolutely natural for an Ipernity newcomer to post shots uploaded on her/his first days, even if the upload date is outside of the week. No silly rules, no silly flames: let's have fun! :-)
