The sun was still midway through the horizon and the air around was still quite comfortable, brisk but not too much, for I had been walking up a small hill, fully equipped with my 75-300, the smaller 18-55, the flash and the 28-200 Tamron beast of a lens (My fav ). well by the time I wrote this sentence the sun had risen a little bit more so I had to stop and shoot a good intro for this post.

The official opening held at the Bir Mula Heritage in Cospicua on the 26th of March launched not only a collection of twelve black and white images depicting Cospicua at night but also a story of how the past of every one of us has an effect on our surroundings.
His excellency Dr Ugo Mifsud Bonnici made an official opening followed by Kevin Casha, who both gave their point of view from different perspectives.
I would like to thank amongst all Dr Ugo Mifsud Bonnici, Kevin for his openness and positive critique, Godwin Darmanin for promoting and handling the organizational process before the opening, John Vella for hosting this exhibition at the Bir Mula Heritage, and last but not least My wife for her patience.
The exhibition will be available for viewing till the end of July. Open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 AM till 12:00 PM or by appointment on info@birmula.com.
This is the video taken during the exhibition thanks to Christopher Bugeja.
For another year the Notte Bianca 2009 event will be held in Valletta on the 3rd of October, all through the night till early morning. The event will give an opportunity to the local artists to portray their works and share their inspirations with the general public. On this event most cultural and historical places will be open for public including the Casino Maltese originally called “Casa Del Commun Tesoro”, meaning the house of the national treasury.
Once again this year I will be exhibiting some of my photographic work at the Casino Maltese in Republic Street Valletta. Item 44 on the official Notte Bianca 2009 program is the exhibition “Reflections”, between reality and thought. An exhibition that brings together common reflections with ones that occur through meditation and thought.
You can visit the exhibition from 18:00 to 02:00.
Another exhibition that is currently on display “La Capitale In Chiaroscuro” will also be open for public at the Trattoria Omerta. Twenty one images, in black and white, all about the capital city of Malta, Valletta. For further information about this exhibition please click here.
Your visit to the exhibition would be highly appreciated.
They ran away, far from where I was, away from the silence of where I stood. The sun hath already been warming the other hemisphere of the planet and I could almost sense the nightly cool breeze of the Mediterranean. A yellow light was enough for me to appreciate this city in its most magnificent moments cuddling me in its warmth.
Once again I wait, for a moment, for an instance, for a shot. I wait for this is the only task I can reach, the only instance I can achieve, the only time I can be myself. My senses are not as alert as they should be but aware, enough to know that I am not alone.
