Photography, Italy, World and Food

Photography is my passion. I know I am not particularly talented, but I often make up for it with quantity, technology and enthusiasm.

Italy: Sestri Levante, Liguria and beyond

I am very lucky because my work often takes me to distant places, giving me the opportunity to photograph unusual places, landscapes and moments around the world. I photograph all kinds of things: food, places, the sea, everyday life and anything else that catches my attention, both in Italy and during my travels. My favourite subject, however, is the beautiful town where I live: Sestri Levante, in Liguria, with its wonderful Baia del Silenzio. Lucadea.com features a large collection of photographs of Sestri Levante, Liguria and Italy, taken over the years. Italy is also home to my photographs of the Sampdoria football club and its fans.

Travel photography from around the world

A large part of Lucadea.com is dedicated to photographs taken during my travels around the world. Over the years I have collected images of cities, landscapes, places, people and everyday moments from many different countries. Some of the more recent photographs were taken by me, while some older images were kindly shared with me by friends and acquaintances who helped make this personal archive richer.

Food, recipes and family memories

I also enjoy photographing the food I eat and sometimes simply taste. I like cooking, although I certainly would not call myself an expert. The site also contains a collection of recipes and family memories. Many of these recipes were written by Loris, my father, who sadly passed away. Whenever he felt inspired, he used to share his creations, culinary ideas and anecdotes with me. From time to time I also write recipes myself, with the help of my wife Dao, who shares interesting Vietnamese recipes. Explore the Food category.
