TITLE: The Mermaid

“Everything you can imagine, nature has already created it,” said Albert Einstein.
Immersing herself in her underwater world, a mermaid swimming in her world where you can breathe underwater.
I show the photos to the children and say, “You see? Sirens exist.”
I like to tell fairy tales.
I like to write them with light.

AUTHOR: Andrea Izzotti (Italy)

Andrea Izzotti is an italian photographer born in 1968. He works and live in Genoa, passioned of travels and nature he has visited some among the most remote places of the planet, always searching "fragments of reality" to capture. Its photo is, therefore, often the result of sudden intuition: little preparation and instant realization. "The nature is the best and the humblest artist, it’s up to us to try to pick up the endless differences of its proposals."
