Well done, Gianni, I'm really happy for this achievement.
The pictures you have submitted, which I already knew very well, are among the best of your time-honoured production.
Cheers!

Jim, Tom, Stefano,
thank you all.
This award certainly helps my awareness of what other people consider as my best. Or my "signature", so to say. Which won't refrain me from experimenting and exploring in near territories, of course. But at the end of the day knowing is better than ignoring.

Thank you, Paolo, grazie.*
*The last photograph is praised by Paolo because he owns a print of it. This award surely turned him into a richer man ;-)
