Umbria Una Foto al Giorno

During the last year there has been a lot of attention given to a page on Facebook, Umbra-Una-Foto-al-Giorno (Umbria, one photo each day).

Photographers have posted photographs taken in the Umbrian regione, from stunning panoramas to details of typical scenes in the towns of Perugia, Norcia, Trasimeno Lake, etc.

Hundreds if not thousands of photographs were posted, and a selection of the best of these photographs, 365 of them, were presented at Perugia at Sant'Anna Church a couple of months ago.

Now, the final book of these words, plus one photograph making them 366 has been published and presented just yesterday, Dec 17, 2016 at the stunning Nun Relais Spa in Assisi, during a presentation of the event in which all proceeds of the book will go to the people who have recently lost everything during the earthquake in the area of Norcia.

The following are some photographs from both the presentation at Sant'Anna months ago, and yesterday's presentation in Assisi. Here also is my photograph taken on the stairway of the Acquadotto in Perugia of a bicyclist who I caught while he courageously pedaled downwards on this famous landmark of Perugia.
