The record cold winter has already frightened many. People massively buy warm clothes, heaters and fearfully read weather forecasters' reports for the next week. But there are also such individuals who find something beautiful in the abnormal cold. They describe frosts in poetic form, paint winter landscapes, photograph cities bound by ice and snow. We will talk about one of these creative people in our today's review. This is the Italian Niccolo Bonfadini, who has created an amazing collection of photographs of trees completely covered in a thick layer of snow.
Externally, the pictures look like a huge snow fountain burst out of the ground. Or as if majestic columns of ice lined the horizon. Ecologists say that such an ice shell will not only not harm trees, but also protect them from severe frosts. Niccolo Bonfadini himself is sure that only nature can create such beauty. That is why he prefers to shoot landscapes, each time revealing more and more beauty in the world around him.
The photographer lives in Monza (northern Italy), but on duty travels a lot around the world. Most of all Niccolo Bonfadini loves to shoot wildlife. Every month, an Italian climbs into some secluded, godforsaken corner to take some stunning shots and … take a break from the bustling city. By the way, city streets in cold weather also look quite picturesque. In order to be convinced of this, you can look at one of our past reviews devoted to the record cold winter in America.
