  • Hello dear Peppino, I really enjoy your wonderful albums. This one is also too fantastic. Life is full of beauty, we just have to notice it. And you praiseworthily show us the beauties of our planet by your marvelous photos. Many thanks for sharing. I'm so proud of knowing you. Thank you also for your so generous comments on my album about Iran, very much appreciated. Of course I have to tell that I didn't take some photos this album myself. Have a nice weekend ! Warmest regards, Fariba

  • Dear Peppino, thank you for your visit in my homeland..Also thank you for this wonderful albm I stumbled over again:)) You are made of a very special rare alloy from God's creation study, as you can get in the very soul of people and I see their eyes and soul how close they get to YOU while pose. A camera does not do SOUL JOB:)) A camera just clicks..to YOUR command...It replies to yoru feeling...takes over what you think and feel in that moment and brings the best out of people;))I was chased by artists all my life to pose...in my hometown to USA:))Iknow the feeling when you surrender your soul totally and want to open up your heart to the artist...That is yoru Soul Peppino...you create magic with your persona and they will follow you all over..I sure hope you make videos or photobnooks and teach classes as rare is the gift what you been bestowed from God..AT the end on my trip down here I feel I got a great gift knowing you...Blessed you are ...Hug..Marra

  • Hello dear Peppino, many thanks for all your wonderful comments on my ''snowstorm'' album, warmest appreciated. It was incredible, isn't it? During 4 days, we were blocked in the village, roads was impracticable, and we do not have suitable equipment here! We had sometimes such temperature (-8°C), it was the snow which was stunning... And beautiful! You have here a magnificent album. Rich, with wonderful portraits of people, you have a marvellous talent for that. Your gorgeous shots show us how they live, it was very interesting. This is really nice that you had so many wonderful travels to share with us, thank you! Every your album are a fantastic discovery of a remote country, superb and very instructive, a pleasure to look at! Dear Peppino, hope that it is not too much cold in beautiful Italia, thank you again for your nice visit, I wish you a magical day and all the best, warm regards, Genevieve

  • Peppino, I know this album is old, and yet your love of people shines through fresh and lively as I view it for the first time. Hope you have time to listen to "In the heart of the moon" by Ali Farka Toure and Toumani Diabate from Mali to create the mood of the Niger again. Maretha

  • Dear Peppino! Only you can make portraits like these. You have the talent to capture the right expression at the right time. The people just come alive in your photos. Your pictures are priceless, and your talent boundless. Once again, I am fascinated by your choice of location in Africa. It is obvious that you find Africa a compelling place to visit, and every time you come out with a special album. Thank you for sharing these pictures. Best wishes, Suresh

A bit at the time. Thank you for taking the time to look through my albums and comment on my humble pictures, I sure felt proud! I can't wait to see your next collection... Cheers! Marta

  • Hi again Pbonu...and another "Extraordinary Album"....full of pure emotion and beautiful cultural skills of the Dogon people...and those amazing huts and ritual dances..!! It must have been exciting being there...and away from the electrical world!! Are not they just beautiful races of people...and as for my admiration??...no words can express how I feel!! I remember when I first bought the African Women print for my loungeroom, as I knew, I just want an African feel throughout my home & I though...girl you could paint something!! When I looked at the print (which is now on my wall)...I just fell in love with it, and it is more about knowing that when you see sometime, that something and it touches that deep place inside, there comes that knowing that here is a special beauty to behold!! "YOU Pbonu", have captured just that with your simply stunning photos of pure natural beauty!! I would be completely honored if you would allow me to paint one of your beautiful African people as they are soo real, one can almost reach out and touch them,...as they have me!! I am aspiring to get my first art exhibition together before I go travelling...and it seems to me that..>>it may just be that I am painting such different stuff then I envisaged...and more that it is a little bit of different places from around the world!! My passion is for the amazing and breathtaking beauty of this planet and beyond...and now my sons have grown...it is my time get into my art and just go>>out into the Great Big Wonder of this world!! Please let me know re painting...as I would be sooo VERY EXCITED!! Like "jump up and down excited"..LOL!.. .Tks for sharing another amazing album..and have a really great day....Em

  • Hi, I am creating a quiz on cd-rom for teenagers (in Switzerland) and wanted to ask you if you would mind if I use your picture of Djenné Market in Mali for it; it would fit very well with one question. Thank you for answering me at: cberthoud@sad.ch Interculdial
