evening!🕯
on the sirino day trip, it was like everything coincided for a second, and a story formed before my eyes.
here's the shots - like polaroids, a moodboard for a tv serie that your vcr couldn't wait to get the tape stuck for.
a sharply cut slice of americana eerieness, but made in basilicata.

so sorry for being quite the disappearing act these days. ive been feeling pretty indecisive as to whether i should show you pictures of bologna or continuing my red lake/sirino series. here's some views of lake laudemio resting still below the red leaves.

here's some pictures of johnny marr from his glorious last set of this tour. i felt incredibly lucky to be in his company this friday. he was all smiles, thanked us a hundred times for being there as fans, as a great crowd. totally shockwaved.

evening!🕯
brief pause in our almost-americana to show some marvel skies from the other day. i left for bologna to see johnny marr the morning after.
i just couldn't stop thinking how electrifying were these clouds gliding on water, and the moon flaring them with her light.

the pics from yesterday were the view at the end of a tough hi-inclination trail; after stumbling at every step going up, and almost slipping to our demise going down, we called it quits & went for lunch. here's some pics of it & the small clearing around it.

might be i just finished an ep of the x-files, but there's something echoing of fall-time americana in these views that's almost disquieting.
would expect to see aircrafts never seen before flying past among the fog, & getting mobbed by the army thereafter.

billy shrapnel's spooky season time has begun! a few shots of the foliage blushing as the fog comes by for a brief visit - invading & leaving in a matter of seconds, then repeat.
the fog where you are whispers: thank you for your love on my latest art 🧡

this hallowe’en the door between our worlds has opened, and brought me a piece from my past, for me to twist & tear .
messrs @lespattinson.bsky.social and @willsergeant.com along with ian mcculloch glare at your ghostly soul from the dark dungeons at eric’s, waiting for voodoo billy to set fire.

evening ! 🕯
have been recovering from a slight bit of feverish illness so i collapsed before posting time yesterday, but here we are!
some more romantic views of the garganic coastline. a dreamhouse sat behind us on the viewpoint and i thought, how lucky to start the day with.such a view!

we are nearing the end of our time travel back to the gargano, so i'd love to present you with the coastal gift the adriatic sea offers to any visitor coming in from the south. a viewpoint, a tower dedicated to st.felix, and marine blues taking over your eyes and senses.

here's a few games of lines in perspective, taken pre-lunch on the beach.
taking this occasion to gather all this nostalgic warmth and convert into words significant enough to express how glad I am to know you all.
under the big blue sky i am real and alive!

evening! 🕯
it's wide shot time!
some messy sea views from my boardn by my phone in its scuba prison.
very Very sorry for the mega skip i took these days; everything is getting hectic but for the first time in life i am letting love waft over me like gentle seawaters do.

evening🕯
here's a vision off the viestean cliffs i caught while paddling w/their guidance on the side.
after the most de-affirming hell of a day, i decided to return you something beautiful, as i retreat into my memories + dream for 5 mins i'll be back feeling Complete.

here's what my eyes caught while speeding from vieste past peschici, directed to our chill little stay. the sun in may and september makes everything shine so hard w/ this radiant deep gold hue, drawing a high contrast with the sky's purity. a gift that keeps on giving.

this lilac sunset hour embraced our place as we settled and took the time to unwind after the long trip. i decided to scour around the property, letting my senses marvel at these rarely seen hues, under the olive trees shining in silver.

late post tonight as ive been out all day, sorting out gastro-issues + related trip to the apothecary's. i already knew you deserved to see these quick stills. you'd expect life to wane from coastal towns in september, but it was def not the case here.

evening 🕯
here's a few instants captured while motioning through rodi; everywhere i looked, a romantic tinge embroidered all i laid eyes on. a poem on the wall, a loveful lair touched by the waves, a couple talking, a twine of growing leaves. bring it on i say.

no idea!! the harbour was absolutely enchanting, but there was no soul around except for thw staff of a bar closing, and two art collectors in this enormous museum of pretty things.
October 15, 2025 at 10:27 PM
evening!🕯
come walk uphill with me, from this silent harbour to the city centre in rodi, and trade the foggy fall skies w/the last night of summer. it was so clear you could see the stars even under the mid-white LED lights flashing on the walls of the old town.

mothing makes little billy more nostalgic for the sea than realising the frolick back in time to the two days at the gargano reached the evening before, when we landed at the port to look at the boats dancing peacefully under a sky all hung with jewels.

after so much lingering in the towns of the gargano, i'm pursuing this journey back in time w/ some quick takes that should encapsulate the sense of peace in our accommodation.
silence wrapped us all around, only embroidered by the birds singing!

a very late post tonight, hoping to enthrall/entice your eyes with a teaser from the nexterpiece, made w/ love by yours truly. i haven't been delving a lot into properly made fan-art, mostly because i dont get enough time on the device, but also cos I feel my spot's been brilliantly taken.

last selected moments from our visit in peschici. no town i've seen touched my heart like this one does. it leads your curiosity in and out of its cozy little streets, and when you go, it leaves a dot of its white painted into you to remember it forever.
