My overarching motive to create images embodying serenity is to wallpaper over a troubling world. I think for sanity's sake my work becomes more important every day. https://fineartamerica.com/featured/athenas-clearing-dario-impini.html #horse #nature #forest #sunrise

I was photographing an old vintage steam #locomotive on an isolated track one night. About 20 feet away there was an active freight track and eventually I heard the distant crossing bells and knew a #train would be coming. And when it rumbled past it was pretty alarming. Just the most massive ensemble of power and force that shakes your inner soul. I watched it go by in awe, like a child. I thought I detected that it started slowing down and eventually the tail end of it came to a stop right next to me. It stayed there, the rear #engine idling up periodically for some purpose I could not discern. It sounded like it was getting ready to leave, but didn't. It stayed and stayed, and I watched it and began to question myself... "Am I crazy enough to put a model on a live #freight train?" Certainly not. This is just a dream. https://fineartamerica.com/featured/dont-underestimate-me-dario-impini.html

Woke up hours before dawn to traipse through a snake and spider infested fireswamp in order to capture the serenity of this moment. https://fineartamerica.com/featured/2-sirens-dawn-dario-impini.html #lake #sea #yacht #mermaid

It was when I shot this pic for a swingers club on the west coast that I finally realized something was wrong. One of the people managing the club complained after the shoot -- why does SHE have to be naked? I actually shot it with her both clothed and nude; the owners chose the nude one. But I realized then I had to leave the west coast. They had lost the plot. I wasn't shooting a promo for grandma's church basement bingo gathering. This was literally a fucking SWINGERS CLUB. #woke #martini #cocktail
