Incantevole Italia, photographs by Mikyoung Cha
Mikyoung Cha is a graduate in Oriental Painting from Hyosung Women’s University, Daegu, South Korea. She has participated in a number of group art exhibitions in South Korea and Japan. In 2016 she took up photography – the camera becoming her paint brush. This globe trotting photographer is a regular contributor to Live Encounters Magazine.
In February this year I travelled across Italy, making brief stopovers in Milano, Venezia, Florence, Rome, Pompeii and Sorrento in Napoli.
These nine photographs are from a series that I took of this ancient land that was once the heart of the Roman Empire.
