Camogli (close to Genoa) is a tiny jewel on North Italy shores. Squeezed between sea and Apennines mountains, Camogli inhabitants had to develop their town vertically. Narrow streets and up to 5-floor houses build up a real labyrinth for sunlight.

All pictures shot with D800 plus 70-200 VRII in the tiny time between swimming and enjoying the delicious seafood in Ostaia da ö Sigu’. No fornografy on ARTBorghi (forno in Italian means “oven”, fornografy is about shooting pictures of food on plates), so have a dinner there to experience the amazing taste of the Mediterranean sea.
