Rather than holiday magic, Bert Behnke remembers photographic magic in this article about his experiences with an Italian photographic convention: Orvieto Fotografia. Have you ever wanted to experience an overseas photographic convention? This might be the one that beckons you closer, especially after you hear from Bert. Get ready to plan a 2009 visit!

Sharing My Orvieto

By Bert Behnke

Orvieto...the name alone makes me smile and want to go back.

Do you remember the first time you put a sheet of paper into a mysterious solution and watched magic appear under a dim yellow light? That was when photography first became magical to me. Of course, for those of you under thirty-five, that magical moment was when you downloaded your images and put them into PhotoShop--same feeling, different generation! Such feelings can also extend to events and places that become tied to your very soul through photography. That's where "my Orvieto" comes in.
