Fotos by Laura Tedeschi - Asiago - Italy - December 2010
When my last day on earth will come, after my last glance at the world
I do not want any stone on my grave, for it too heavy would seem to me
Look for a tree, a young and strong tree, that’s the right stone for my grave,
I want to lie even after my death under that sky people say it’s of God.
And in winter, during the long rest, under my tree I will lie still alive
As if I were sleeping I’ll trustfully wait till I’ll awake one day or another
And in spring we’ll hear thousands of voices and that will be our rebirth
And I willl raise my fingers like boughs to that sky so full of mystery.
And in summer, if the wind does accept what ev’ry sprout is inviting to do
We’ll wave leaves like flags in the air and we shall sing songs of life
And so, together, we’ll live forever, but here on Earth, I and my tree
Always standing out in summer and winter against that sky people say it’s
of God
Francesco Guccini
Quando il mio ultimo giorno verrà dopo il mio ultimo sguardo sul mondo,
non voglio pietra su questo mio corpo, perchè pesante mi sembrerà.
Cercate un albero giovane e forte, quello sarà il posto mio;
voglio tornare anche dopo la morte sotto quel cielo che chiaman di Dio.
Ed in inverno nel lungo riposo, ancora vivo, alla pianta vicino,
come dormendo, starò fiducioso nel mio risveglio in un qualche mattino.
E a primavera, fra mille richiami, ancora vivi saremo di nuovo
e innalzerò le mie dita di rami verso quel cielo così misterioso.
Ed in estate, se il vento raccoglie l'invito fatto da ogni gemma fiorita,
sventoleremo bandiere di foglie e canteremo canzoni di vita.
E così, assieme, vivremo in eterno qua sulla terra, l'albero e io
sempre svettanti, in estate e in inverno contro quel cielo che dicon di Dio
Francesco Guccini

Che settacolo queste foto. Cieli stupendi da dipingere. Elvi
Nagyon tetszenek a képek! Szabadság, végtelenség - védtelenség is. Magány, félelem...
Szép napot!
belle veramente
queste foto
bello pure il testo che hai abbinato
ciao Michele pianetatempolibero
Stark and stunning photos, Laura.
J'aime les photos et l'idée d'être sous un arbre après la mort, on doit s'y sentir bien, et à l'abri de tout...
These are wonderful photographs, Laura. Thank you. The lonely, almost forlorn yet beautiful tree stands as a sentinel against the ever-changing sky. Somehow, it projects strength and the ever-presence of God.
Laura: estoy estremecida por las fotografías, de una belleza poética maravillosa, por si mismas me han hecho temblar y al leer el texto con el cual las acompañas he quedado saciada de arte, belleza, y sensibilidad en los detalles, que finalmente, son nuestros grandes pilares de vida.
Muchas gracias, entonces.
ABRAZOS DESDE CHILE.
Magnifica canzone per accompagnare delle immagini spettacolari! Grazie Francesco, grazie Laura!! Ciao!

I thank you Bruce...
Laura, These photos are so beautiful. I love trees and everytime I see a healthy tree cut down in the name of progress, my heart bleeds as does the tree's. I would love a tree as my headstone. I love the poem also...Hugs
Serenissima! I don't know if that's a real word, but it is the one that comes to mind as I gaze at these starkly beautiful photos.
Ciao Laura, immediata è stata la mia percezione di familiarità, in quell'unicità arborea esposta al suggestivo fluire dei cieli dell'Altopiano. Solitudine e timore passano in secondo piano di fronte all'armonia dello spazio e al misterioso e tranquillo silenzio della neve. Un abbraccio. Luigi.
♥Jan♥
Jan yes, it is so true, I think I know your love to trees, I can see that from your beautifull paintings dear Jan...
thank you so much
...louciao...
it is the right word, yes
thank you, so nice from you
bluoso
... hai proprio ragione Luigi e chi melgio di te puó capire le sensazioni dello spazio altopianese...
distesa di neve e cielo...
grazie Luigi di tutto cuore
liebe Laura, deine Bäume,
Bäume sind Gedichte,
die die Erde
in den Himmel schreibt.

das Bild von dir ist schön....

danke meine liebe Jasmin, du bist immer so herzig
This post is a bit sentimental
and it doesn't suits you, my dear
Laura.
I love your tree photographs.
Je t'embrasse!!

and the lyrics are touching...
thank you

Victor Mihiş
Thank you very very much!
Beautiful words...beautiful photo! I love trees...lone trees on hills particularly. I've never thought about having one where I'm buried...but what a fantastic idea!
Wonderful
work
thank you for sharing
These photos are beautiful, Laura, and the poem to go with them. The sky is so dramatic and the tree is such a strong survivor and great symbol of the solitary soul standing firm in the changing world...!
Thanks for sharing beautiful pictures and a great poem.
Greetings,
Berit.
You also make beautiful photography!
Well done Laura :)
Hi.. very nice compositions! the tree and i.. i loved it))
And beautiful words too)
Grande Guccini! efoto entusiasmanti!
Laura: ¡Me encantan estas fotos!. Son precioas. El texto no se queda atrás.Saludos.
Laura, a slick bit of cross processing in the third image...I'll work it out for myself.
The lone tree is a cliché but only because people love clichés. Nothing wrong with them if they bring joy.
Hi Laura.
Beautiful photography, well done. It is a brilliant subject for you to paint. All the best laura.
Vic.
The loneliness of a tree and his roots...
A awesome looking!
Congrats!!!!
What a tree, I love that tree, standing all alone, in several ways, it is beautiful Laura.
Bonitas fotos,reflejan muy bien esa soledad.El estar solo.
Bonito post.
Saludos
Poesía fotográfica!! Felicidades, Laura.
magnifique poésie qui prend beaucoup de valeur avec ces photos. Un de mes plus proches amis est lui parti trop tôt, aujourd'hui c'est l'océan qui est son partenaire. Avec un arbre je l'aurai senti plus proche de nous mais c'était un voyageur.
Excellent series with a beautiful backlight, and skies that seem to move, with beautiful tones.Saludos.
One that climbs the tall tree has won right to the fruit,,,M
these are lovely!!
very well done
Greetings, well I thought I was early to the party for once. :) Maybe I am early for the next party ;)
Hey great pics. Lots of moddyness, you know those ones with the diaphanous skies are my favorite. We don't have skies like that in Australia. We have thick clouds and bright light with hard shadows.
It's beautiful your clouds, they break up the light and make soft shadows. You are lucky.
Oh that photo down the bottom so magically suits the beauty of the words. It's spooky but in a warm way, like the tree.
see you at the next party !
cheers et hugs from Oz!
Love your tree, and the sky in the photos, and the words, they have me thinking now of those buried not as close to their God as you hope to be.
me encantó!!!
es verdad que no elegiría todas pero hay algunas que son muy bellas
y me ha gustado la última elegida.

è bello!
Grazie, cari Laura ;))
Hola Laura, preciosas fotos y espectacular texto, yo también quiero permanecer en un lugar como ese para siempre. Un abrazo
Il tempo e il vento sembrano essersi fermati per immortalare quell'albero che mi fa pensare al simbolismo della vita, rami spogli che racchiudono l'essenza preziosa della vita, rami nudi che attendono di risvegliarsi e vestirsi di nuove gemme, fiori e foglie, rami che si nutrono di rugiada e chiedono rinnovamento! Le parole di Guccini sono pura poesia che accompagnano questo tuo struggente post!
Bellissime e commoventi queste foto, bellissimo il tuo volto immerso nei pensieri e nelle sensazioni!!!
Ciao cara, ti mando un abbraccio!!!
Very beautiful expressionist photos.
Great art!

Gorgeous shots. You know, I think I like the lovely bones of a bare tree even more than a leafy one.
i like to take one tree in the countryside
