shining is conceptual social photography blog that was born during a family trip to rome by my brother and i (he is the original shiner).
as a child i had to go to places like notre dame, the eifel tower and the statue of liberty with my parents, and to watch and hear them and all the other people around us being amazed from those huge blocks of stone that were built to show the power of some ego maniac who wanted people to remeber him.
as a consequence today i find no pleasure of visiting these kind of places, and often even feel sick from humanity when i see that those assholes who built those buildings got exactly what they wanted.
I feel that shining brought back for me the joy of being a tourist. on this trip to rome when my brother and i hanged around and took those photos we had a chance to act as normal tourists but to be very special at the same time.
i would like to see shining photos from famous monuments and buildings around the world, i would be happy to recieve pictures and post them here.
go and join the tourists!

Shining all over The Royal Pavilion in Brighton


Im happy to post this Shiny happy post after the depressing post of last week. This post captures everything that shining is supposed to be, we love life, we love touring the world and we love shining!
Brighton's Royal Pavilion was built by a king who built the place to look like the Taj Mahal and decorated it with chinese-like imitations. really tasteful your majesty!
