From Lens to Postcard: Vintage Coastal Prints You Can Download & Enjoy

I’m taking a fresh approach with my blog, turning it into more than just a space for storytelling—it’s now a place where my photography truly comes to life. Instead of simply sharing images in posts, I’m offering something tangible: downloadable and printable vintage-style coastal postcards. These aren’t just any postcards; they’re carefully curated snapshots of sun-drenched beaches, turquoise waters, and charming seaside towns, all captured between the Caribbean and the Mediterranean. Each image reflects a moment in time, a place that tells its own story through light, color, and atmosphere. By blending nostalgia with digital convenience, I’m giving people the opportunity to bring a piece of these stunning coastlines into their own spaces. Whether for personal collections, travel-inspired decor, or even sending a handwritten note with a touch of vintage charm, these postcards offer a new way to experience and share my photography. This shift isn’t just about selling prints—it’s about creating an emotional connection to these places and inviting others to immerse themselves in the beauty I’ve had the privilege to capture. It’s a different kind of blog, one that turns photography into something both personal and collectible.

Snapshots: Afternoons in March

🔹Colourful coastal walks on a March afternoon with contrasting hues so vivid the eye is in awe of her splendid beauty.

Las Plassas, South Sardinia, Italy

We drove two hundred and thirty curvaceous kilometers to the tiny town of Las Plassas for their annual bean festival. We climbed the adjacent mountain for a bird’s eye view of this spectacular town, which has a population of around two hundred and twenty-three gracious and humble citizens.

Later, we walked the cobblestone streets and sampled the regional fare. We drank, shopped local: EVOO, wine, jewelry, honey and of course beans. We learned about ancient traditions and song and we laughed alongside locals as they recounted stories from yesteryears.

I’m looking forward to getting back to this area of the island. The views, the valleys, the wonderful people, and the surrounding mountains make this tiny town worth the drive. This was one of the best little discoveries I’ve found on the island.

Have you been?

Snapshots: Peek A Moo

My early morning runs consist of pastures, steep rolling hills and plenty of hefty beasts. I was at the four-kilometre mark when I saw this beautiful beast peeking at me from behind the granite wall. I stopped running to enjoy the moment. I leaned on the granite slab with my iPhone 5S and snapped away, she didn’t move, just watched me with those curious eyes.

It was 6:30 AM, early for her and early for me. I pass her every other day on my run, sometimes it’s her relatives that stop and stare, but today it was her and she was lovely. I enjoyed each moment. Once I got home, showered and had that second espresso of the day, I uploaded this photo to social media. Well, it didn’t go viral, that was not my intention, I just liked the photo and wanted to share it with my world.

Within minutes, friends from all over the globe were congratulating me on such a wonderful photo, I just thought ‘right place, right time.’ Many friends suggested that I submit it to a photo competition or to National Geographic. I did the last, here’s the link. It’s not a competition, just a place for photographers to drop their pics for the world to see.

If you liked this photo then share it with your friends. Thank you.

Inside Sardinia: A Distorted Nature’s Poem

Inside Sardinia: A distorted Nature’s poem …

jennifer-avventura-my-sardinian-life-2016

I grow flat along the red rocky earth
with only the wind to guide me.
My nutrients I steal from the sea
with only the wind to guide me.
I yearn to reach new heights
with only the wind to guide me.
I’ve learned to reach the mountain peak
with the wind holding my hand, beside me.
