Leri Cavour
Leri Cavour was the country residence of Camillo Benso, Count of Cavour, the farmhouse where I invent modern rice-growing.
Cavour Canal, where everything starts
Canale Cavour stars in Chivasso. The intake building is a beautiful building built in industrial liberty style.
The Cavour Canal in Vettignè and the Elvo siphon-tombs
Vettignè is a village lost in the rice fields between Santhià and Formigliana, it is a magical place at many times of the year.
Canale Cavour, the Formigliana unloader
One of the places in Canale Cavour that I love the most, because we had a difficult relationship at the beginning: the Formigliana unloader is easy to reach and is surrounded by a beautiful poplar grove.

Weeks of waiting, using The Photographer's Ephemeris to calculate the exact moment in which the sunrise would have been perfectly aligned with the Cavour Canal and where.
The Cavour Canal dry
The “asciutta“ is that particular moment in which the canals are emptied in order to carry out the necessary maintenance.
150 years of Cavour Canal
