I made a submission to an agency of some of my photographs of truffle hunters in Tuscany yesterday and thought it might be worth sharing them here.
I lived in Tuscany for about 3-4 years and became quite good friends with a number of the hunters in the area who took me out with them one winter on a truffle hunt. I can’t say I’m much of a fan of the taste of truffle, still it was an interesting process to watch the dogs finding them and we did have some success as these photos attest.
I’ve also enclosed some excerpts from an article I had published on truffle hunting. In Italian, truffle is tartufo (singular), tartufi (plural).
