DC Irfan Nawaz emphasized the importance of preventative measures, asserting that while dengue may not be inherently dangerous, strict precautions must be adhered to. He issued directives to enhance sanitation practices across various city areas, urging the elimination of garbage collection at locations such as workshops and tire shops.<\/p>\n

Islamabad looks \u2018more beautiful\u2019 through the eyes of an Italian photographer<\/p>\n

Marzia Reggiani, a unique, \u2018emotional\u2019 photographer who is said to \u2018transform a camera click into a work of art\u2019 captivated a large number of art lovers, diplomats, members of civil society, the Pakistani and the Italian nationals at an exhibition titled \u201cIslamabad through Italian Eyes\u201d at Serena Hotel here on Friday.<\/p>\n

The event featuring Marzia\u2019s photographs, some rare pictures of Islamabad\u2019s iconic Saidpur Village as well as a number of fashion shoots, was held with the support and patronage of the Italian Ambassador Andreas Ferrarese and Mrs Albana Ferrarese.<\/p>\n

While introducing the photographer and her work to the audience, Ambassador Andreas said Marzia was a gifted photographer and had an eye for the right click. Since she was currently in Pakistan (she has spent over a year and plans to live a few more in Islamabad) exploring Islamabad\u2019s history, culture, beauty, landscape and above all the traditional weddings, it was thought why not her work should be introduced to the people of Islamabad.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can see with your own eyes how touching and appealing her portraits are,\u201d the ambassador said. While expressing her gratitude to the Ambassador and his wife and also the Italian embassy\u2019s staff and the Pakistani and the Italian friends, Marzia said back in Italy, she had established at a young age a studio of her own titled \u2018Stop the Time.\u2019<\/p>\n

That studio remained functional until 2021. Then she decided to change her professional life to work nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n
