Cremona / E PL-2



Two more from my recent trip to Italy. These were shot in Cremona, a jewel of a city in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. Here the finest violins were made.

More from old Quebec / Nikon Ft-N



Old Quebec City is really a wonderful pl;ace. I have been away from there too long.

More from the archives / Nikon Ft-N



Sgot in old Quebec a long time ago with kodachrome II and the Nikkor 35mm f 2.8 lens.

Un record, anche per una Leica


In Vienna, at a auction, a vintage 1923 Leica went for one million Euro. Amazing
In vienna, ad asta, una Leica si e' venduta per un milione di Euro. Incredibile.

An old friend / Canon Ft


This is an old friend of ours with whom we used to go camping. We were having breakfast and I captured her while she was looking pensively out the window. It seems just like yesterday. But the Kodachrome color remains faithful.

Archval shots from Central Park / Nikon Ft-N



Outside the boat house at Central Park on a sunny winter day. The film was Ektachrome 100 that I developed in Unicolor equivalent chemistry. The lens was the phenomenal Nikkor 105mm F2.5.

San Gemignano / Nikon D-200



Two quaint street scenes from San Gemignano in Tuscany.

One mo time / Nikon D-700


The Planting Fields Arboretum is splendid and on a winter's day it is phenomenal. I have spring fever all year long so this place is ideal. The Nikkor 60mm F 2.8 micro was used.

Flowers and more flowers / E PL-2




Another trip to the Rose Garden of the Brooklyn Botanic today. The roses were at peak beauty. Please forgive the plethora of flower photos but I just love them.

Macedonia / E PL-2


The term Macedonia in Italian cuisine does not refer to that Greek region with the same name but to a fruit salad. Here we made it with fresh berries in season and we naturally added water melon, fresh orange pieces and mint. Whipped cream can also be added to the salad once it is served. Delicious and refreshing on a hot day.

 Early morning at the Anchorage, Alaska airport  many years ago. Canon FT, Canon 28mm F 3.5 FL lens and Ektachrome.
