Rocco Galatioto, nice photos and good food

Of all Italian salads, this simple masterpiece is the most ubiquitous. This is from an agriturismo in Piedmont, but the identical salad was eaten at breakfast in Sicily. I had this daily in the summer when I used to visit my grandfather in the country. Just tomatoes, onions and olives. The dressing is oil and vinegar. In Sicily we added a sprinkle of oregano and a salted sardine was also part of this healthful breakfast. The bread was home made in a wood fired oven. The lens was the Canon 24-105 F 4 L. Buon appetito.

Shot at a carnival for a client, Catholic Charities, this consumer was having fun. The lens was the Canon 24-105 F4 L.

A view of 14 Street from the High line with the 9=18 mm F 4-5.6 Zuiko lens.

It's very hot and my thoughts are long for spring. This shot of tulips in the front of my home was made with the Micro Nikkor 60mm F 2.8.

Yes indeed. When it's hot I think of cold weather although I really despise the winter. Once again, this scene is fron Bryn Mar, Pennsylvania and the lens was the superlative Summicron 35mm F2. This was Kodachrome -X at the super speed of 64! Funny, really.

This early evening in winter shot was taken at the Bryn Mar campus. The lens was the 35mm F2 Summicron.

This clothes line was in Lancaster Pennsylvania way back in 1970. The 50mm Summicron F2 was used. It's amazing how the Kodachrome II color has held up.

One more from this fascinating area of the city. Of course when I say the city I mean the only city and that is New York. Of course I'm a snob. It's hard not to be one once you live in this fabulous city.
