Bancarella is the name of a table of sorts or space used by street vendors. It is the site where they sell their wares at feasts or fairs. In the States you see them in Italian feasts in larger cities. This bancarella featured a maker of almond candy. Made with Sicilian almonds that are renowned for their intense flavor, they are placed in a large frying pan with sugar. Before the sugar hardens, they are placed on a platform mixed with a large flat knife, then flattened and finally cut up into rectangular pieces for vending. This man was totally involved in the finishing process. The Canon G-11 was used. Shot at ISO 800. Not bad. Much better than the G-9 in this respect.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will help in these trying times
