Il castello
The castle in Castellamare del Golfo not only gives the town it's name but it is the focal point of its existence. Not long ago it reached into the sea and the lambent waves would caress it but also caused damages. Now that an entirely new protection has been devised, it is hoped that the castle and the sea will be able to meet again.

Santa really comes from Sicily
The Anglo Saxon style of Christmas has totally taken over. It naturally carries with it the great commercialization with the concomitant diminution of the religious function of the holiday. This donkey and a small Sicilian cart were roaming the streets of Castellammare del Golfo an Christmas Eve few years ago. They were slowing down traffic and made many motorist angry. Christmas spirit,,are you kidding? Everyone was rushing to prepare the cenone or great supper for the night before Christmas.

The Williamsburgh Bridge
It may not be the best known of New York's East River bridges but the Williamsburgh Bridge is one of the busiest. It also has subway tracks and pedestrian walkways. But what interests me is it's architecture. It is actually quite beautiful. These images were made ad dusk when the light becomes magical.

It's always the light
Unless one understands light and how it plays into an image one cannot take interesting photos. After all. photography is graphics with light. These are photos taken in early spring. Shot in early morning - the same applies in late day - when the sunlight is at low angles and creates magical effects.

There was something right about the skin tones of the D 1-X. Only the Fuji S2-Pro did better. The Nikkor 35-135 F 3.5-4.5 was used.
