Of all the great sites of Paris it's garden are superb. This shot is of the Jardin de Luxenbourg in late afternoon light this past April. I just love this place.
The seventies
The seventies, not as exciting as the sixties. did nave many memorable events and in the Big Apple there cwere many demonstration and rallies. Here are two Etachromes shot in front of the Metropolitan Museum in Manhattan in the early seventies. Most likely these people became hedge fund managers.
San Gennaro's feast, many years ago
The San Gennaro's feast on Mulberry Street, Manhattan, in what was once Little Italy has just concluded. It is not what it used to be but what is. These Ektachrome slide scans date from 1971 and show bits and pieces of the feast. One can call them abstractions except for the statue of the "saint manque." San Gennaro's sainthood is rather specious but when the Holy See wanted to demote him, the Neapolitans whose patron he is made such a fuss that he was quietly re instated.You didn't want to mess with the man minding the money on the statue.
