Venice, the entrance to the Rialto Bridge. Digital image.

 Eating healthy doesn't have to be bland or boring. This dish consisting mainly of lentils and rice is very nutritious and delicious.

 Butcher shop in Little Italy, The Bronx. Arthur Avenue and 186 Street in the mid eighties. I has just bought a used Nikon S-2 rangefinder with a 35mm F 3.5 Nikkor lens. A very rare camera. I eventually was able to get a Nikon SP rangefinder. These were not as versatile as my Leicas but rarity made all the difference and the lenses were first class. These were the cameras that made the Nikon brand so famous and the work horse of us pros for a very long time. BTW, I cannot believe the prices on the meat.

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

 A peasant dish and a star in the firmament of cucina povera or poor cuisine this simple dish of linguine with kahlrobi with a light sauce from tomato paste, garlic and peperoncino is not only delicious but very healthy. A prime example of Italian cuisine that is really the best exponent of the Mediterranean diet, considered the most salubrious of all. 

 Vintage shot, winter of 1974, of Coney Island's Surf Avenue under the famous Cyclone roller coaster. The place has now been rehabilitated but it has lost it's old charm. Leica M-2 with Ektachrome.

 What a lunch. Penne rigate with asparagus and pancetta. Nothing more to add.
