These photos of the Sicilian countryside date from 1970. This is before these areas became full of villette, country villas, and the land became subdivided. A real shame because the agricultural wealth of the region was lost to the needs of developers and leisure users. I will also add that many villas are absolutely ugly and all have huge fences with monolithic electric gates that create a creepy feeling. Too bad. But nothing can really diminish the beauty of this unique island.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography and my passion for good Italian food.. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will provide some respite and peace. Thank you for visiting.
