Early light
These two images were shot with color negative film in the bay area of Freeport Long Island. Early morning and cloudy light add to the mood. The negatives were scanned, always difficult when color negatives are used but although there is some color shift I like the results. If I must copy nature exactly, I just use my eyes and do not need a camera.

The bridge
It was back in 1987 when the Brooklyn Bridge was undergoing one of it's endless preventive maintenances. The netting used to protect the public made for interesting images. These were shot with a Rolleiflex and Tri-X P. I like the composition especially the one where the net sort of holds up the buildings.

The last cannoli
This scene was recorded at an event of Arba Sicula an organization based in St. John's University that fosters Sicilia culture and language. After the lecture there was a light repast that culminated with that most famous of Italian pastries the Sicilian cannolo. It is worth noting that the two most famous Italian dessert delicacies, the cannolo and the cassata are both of Sicilian origin. We see the waiter with a tray of cannoli and the aftermath. A great satisfaction and competition to grab that last cannolo. Priceless.
