It's been a long day

These zeppole vendors at the feast o Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Brooklyn show total fatigue bordering on disinterest. The camera can capture such human emotions once the photographer notices them because of it's quickness. A great tool indeed if you keep your eyes open, Occhio vivo.

Have a great weekend

Another archival classic

Once again Kodachrome II shines in it's ability to retain it's colors. This shot dating from 1973 was made in Quebec Ville with a Nikon FTn and a 25mm f 2.8 Nikkor lens, Tempus fugit.

It could have been shot this summer

However this image dates from 1972. The Jardin de Luxembourg is still the same, as are the chairs. Given Kodachrome's ability to preserve it's hues, the image has a timeless feel.

Some images to celebrate summer

Venice

They may call it sunny Italy but it rains thee also. Umbrellas always make for interesting photos. 

La galleria di Milano

This superb galleria is situated in the heart of Milano. On one side you have Piazza del Duomo and on the other you have la Scala opera house. Who could ask for more.

Have a great week

Have a lovely Sunday
