Something for your Saturday brunch

Have a great weekend

Summer ends but there's still lots of green

Capturing the morning glow

This is an example when an iPhone is simply not up to the task. Nevertheless, the images have a certain flair and are posted as an example only. But one must always shoot no matter what camera one carries. After all the camera doesn't take the pictures.

Qiet lanes

These quiet lanes  are in Scopello, Sicily. They create a feeling of peace and tranquility and considering thai it was a very hot day they seem miraculous.

Genova

I love this city for many reasons, some very personal. Here are a few views of this wonderful city.

The old harbor

Alley in the Lagaccio section

Piazza Deferrari, thankfully turned into a pedestrian area free of motor vehicles

Frutta e verdura

Fruit and vegetable stores are my favorite places to shop. I'm like a child in a toy shop. Naturally I buy more that I need but what can I do. These are some of the vegetables I would buy in Sicily. I really go there to eat. This yera I only took my iPhone and didn't miss any of my cameras. I believe that unless you are a pro with a specific assignment carrying a bulky camera is simply showing off.

Very cute children

These wonderful and very cute children are my great nephews and niece. Actually they are the grand children of a first cousin. But we consider them as great nephews and niece. An extended Italian family at it's best. I photographed them in them in their space and this works very well with children who may become shy and uncooperative when posed. Light was from a large window and I used my iPhone. At present, I cannot use my cameras because my right eye has been butchered by a so called retina specialist who in typical American medical practice, runs an assembly line. It makes me wish we had a single payer with price controls. These charlatans will bankrupt the country because of their greed. I stay away from polemics but this is very close to home, as they say.

Have a great week

Enjoy your last summer Sunday for the year, of course.
