This archival image of this temple during a full moon was shot in Agrigento's Valle dei templi [valley of the temples] was shot on Ektachrome with a Canon FT and a 50nn f 1.4 Canon FL lens. It was scanned later on to preserve it. This was back in 1972 when this area was accessible day and night to everyone. It is now an archeological park open only during the day and teeming with visitors and it is a designated UNESCO site. No Photoshop was used and no manipulation. I'm somewhat proud of this image and I have posted it before. BTW, Sicily has 20 designated UNESCO sites, one half of all of Italy.
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.
