Rocco Galatioto, nice photos and good food

Naples is a most fascinating city, a human laboratory where one can smell the real espresso and the food  while you hear the people sing and carry on all at the same time. It always gives you a surprise or two. I have been there many times but these images of 30 years ago appeal to me the most. They were taken with a Leica M4 with the 35mm Summicron F2 and of course Kodak Tri-X Pan.

As I go through my archive, I find personal stuff that I shot, looked at and put away because I was too busy with my business photos. These images were shot back in 1990 and are of the so called quartiere spagnolo or the Spanish quarters in Naples. Needless to say it became a rather run down area but being Naples it kept it's charm. These were all shot with a Leica M-4, a 35mm F 2 Summicron and Tri-X Pan film. It took guts walking around with a Leica in that neighborhood.
