Love this set of images and the Venice images previous to this as well. It's interesting what you say about the light being more harsh in Sicily. It does seem a little less forgiving which is surprising considering it's on the Mediterranean. It feels like the blazing sun in the high desert of New Mexico by comparison.
When I moved back to California, the sun felt softer, even at midday. Of course, that could be because I was happy to be back home. 😁
Thank you! That last sentence is, for me, part of the essence of "place" - the feeling of contentment when you are where you feel you can connect with being there.
Good morning Jeff, I got an early start yesterday and didn't see the photos you submitted till last nite, Wow What a set all really great , a couple comments on the first two ( liked them all ) The first photo, thought that the two colours of blue in the shadow were great contrasted nicely with the old stucco , and most excellent detail in the portal . On the second photo a very interesting contrast with the high tech camera juxtopositioned above the shadow, ,,ancient and high tech living together ,,,a great comment on the present place we find our lives. Thank you for the excellent set !!!
Mr. Curto, you write and photograph elegantly. I will forever learn and grow as I look and listen to you. Thank you, thank you for this beautiful journey.
