shop cat
I met this kitty in Bagheria; he lives in the local cartmaker’s shop, where he keeps watch on the visitors.
(Later, after the official observation period has concluded, he will allow you to pet him.)

lemon gelato
This woman and I crossed paths that day, each of us taking in the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Nuova di Monreale. After that, she sat in the sun and had a lemon gelato, while a couple of little girls played.
Truly, this simple scene means as much to me as the magnificence of the cathedral.

(Just a reminder that even with my strong turn toward street photography, I still do photograph other subjects. Like this, for example, the Fontana di Diana, which is in the center of the Piazza Archimede.)

work is never done
It’s a life I cannot imagine – taking fishing boats out all night, coming home at dawn to sell the catch, then spending the day making repairs to nets, equipment, or the boats, then repeating it day after day.
My life has been very sheltered.

one eye
We spent our morning in Collesano following our hosts through a variety of local shops as they gathered ingredients (cheese, cured meats, pastries) for the lunch they’d later prepare for us. At the cheese store, this little girl and I made brief (and sort of incomplete) eye contact with each other.
