fashion + diana
You know how much I enjoy photographing shop windows with reflections that distort…everything. So, here’s a variation on that ongoing theme, and this one has a bonus of including the Fontana di Diana, which I didn’t even notice when I made the photo, as I was consumed with getting those mannequins lined up the way I wanted.

Just another Sicilian kitty, this one sitting outside amongst mossy rocks and taking a little bit of a bath during a light rain.

In the daytime, the church doors were kept closed, so it was a treat when I walked by one night and they were open. And it was a bigger treat that two people were standing there, taking in the majesty of the place.

This gentleman greeted us every time we came back to our rooms in Catania. Some of our group* kept entertained by making up captions for what we saw, because basically we are unruly children who shouldn’t be left unsupervised.

I am led to believe that “normal” travelers get on the road on the most convenient route to where they are going and that they make steady forward progress through the trip and that they arrive at their destination within a reasonable time.
Photographers do not do any of those things. We’re wandery, we’re distracted by light, enchanted by vistas, delighted by skies. And we take approximately forever to get someplace.
So many thanks go to Allison Scola at Experience Sicily for understanding those things and being ready to change her careful plans if there was a sunset that needed our attention. And so many thanks to our driver Massimo Mudó, who could park the van in some really tight spots just so we could get the shots.
