Sortino, Sicily
A very long day on the road outside a small town in Sicily.

More Palladium Prints
I had a productive weekend in the darkroom. Now that I’ve had a chance to do a whole bunch of prints, I am going to go back and do some fine tuning. I’m also excited to try some larger prints. I’ve been printing at 5×5 so far, which looks great, but I am very curious to see what some of these images would look like at 8×8 and larger.
Palladium Prints
I can’t spend enough time in the darkroom right now. I am printing at a feverish pace.

Lo Zingaro, Sicily
Lo Zingaro is a natural reserve near Scopello on the eastern coast of Sicily. It is rugged and beautiful, but most people are there for the beach rather than for the hiking. The beach is difficult to get to, nestled in a cove and completely sheltered from the outside world.
Sicilian city scenes
Sicilian cities decay in the most graceful and beautiful way imaginable. I had such an incredible time roaming the back streets of Siracusa and Palermo, especially late in the day when the shadows became deep and the textures of the buildings stood out in high relief. This dog was mellow and very friendly. I have no idea why he was wearing the muzzle, maybe he just thought it made him look tough.
