Procida


Our last day at Carla Coulson's amazing Naples photography workshop.  This is the island of Procida where we had our last lunch together. A fantastic week of learning -  Carla is such a generous and caring teacher - and meeting so many incredibly talented fellow students.  Naples and Carla = heaven for me! Thank you, dearest Carla.

Drama in Naples


I never did discover what this was all about - but as no dead bodies fell from the window, presumably all was well! Just life as it goes on in Naples, the most amazing place.

A Toy or a Real Dog?


Menton market:  maybe someone should buy the little girl a real dog...

The one on the right is a Keeshond. It's an old German breed, originally called a Wolfspitz.  The Keeshond was once a companion and watchdog on the barges and boats that traveled the canals and rivers of Holland in the 17th and 18th centuries and so it later became known as a Dutch Barge Dog or Keeshond.

Marché Menton : peut-être que quelqu'un devrait acheter un vrai chien à la petite fille ...?

Celui de droite est un Keeshond. C'est une vieille race allemande et à l'origine on l'appelait un Wolfspitz. Le Keeshond était autrefois un compagnon et chien de garde sur les barges et les bateaux qui naviguaient sur les canaux et les rivières de la Hollande aux 17e et 18e siècles et plus tard il a été   reconnu comme un Chien Péniche néerlandais ou Keeshond.

Two men on a bench


One man looks at me and the other one pretends I'm not there! But neither minded. Martina Franca, Puglia in 2014.

Un homme me regarde et l'autre prétend que je ne suis pas là! Mais ni l'un ni l'autre n'est dérangé. Martina Franca, Pouilles en 2014.

Stone bench


In Place aux Herbes you have a choice of restaurants or you buy a take-away and eat it on one of the ancient stone benches, their tops worn to a shiny patina by years of use.
