I just can’t seem to get enough of this scene of Marina Corricella here on the island of Procida. The viewpoint is only a two minute walk up hill from our hotel. This image was made just after sunset and was stitched together in Photoshop from 4 frames.
We are off to Naples tomorrow to pick up a rental car and then down to the Amalfi Coast for more research.
Ciao,
Jim & Magrit

Gorgeous. I think you need a research assistant.
Hello Johan, as you would say, it is “Crazy Good” here on Procida. I am just waking up sitting in my bed listening to the sound of gulls and smelling the espresso.
Ah, James, that is funtastic. But it seems you now have two research assistant applicants, so you you think about expanding the itinerary just to cover all bases
Update . . . three applications now
WOW!!! What more can I say? Simply fabulous!
Gorgeous!
Clever and beautiful. Thanks for showing us.
Amazing. What a wonderful opportunity.
Beautiful!
Yes! I am there . . . . magic, simply magical. Keep up the good work and travel safe.
Hi Cacky,
So delighted that you are still following your path with such beautiful photography.
Your happiness bounces off the photos!!!
Hugs to you,
Paula Pearl
Fritz, you better stay home for a while. I would like to volunteer to be the research assistant. Age before beauty or they need someone who can just take the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ picture. I AM that person!
Yes, I will for su…..hey, wait, what’s that over there.. Is that a kitty?….
(quick, Jim, where do I sign?)
Cacky, Frits — too cute you two. And for everybody else, you just had to (or will have to) be there — ’cause it truly was “all good” and not just according to Stephanie.
I find it interesting how we influence each other. When I now try to take a photo of an old man, I think of meaningful b/w options because of Frits and I think of the openness with which Cacky approaches her subjects. When, as a somewhat reserved European, I greet somebody whose picture I’d like to take, I come from a place of apologies for the intrusion. Cacky, on the other hand, simply opens her arms and her gesture and smile says: “I love you.” Pretty irresistible for anybody — kids, dogs, frogs, cats and old men.
That’s Magrit, BTW, not Jim for the comment above.
Beautiful!!!!
Yes indeed . . . “It is all good!” And by the way, I submit my application also
Just so you know . . . I can carry camera equipment with the best of them and can retrieve the perfect Spritz each evening with a calm grace. Ha! Oh well . . . it sounded good . . .
Miss you guys!
Hmmmmmmmmm, me like.
Drop flaming dead gorgeous!
Fritz,
Lets not forget who got you started on the “old men” photos you are now becoming famous for. I will concede that the B&W was your idea. For that reason I strongly feel that we would be an excellent team for the job.
Oh Fritz, I think you should adjust your ISO a little and maybe your aperture while you are at it. Oh no, while futzing you missed the great light! Sorry.
