2021-10-12 BAR IN NAPLES
I can barely walk past an Italian coffee bar without stopping and ordering an espresso. The hustle and bustle inside is a mixture of Italian coffee culture and drinking chocolate while standing directly at the bar. Before that, you hold a receipt at the cash desk.

2021-08-17 VILLA RUFFOLO IN RAVELLO

2021-08-15 POMPEJI NIGHT SCENE
We took a seat in a park on the main square after an excellent pizza as you can only get it in Italy. While my wife Karin and my son looked at the cell phones, I looked around to find motifs for my Leica M8. And Italy is always rich to fill your portfolio with photos.

The panorama of the Amalfi Coast is unique. Imposing are the houses and bridges built into the rocks. I stood on a small rubber dinghy with an outboard motor and was able to capture the coast from the perspective of a seafarer.
