I never got their names…
To that point, I hadn’t had a proper iced coffee in over a week. In other words, the tension was mounting. By the time we were in Sorrento, I thought I’d give it a try at the shop just off the … Continue reading

Artisan, Sorrento
This craftsman carefully carved into the local woods of the area… Sorrento, Italy. It was a sharp contrast to the other shopkeepers who stared into iPhones as customers strolled through their stores. Taken with Olympus OM-D E-M1 and Olympus 12-40 … Continue reading
Farewell to Cape Cod
I hope you enjoyed seeing these images of Cape Cod. These were just a few memories of a week I would not mind reliving. As a restless wanderer, a vagabond soul… my mind sometimes wanders to far continents and unfamiliar … Continue reading
