First Cargo

Even if this picture has been ideally presented after the previous one.

It comes out of the same day I was taking some shot at Mergellina with Pino, a friend of mine.
As you can see it is a 1250 ISO shot... I found it still impressive how much it is clean.
Moreover it is not have been taken with the SIGMA 70-300 APO but with a AF-D 28-105 mm f/3.5 -4.5. That is a MACRO lens! Funny how well it can focus on far objects... the only thing I had to gripe with that lens was is rotating focusing screen.

Too bad it was stolen too...

Old and new Naples

And this is the last shot of this series... but it the first I shot too...
I was having some fun shooting some cargoes and I anded up framing a piece of Castel Dell'Ovo...

The difference was striking... Naples have always been a trading city... but in these times the differences are still more striking... we've got heritage attractions and commercial wharfs too...

Castello dell'Ovo and the Sailor's burg

In a cloudy afternoon, after spending the morning at University and after visiting a friend of mine at an Amazing Comic Store here in Naples (StarShop in Fuorigrotta - Via Diocleziano, 19).

I wanted to get some picture of Castel dell'Ovo (Egg's Castle) and something more (You'll see I assure you!) and I searched for a good sight of the Castle walking the shoreline.

All the photo taken that day share a common Issue... they were taken at 1250 ISO as I was playing with the camera the night before
