Dear Simonaman, I loved your whole presentation! It was a sheer delight to find that such an event happens in this world, with it's wonderous dresses and headresses and carts. I joined webshot so I could Thank you. There was a beautiful black woman in the crowd (ex. "white mustache") that I wish was in the procession in some magnificent outfit.

Simona, I am very honored to have you as my first 'fan' and after viewing this album I will be your 'eternal fan'. Although scenery is nice, I love the spirit that your photojournalism of this important event captures. The essence of a place is its people more than buildings or scenery. You are really a treasure for the Island of Sardegna. Veramente sei Bravissima! Terry

Simona, it has taken me several hours to carefully go through this beautiful album. You have shared "La sagra di Sant'Efisio a Cagliari" with the world; I ~PRAY~ they appreciate not only your excellent photography, but the devotion of your people to celebrate with pomp and honor, their heritage! The costumes are elaborately decorated with embroidery and laces ... and all of the gold jewelry and buttons. Being blonde and blue-eyed, I would stand out in the crowd as a 'stranger' but your dark-haired beauties make striking models for their native dress. Your 'spot' on the sidelines gave you a vantage point to be envied!!! Thank you for taking me 'with you' to the parade and sharing your people and their customs. ... With much admiration, Judy aka L@dybug / Florida / USA

Esplendido reportaje Simona. Este album es un despliegue completo de trajes y personajes de una fiesta tan popular como hermosa. Me gustan mucho las carretas tiradas por bueyes. En un pueblo de Espana de la provincia de Teruel, llamado Villarquemado, tambien tienen en su fiesta tradicional carretas adornadas con el mismo estilo. Pero como ya no hay bueyes, son los tractores los encargados de arrastrar las carretas. Te felicito porque has sabido fotografiar muy bien los rostros, los adornos, el vestuario y el ambiente. Ha sido un placer ver este album. Un cordial saludo. Jesus.

Mi queridisima Simonetta, viendo tu magnifico album he tenido la sensacion de estar a tu lado disfrutando de la fiesta. Es estupendo poder conocer, a traves de reportajes como el tuyo, las costumbres y tradiciones de los pueblos. Me han encantado los trajes, los niņos, los ancianos los caballos, las flores... todo!!! Pero una de las cosas que mas me ha llamado la atencion es la belleza de las mujeres de tu querida Cerdeņa. Ahora entiendo por que tambien tu eres tan guapa! Te felicito sinceramente por haber captado tan fielmente los detalles de la preciosa "Sagra di Sant'Efisio". Gracias por habernosla mostrado. Besos, besos y mas besos. Joana

Splendido reportage ed immagini interessanti.... stupendi i costumi... ma le foto con i cavalli sono le mie preferite! la 86 in particolare esprime bellezza e vitalitā ed aiuta ad assaporare la partecipazione ed il coinvolgimento della Sagra. Il tuo album insieme a quello di Ruggero sul "raduno" ; degli spazzacamini rappresenta quanto di meglio si possa produrre quale testimonianza fotografica di splendidi eventi collettivi (almeno su WS non ho trovato finora altri reportage di questo livello....). Complimenti vivissimi! Un caro saluto. Elio

pansaram 2005.05.14 at 09:17:55 PDT
Patrimonio dell'umanitā e documento di grande rilievo. Leggendo i commenti degli amici che mi precedono devo dire che sono pienamente daccordo con tutti. L'album deve essere visto come documento e come testimonianza di un eveno storico culturale. Su ogni foto si potrebbero fare mille considerazioni, ma in un contesto cosė quello che conta č l'insieme e, quindi, il reportage nella sua interezza. Congratulazioni. Maurizio.Italy

bvillanyi 2005.05.12 at 08:52:56 PDT
Cara Simona, non temere, questo stupendo reportage non va giudicato con criteri fotografici, ma come documento etnografico e antropologico sulla cultura della tua isola. Che fierezza nei volti degli uomini e dei ragazzi, che orgoglio e senso di dedizione mostrano le donne. Se stata bravissima ad immortalare i momenti piu’ significativi. Questa sagra mi ricorda vagamente l’esperienza che vissi 25 anni fa in Spagna dove in una tappa di trasferimento dalla costa verso Madrid mi imbattei, in tarda serata ad Albacete in una feria in costume dove tutta la gente partecipava entusiasta con cortei che duravano tutta la notte tra esibizioni, esecuzioni bandistiche e rappresentazioni storiche. Bene, l’atmosfera che traggo dalle tue foto e’ piu’ o meno simile. Complimenti quindi per la grande perizia nel trasmettere la magia di questa sagra che non conoscevo ma la cui storia sto approfondendo grazie ai molti siti sull’argomento predisposti dai tuoi entusiasti concittadini. Un ringraziamento infine per la tua attitudine a coinvolgerci nel condividere l’amore per la tua terra e per le sue tradizioni. Un grande abbraccio da Claudio.

Immaginavo che avessi esagerato con l'autocritica e quest'album mi conferma che hai davvero ESAGERATO! You have created a wonderful album in a really difficult situation! The distance between your position and subjects was big, they are in movement, light was hard, etc etc...... anyway you have created a WONDERFUL collection that I LOVE! I can say that PROBABLY you will not have the deserved success that is correct for this photos, but the reason is that in Webshots people look only at landscapes and flowers, and NOT at the TRUE quality of shots. I have selected as favorites many photos like: 4, 8, 10, 17, 25, 27, 31, 46, 47, 50, 54, 59, 62, 65 and 84. Like Renato I hope in a feature, but....... TI ABBRACCIO e ti scrivo alcune note tecniche privatamente. BRAVISSIMA E TROPPO MODESTA!!! CIAOOO Ruggero

Cara amica Simona! Ma a che spettacolo ci hai fatto assistere! Hai fatto delle bellissime fotografie e avevi dei dubbi? Sei stata stupenda nel fotografare volti e costumi, fiori e colori. Hai colto nei minimi particolari le espressioni dei volti dei personaggi. Vedrai che successo avra' questo tuo album perche' questo album e' da feature. Mia moglie e' entusiasta dei costumi e ringrazia tanto la fotografa che le ha permesso di gustarseli. Mi piacciono tutte me le preferite sono: 4-5-8-9-31-32-47-49-53-54 -63-72. Approfondiremo questo argomento in separata sede. Bravissima. A presto. con grande amicizia Renato con mia moglie Grazia.
