    • Hi Beth! What a delightful album! You have captured the ambience of the places with utmost sensitivity! I particularly liked the Papasidereo pictures. They have so much charm. Look forward to your further postings. I was away in Sri Lanka on vacation and just came back this weekend. Hnece, the delay in adding my two cents worth of comments. Take care! Suresh

    • E così hai visitato persino la grotta del Bue Romito :-) ! Non so chi ti ha fatto da guida in Calabria, ma sicuramente è una persona esperta di questa terra bella, ma povera, orgogliosa, ma dimenticata. Un bell'album che ha saputo cogliere tanti aspetti nascosti di quest'angolo di Italia. Devo trovare il tempo di vedere gli altri tuoi album (questo non è un bel momento per me), ma sicuramente sarà un grande piacere vedere ciascuno di loro. Un abbraccio a te ed a Les!! CIAOOOO Ruggero

    • Hi Beth finaly got around to having a look at this wonderful album, Calbria, is a wonderful untouched part of Italy still sleeping in a past age, thank goodness there are still such places to go to. We still have such places but they are being spoiled by Rich City folk buying all the cottages for second homes, a two week holdiday a year. and live like the simple country folk. You seem to be able to sniff out all these wonderful places to visit. I swear you know where to go in our country better than the locals, I do so hope that you and Les are well and ready for the winter. best of regards Hugs Ken xx

    • Ciao Beth! I'm glad you and Less have had a nice holiday! Thank you for this beautiful album, showing an unfamiliar part of Italy. With your eyes for landscapes, details, and textures, we could see some beautiful and interesting views, shiny and not so shiny scenes. Despite the cloudy weather you have some great shots. Ti abbraccio cara! Orly

    • Mia carissima Beth, forse le giornate non sono state piene di sole, ma le immagini hanno un fascino ed un mistero tutto particolare con questa luce filtrata dalle nuvole. Un magnifico reportage da una terra incantevole. Bravissima come sempre, mia cara. Le tue foto mi hanno fatto venir voglia di prendere un aereo e volare in Calabria! :0) Un forte abbraccio. Simona

    • Dear Beth, This is a fascinating album, from the scenery, the towns cascading down the hillsides, to the formal designs of the buildings and the beach umbrellas. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, Judith.

    • Ciao Beth, vedo che ami l'Italia, un altro bellissimo album su dei paesini di Calabria. Una splendida terra che ho avuto modo anch'io di visitare e le tue fotografie mi ricordano quel bellissimo viaggio alla scoperta di un territorio antico e di un bellissimo mare. Grazie di condividere con noi tanta bellezza. Io sono su W/S e rimango qui. Un abbraccio, Renato.

    • Dear Beth, I stop writing in the pictures as it does not work for many pictures; I got the message "Sorry the picture has moved, try another feature...."; You made there a charming album that invites to go and visit this region; Thanks to have visited and commented my last India album; So few people look at new postings on WS now! I wondered why and had a look to Fotki; I found there Ruggero, Gabriela, Trudy, Suresh and many others! It is perhaps why; So I have opened there a free account and posted an album on a rare destination, Sumatra; The link is http://public.fotki.com/jcpf/ With my best thoughts, Jacques
