I share photographs because of what they mean to me.
I treasure most of my photographs because I think they are beautiful, a few others because, though far from perfect, capture a moment of simple joy, like drinking a caffè macchiato while doing my writing practice.
I usually write with a fountain pen, but when I travel by plane I don't carry that beloved writing instrument with me, because the change of pressure pushes some ink out of the cartridge and the result is rather messy.
The photos above were taken while I was away from home, so the writing you see was done with a regular ballpoint pen. (I also have an injured right thumb, so my handwriting is really bad these days.)
This is my contribution to edition #99 of Black and White Wednesday – A Culinary Photography Event created by Susan of The Well-Seasoned Cook, now organized by Cinzia of Cindystar, and hosted this week by Priya of The Humpty Dumpty Kitchen.
The photos were shot in color and then converted to sepia (Lightroom preset Sepia Tone).
This post contains the gallery of images submitted to the event.
Loved the capture Simona. It’s so beautiful. These sort of shots are my fav 🙂 Thank you so much for sending the click to BWW!
Lovely click, Simona! I need my caffè macchiato, now.
My favorite way to order un caffe!
Glad you like the photos, Priya.
Thank you, Sanhita. Things get definitely easier after one.
Ciao Debra. When I am in Italy, I order a cappuccino, but in the US most often I order a caffè macchiato. We certainly like double consonants in Italian: “pp” “cc” “ff” 🙂
Lovely photos and words! I am very personal regarding my photos, too. They have to mean something to me or I don’t have the same feeling about them.
Thanks, Lynne. We are dedicated photographers and that dedication builds a deep relationship with our work. Have a great weekend!
I love all your photos. I hope your thumb injury heals quickly.
Thank you, Paz, for the kind words and the good wishes. My thumb is almost healed 🙂
