The men gathered on park benches seemed to have a nice social structure sitting for hours just talking. Photographically the scenes looked like movie sets.

Hi Roger; great B&W composition. It certainly looks as though the men in Sicily enjoy thier park bench chats. What a nice tradtiion.

Hello Roger!
Nice scene! Good composition! Beautiful contrast and details!
TFS, Best regards, Zorica

I love these social shots of yours Roger.
They do look so much like National Geographic type shots.
I guess you have to be careful who you photograph in Sicily ... omerta and all that.
Great work
Well done
Steve

Probably some great gossip going on there :) A very natural daily life portrait. I like the b&w. TFS and have a great day!

Hello Roger,
I like Your italian portraits seria.
Just a suggestion. This b/w shot looks too perfect to my mind.
I would add some grains or monocromatic noise to make it looks more like shot on film.
Thanks for sharing,
Siarhei
