Looking over Palermo from the roof of the Cathedral.
Cefalu, Sicily, after dusk, 3 different versions, I don't particularly like any of them, maybe why I waited 4 months to upload this series.

Designed by Roger II in 1130, this extraordinary chapel is Palermo's top tourist attraction.
The fountain was originally created for a garden in Florence in 1551. In 1573 it was sold to the city of Palermo. For the transport the fountain was disassembled in 644 pieces. Because of the nudity of the statues, the square became also known as "Piazza della Vergogna" (Square of Shame).
Palermo, Sizilien, Italien
one of the oldest churches in Palermo.
La splendida vista dal Monte pellegrino da cui sono visibili in basso a sinistra la spiaggia di Vergine Maria con accanto la Tonnara di Bordonaro e sullo sfondo il promontorio di Capo Zafferano e poco più in alto le splendide Madonie raramente imbiancate.
In Siclia si visitano principalmente le mete in riva al mare piene di storia e bellezze naturali ma quest'anno ho preferito recarmi tra le colline morbide e minimaliste dell'interno cercando scorci e geometri da condividere.

More than a street crossing is the intersection of Via Vittorio Emanuele and Via Maqueda. Its a meeting point, landmark and most of all a point of reference for all strangers coming to Palermo for the first time.
