Apulia Street and Beach Photography
In July 2017 my daughter, granddaughter and I went on a longish trip to the Adriatic coast of Italy. Seascape images from that trip are shown in a separate album. Most of our time was spent in the province of Apulia, or Puglia, which has the longest coastline of any in Italy. It runs from the spectacular Gargano peninsula down to the boot heel of Italy, and has many opportunities for eating and sightseeing.
This album is a selection of street and beach photographs from the trip. In addition to my Olympus E-M1 Mk II, I also took the Panasonic Lumix GM5 specifically for street photos. Both of these cameras use the same interchangeable lenses, but the GM5 is one of the smallest cameras of it’s type ever made, so it was perfect as a permanent carry for when the opportunity arose. Being Italy, many such opportunities occurred, from a sinister looking group of post-prandial priests in Trani, to a fabulous wedding in Lecce, shot from above.
Photographs in this album include: Excellent lunch at the Rampa la Conca, Trani, Bari Street, Lecce wedding, Ostuna beach shower, and more.
