Streghe (Witches) is now at: <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Jesse+Hellman/Spoleto+2006/ Streghe001_72_.jpg.html> And a few more pictures from Spoleto: photographer Virgilio Massani: <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Jesse+Hellman/Spoleto+2006/ VirgilioMassani_72__001.jpg.html> There are two pictures of twins at: <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Jesse+Hellman/Spoleto+2006/ Twins001_72_.jpg.html> and the picture following it. There is another picture of a set of twins on p. 1 of the Spoleto folder. I had by chance met the first set on the Piazza Campello and fifteen minutes later another set at the Piazza Collicola. There was no "Twins Convention" going on. It was my Lucky Day, but that fact dawned on me after the stock market had closed (reminiscent of an old Ernie Bilko episode...). These were all scanned from the negatives. I learned from Mark Rabiner to turn off the Unsharp Mask from the scanner so that I don't do it twice when I resize the picture in PhotoShop. The pictures of the twins are a result of that knowledge; the others predate it. Virgilio is a good friend. He has documented Spoleto life with a Leica and Hasselblad for fifty years. Jesse
