CdD's Naples '08 presents...
The Isle of Capri
A lovely Caprese view of Anacapri
Just as in 2006, my all too brief excursion to Capri
from Naples was a photographic and travel success.
It was a little sad not to have my traveling buddy José
along and to be traveling alone, but I toughed it out. ;)
There are villas and other structures perched upon the edges of cliffs.

What can I say. It was a great day.

Closer up of two of the houses in the previous photo.
The water is so gosh darn blue there.
It's also at the same time very clear.

I have to say that all the
displays whether in Napoli or Capri were very interesting and flawless.
Elegant simplicity seems to be the operative principle guided by
a deeply rooted and firm conviction on the part of all Italians that life is
art.

I have many more pictures of the glorious isle of Capri. I have to look through all of them, then process, and post them. Please be patient.
