'Mon Billet Doux à Naples"


'Mon Billet Doux à Naples' - that's the title of my exhibition at PhotoMenton this year - 'My love letter to Naples.'

I fell in love with Naples and its wonderfully joyous people when I was lucky enough to participate in Carla Coulson's brilliant photography workshop in September.

This photo was taken in the cathedral on the day of the Feast of San Gennaro - the day the whole of Naples prays that the saint's blood will liquify.  This signifies good luck for Naples for the coming year. A very important and emotional day for Neopolitans. 

If you are in the Menton area, do come along to PhotoMenton during the next 9 days at the Palais de l'Europe.  You'll find me at Stand number 80. And you'll find 109 talented photographers exhibiting so many different and imaginative styles of photography. A feast for the eye!

Hope to see you there!
