The weekly round-up is on hiatus nolonger. I am returned from Sicily where I was stopped by the Carabinieri, stalked by a green Fiat Panda, and ate an awful lot of awfully good food. Naturally, I took photos. (Although not of the Carabinieri or the green Fiat Pandas.)
Business is beginning to return to normal here at Small Aperture and thus the winner of the March photo contest has been announced and April's competition kicked off on Firday. You should enter. I'm also still searching for the collective noun for a group of photographers.
Here're the rest of the photography-related snippets we collated over the past week for you.
