I think I shot this picture somewhere in Italy. It must have been after dinner in the late evening: while my wife and I were enjoying our espresso and Amaretto di Saronno (inferred), Cora was eating her icecream (proven by another picture) and clearly still being absorbed by it. Scan of a medium format negative film. Substandard quality –thank God for the digital darkroom.

I love goats, particularly the right one... (Sorry, Cora... It had to be.)

Our last day in Ferrara was pretty cool and rather wet. Which didn’t prevent us from having a last Campari at our favorite street cafe near the Este castle. The empty glass is mine –Cora got pear juice (though I’m not sure she preferred it).

Robbie is sleeping safely in Cora’s arms. A picture taken especially for Robbie’s adorable little feet.

Today, Cora lost her braces. A smile looks good on her again.

Cora’s braces were removed today, and I was allowed to take some pictures of her.

This is Cora, about two years ago. Long before I went digital (and she went braces). She does the smiling for me... ;-) (shot with a Nikon F50, available light, EXIF not available)

Cora isn’t posing, she’s intently watching Lasse Hallström’s “Chocolat” (Johnny Depp is irresistible). (And I watch her until she’s finished –she’s using my computer...)

I shot this picture only seconds after the darker one. Originally, it lacked a certain atmospheric quality, so I’ve cropped it and have tried to improve its general appearance a little by processing it. It’s still unsharp (well, let’s say “soft”), but it has more of Cora, and I like it better now.

Most of the time we’re traveling something goes wrong: the dog gets into a fight and needs hospitalization, a very old mother stumbles and breaks a leg, our daughter Cora loses her contact lenses... This time we were lucky: the dog didn’t fight, a very old mother did stumble but after she’d been taken to a hospital nothing serious was found (she still can’t walk, though), and Cora did break a contact lense (only one!) but hadn’t forgotten to take her glasses with her. Everything could be worse.
