I didn’t realize the KKK had an Italian Marching Band.

Am I the only one who saw the tread title and thought for a second that you-know-who was back?

Nice pics! One of my favorite hang out spots over on the coast has a bunch of photos like this-- B&W photos of everyday life in mid-century Italy. Very cool.

Move your mouse around the right side of the photo, until an arrow appeares.  
Click it.

How intuitive. Why didn’t I think of that?

Can you be a little more specific about “around the right side”? I’m not getting anything. I’m using Windows 10, Firefox, if that helps.

I love the photo of the woman carrying buckets toward the “trulli”. Perfect composition.

Very nice pictures! I love seeing sets of photos like this that are a slice of life from an earlier time period.

You have to click on the picture first to open the slideshow. Then, you’ll be able to use the arrows.
