Squillace 6
We visited Squillace with the intent of a walkabout and to grab lunch before we headed to our next stop Santa Severina, but it was not to be, pretty much everyone was closed though we did enjoy our tour of the town. When I remember Squillace it will be for its many key stoned portals scattered throughout town built by craftsmen that stayed on after the Duomo construction, they knew their trade well as many of these portals predate the 1783 earthquake. Squillace may not be on every tourist radar but that is what makes it charming to me and after spending time wandering around I am sure a visit of more than a few hours would be time well spent.
I took this on Sept 19th 2023 with my D850 and Nikon 28-300mm f3.5-5.6 at 65mm, 1/250s, f11 ISO 1000 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia ,Topaz, and DXO
