Some shots from the en masse art project at Galloway apartments in Scarborough shot this past summer. This purple film is way too grainy for being a low iso film, and really unpredictable with consistent light. Thank god I bought a whole box of 6!

Kampong Glam (Chinese: 甘榜格南; Pinyin: Gānbǎnggénán; Malay: Kampong Gelam; Tamil: கம்ப்பொங் கிலாம்) is a neighbourhood in Singapore. It is located north of the Singapore River, in the urban planning areas of Kallang and Rochor.
The area's name is derived from two Malay words, Kampong, meaning "village" or "settlement", and Glam (or Gelam) referring to a variety of eucalyptus (Melaleuca leucadendra) or paperbark tree, which used to grow abundantly in the area. Its naturally peeling bark was used by boat builders in the village to caulk boats, while its leaves provided cajuput oil (from Malay: minyak kayu puteh, or white wood oil) which could be used to treat muscular aches and pains, as well as respiratory problems.

This is my submission for the Get Pushed!! challenge group, where entrants are paired up and challenge each other to shoot something different than they ordinarily would shoot. For Round 2 I was paired with the multi-talented Chemival and was challenged to take a Posed Portrait.
Mike obviously knows me well enough from my stream, because this really was shoving pushing me. I thought about this and came up with three possible plans (A, B and C). Plan A failed because my stoopid friends cannot pose for the camera without pulling a face or being eejits. Plan B then had to come into action - tourists!
These guys are from Shanghai and are in Cambridge at a Conference in St John's college. I met them atop one of the many bridges in Cambridge taking shots of each other with the colleges and punts in the background. Perfect! A quick offer to take a shot of them together with their camera was enough to start a conversation with them (foolishly I did not ask their names, doh!) and then after a brief talk about what they were doing and what they should see in and around Cambridge, I asked if I could take a shot of the two of them. They were only too happy to oblige. So thanks guys, much appreciated.
You don't want to know what Plan C was ;-)

This shot of the geometric roof structure over the atrium is another upload from last months London Flickr Group photowalk. Our afternoon started with an exclusive tour of the Fumihiko Maki designed Aga Khan Centre at Kings Cross.
This month's photowalk has now been confirmed for June 28th, more details here : www.flickr.com/groups/londonflickrgroup/discuss/721577219...
These free photowalks are usually about every 4-6 weeks so keep an eye on the group for details of upcoming events.
From the Aga Khan's website, "The Aga Khan Centre is a place of education, knowledge, cultural exchange and insight into Muslim civilisations. The building is the UK home for three organisations founded by His Late Highness Aga Khan IV, the hereditary spiritual leader of the Shi‘a Ismaili Muslims.
This building is designed to represent the values of openness, dialogue and respect for different viewpoints (pluralism). The architecture incorporates a collection of gardens, courtyards and terraces that provides an insight into the diversity and influence of Islamic landscape design around the world and through history.
The building was designed by Fumihiko Maki, one of Japan’s most distinguished contemporary architects. The Centre is primarily designed for an academic community, with places for students, scholars and staff to share ideas and work together alongside flexible teaching spaces and quiet research areas."

You ever have a location that you want to keep a secret, well here is that location for me. I mean, it's not hard to find out where this is located if you have luck on your side, as it seemed with us, but still there is that inner conflict of "where do I say this beautiful waterfall is?".
I will not be doing that though, this is Mystic Falls in Ames, Colorado. Although difficult to see, once you locate the falls from the dirt road leading into Ames, it is pretty easy to bushwack into. Yes, bushwack. There is no clearly defined trail to this waterfall, in fact bring your Chacos because you will be walking up the creek during parts of the 1/8 mile walk from the "parking lot" next to someone's house. You will have to trespass, as you will be walking through someone's property. I don't think anyone was around when we walked through, but if that is an issue, I would advise to not go looking for this waterfall. Mystic Falls is a spectacular sight though, as this canyon is really narrow, and I'm estimating the height of the falls to be around 100ft. Amazing sight! Good luck!

Sitges, Barcelona (Spain).
ENGLISH
Pere Jou i Francisco (Gracia, Barcelona, November 3 of 1891 - Sitges, April 19 of 1964) was an sculptor very tie to Sitges.
At 25 years old he knew Utrillo painter, who looked for a sculptor for the Palau Maricel that the American millionaire Charles Deering was constructing in Sitges. From 1916 to 1920, Jou carved fiftieth of capitals and other smaller works, for doors and windows, with images extracted of famous fables (of La Fontaine, Iriarte and Samaniego), or contemporary celebrities and events, or with allegorical character; many of the faces of these figures are of his workmates in the construction of the Maricel or of citizens of the city.

CASTELLANO
Pere Jou i Francisco (Gracia, Barcelona, 3 de noviembre de 1891 – Sitges, 19 de abril de 1964) fue un escultor muy vinculado a Sitges.
A los 25 años conoció al pintor Utrillo, que buscaba un escultor para el Palau Maricel que el millonario americano Charles Deering estaba construyendo en Sitges. Desde 1916 hasta 1920, Jou esculpió una cincuentena de capiteles y otras obras menores, para puertas y ventanas, con imágenes extraídas de fábulas famosas (de La Fontaine, Iriarte y Samaniego), o personajes y acontecimientos contemporáneos, o de carácter alegórico; muchos de los rostros de estas figuras son de compañeros de trabajo en la construcción del Maricel o de ciudadanos de la ciudad.

Bajar a esos lagos....
Ayer me quedaba en el descenso del Eggishorn, y desde allí arriba ya se divisaba la vaguada con los dos lagos (el mayor Vordersee, en dirección al glaciar Fiesch; y el Marjelensee, camino del gran glaciar Alestch).
No te darías cuenta, pero entre ambos lagos existe un pequeño refugio de madera, el Glestcherstube - una magnífica idea suiza la de poder tomarte una buena jarra de cerveza en plena ruta de montaña, todo un lujo -.
Estos lagos no necesitan descripción alguna. Ese agua pura y cristalina, reflejando como un perfecto espejo unas nubes de un cielo con interesantes formaciones nubosas, y un entorno agreste, rocoso, con poca vegetación en tonos ocres.... y la pareja de senderistas al fondo reflejados en el agua. Uhmm, creo que me gusta esta postal. De toda formas, te aseguro que mi fotografía no hace justicia a la belleza de ese paraje natural, pero esa imagen la tengo bien guardada en mi memoria.... tengo que volver a Suiza!!!.

El Zoo de Santillana del Mar es uno de "los grandes" para todo turista que visita Cantabria, junto con Cabárceno, la península de la Magdalena (uhmm.... al parecer lo más interesante de nuestra región son sus animales cautivos......). Vamos, que quien más quien menos, cuando visitas Cantabria, especialmente con niños, este pequeño zoo familiar es obligatorio.
Los de casa a veces nos vemos desplazados por los turistas, y en plena temporada solemos huir de estos lugares. Pero ahora, en este inicio de Primavera, después de la Semana Santa y antes de que lleguen los veraneantes, es el mejor momento para pasar un dia en familia.
La última vez que estuve fue en el séptimo cumpleaños de mi hija mayor, y tenía pendiente repetir con la pequeña, que ha disfrutado muchísimo (y los demás con ella).
Es un zoo pequeño, pero cuenta con una variedad inmensa de fauna y flora, y el reducido tamaño permite un contacto muy cercano con los animales.
Gracias a ello, con un pequeño teleobjetivo se pueden conseguir retratos muy atractivos.
Si no conocéis el Zoo, os recomiendo incluirlo en la ruta. No veréis grandes mamíferos (para eso está Cabárceno), pero su colección de aves, las mariposas y los primates enanos son un auténtico lujo con una variedad y calidad que no alcanzan otros centros mucho más grandes e importantes.

Toronto is the provincial capital of Ontario. With a recorded population of 2,731,571 in 2016, it is the most populous city in Canada and the fourth most populous city in North America. The city is the anchor of the Golden Horseshoe, an urban agglomeration of 9,245,438 people (as of 2016) surrounding the western end of Lake Ontario, while the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) proper had a 2016 population of 6,417,516. Toronto is an international centre of business, finance, arts, and culture, and is recognized as one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in the world.
People have travelled through and inhabited the Toronto area, located on a broad sloping plateau interspersed with rivers, deep ravines, and urban forest, for more than 10,000 years. After the broadly disputed Toronto Purchase, when the Mississauga surrendered the area to the British Crown, the British established the town of York in 1793 and later designated it as the capital of Upper Canada. During the War of 1812, the town was the site of the Battle of York and suffered heavy damage by American troops. York was renamed and incorporated in 1834 as the city of Toronto. It was designated as the capital of the province of Ontario in 1867 during Canadian Confederation. The city proper has since expanded past its original borders through both annexation and amalgamation to its current area of 630.2 km2 (243.3 sq mi).
The diverse population of Toronto reflects its current and historical role as an important destination for immigrants to Canada. More than 50 percent of residents belong to a visible minority population group, and over 200 distinct ethnic origins are represented among its inhabitants. While the majority of Torontonians speak English as their primary language, over 160 languages are spoken in the city.
Toronto is a prominent centre for music, theatre, motion picture production, and television production, and is home to the headquarters of Canada's major national broadcast networks and media outlets. Its varied cultural institutions, which include numerous museums and galleries, festivals and public events, entertainment districts, national historic sites, and sports activities, attract over 43 million tourists each year. Toronto is known for its many skyscrapers and high-rise buildings, in particular the tallest free-standing structure in the Western Hemisphere, the CN Tower.
The city is home to the Toronto Stock Exchange, the headquarters of Canada's five largest banks, and the headquarters of many large Canadian and multinational corporations. Its economy is highly diversified with strengths in technology, design, financial services, life sciences, education, arts, fashion, aerospace, environmental innovation, food services, and tourism.

Nathan Phillips Square is an urban plaza in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It forms the forecourt to Toronto City Hall, or New City Hall, at the intersection of Queen Street West and Bay Street, and is named for Nathan Phillips, mayor of Toronto from 1955 to 1962. The square was designed by the City Hall's architect Viljo Revell and landscape architect Richard Strong. It opened in 1965. The square is the site of concerts, art displays, a weekly farmers' market, the winter festival of lights, and other public events, including demonstrations. During the winter months, the reflecting pool is converted into an ice rink for ice skating. The square attracts an estimated 1.5 million visitors yearly. With an area of 4.85 hectares (12.0 acres), it is Canada's largest city square.
Nathan Phillips Square is used regularly for art exhibits, concerts, rallies and other ceremonies. Annual events include a New Year's Eve Party and the Cavalcade of Lights Festival lighting of the official Christmas tree. The annual Nuit Blanche art festival sets up art exhibits in the Square, and has also utilized the parking garage located underneath the square.

The Old City Hall is a Romanesque-style civic building and court house in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was the home of the Toronto City Council from 1899 to 1966 and remains one of the city's most prominent structures.
The building is located at the corner of Queen and Bay Streets, across Bay Street from Nathan Phillips Square and the present City Hall in Downtown Toronto. The heritage landmark has a distinctive clock tower which heads the length of Bay Street from Front Street to Queen Street as a terminating vista. Old City Hall was designated a National Historic Site in 1984.

Venice Carnival 2015 - Blue Hour
www.bridgetdavey.com/blog/2015/2/VeniceCarnival-2015
Photos taken on the Rialto Bridge with view down the Canal Grande in Venice | Italy
The Carnival of Venice or Carnevale di Venezia is an annual festival, held in Venice, Italy. The Carnival ends with the Christian celebration of Lent, forty days before Easter on Shrove Tuesday (Pancake Tuesday or Mardi Gras), the day before Ash Wednesday. The festival is famed for its elaborate masks.
It is said that the Carnival of Venice was started from a victory of the "Serenissima Repubblica" against the Patriarch of Aquileia, Ulrico di Treven in the year 1162. In the honor of this victory, the people started to dance and make reunions in San Marco Square. It became official in the Renaissance. Under the rule of the King of Austria, the festival was outlawed entirely in 1797 and the use of masks became strictly forbidden. The Carnival returned in 1979 as the Italian government decided to bring back the history and culture of Venice.
Masks have always been an important feature of the Venetian carnival. Traditionally people were allowed to wear them between the festival of Santo Stefano (St. Stephen's Day, December 26) and the start of the carnival season at midnight of Shrove Tuesday.

El Puente Monumental de La Arganzuela, también conocido como Puente de Perrault, es sin lugar a dudas, el lugar más fotografiado, visitado y recorrido de Madrid-Río.
Pasarela sobre el Río Manzanares, su forma de tirabuzón y sus dos brazos que suman 278 metros le hacen verdaderamente espectacular y futurista. Su cobertura, de malla metálica que brilla con el sol durante el día, y su iluminación nocturna permiten que este puente se vea prácticamente desde todo el Parque. Su pavimento interior es de madera y por él pueden circular bicicletas y peatones.
Desde un punto de vista práctico, el puente de Perrault une los distritos de Arganzuela – con entrada por el paseo de Yeserías- y Carabanchel - a la calle Antonio López.
Dominique Perrault, a quien este puente debe su sobrenombre, es el arquitecto francés de 57 años que ha diseñado y dirigido la construcción de este Puente que ha costado a la ciudad de Madrid 13,6 millones de euros.
En definitiva, toda una obra de nuestro tiempo, que con el paso de los años se convertirá sin duda alguna en uno de los iconos de Madrid.
Este puente es obra del arquitecto francés Dominique Perrault, al cual los madrileños debemos también la Caja Mágica. El puente unirá el Paseo de Yeserías y la Avenida del Manzanares, y será la puerta principal de entrada al parque de Arganzuela. La inauguración será el próximo 15 de abril, y como podéis observar en las fotos (20 de marzo de 2011) está ya muy avanzado. Tiene 250 metros de longitud y 5 metros de anchura, con carril bici, paseo para peatones y unas gradas para sentarse. El suelo es de madera y en el centro tiene grupos de farolas con varios focos.

Please see the camera-wiki article on the Ricoh XR-P Multi-program. As the name (and graph) indicate, this model offers different autoexposure programs, which can prioritize depth of field (small apertures), freezing action (fast shutter speeds), or a compromise.
The new Ricoh "P" series lenses are a modification of the original Pentax K mount to enable the body to drive the aperture position. Unfortunately, Ricoh uses its own custom linkage to do this and Pentax--A lenses are not compatible.

U2 - No Line On The Horizon Live in Dublin

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

My shutter feeling.
Today's photo.
It is a photo taken from Eurostar.
This video is an explanation.
I went to Milan in 2005.
At that time # I went from Milan to Venice.
We took Eurostar into the transportation.
This photo was not taken from a very fast Eurostar.
When I changed the track # I took a picture at the moment I slowed down.
Is there a Japanese beside you?
Please have my video translated.

あらすじ
大学を目指している北見ケイは、SNS上で、6歳年上のイベントコンパニオン、上村香織に出会う。
上京してきた香織の夢は、有名なアーティストの友達になるためだ。
そのためにはラジオ局のプロデューサー、大沢亮の存在が必要だった。
大沢は、ラジオの生放送中、香織へ語りかける。
「僕には妻子がある。しかし、僕は君に会いたいと思っている」
ケイの同級生で、彼を想っている三條里香は、香織の動向を探っていた。。。。。
本編
人が海へ向かう理由には、二つある。
ひとつは、波打ち際ではしゃぐ子供のように、今の瞬間の海の輝きを楽しむこと。
もうひとつは、その輝きを静かに見据えて、過ぎ去った日々を懐かしむ老人のように記憶の埃を払うこと。
二つは重なり合わないようではあるけれども、たったひとつの意味しか生まない。
再生だ。
明日っていう、曖昧な日を確実なものへと変えてゆくために、自分の存在に向き合う。
それが再生の意味だ。
十八歳だった僕には大切な人がいた。

Years ago, a friend told me a story from her childhood that I'd not heard before, and I think of it often. The story goes like this:
One morning, a little girl was looking across the valley from her house, admiring the beautiful golden windows on a house on the top of the hill.
"Mom," she said, "Do you see that house on the hill with golden windows? It must be so beautiful there, and the people who live there must be so wealthy! I'll bet they have no problems and their lives are filled with happiness every day. I wish OUR HOUSE had golden windows."
"Oh, darling," replied the mother, "no one's life is perfect. Even people who live in a house with golden windows."
"No, I think you are wrong! I want to go see for myself!" So the mother packed the daughter a lunch, and away the daughter went to cross the valley and see how wonderful life was for the people who lived in the house with golden windows.
The girl walked all day long. As she reached the bottom of the valley, she lost sight of the house but kept going. It was dusk by the time she reached the top of the other hill. But to her surprise, all she found was an ordinary house. She saw no golden ornaments, nothing that made the house look different or more special than any other house. The people looked ordinary, just like the people in her own family. She was puzzled.
Disappointed, she turned around to gaze at her own house across the valley she'd just crossed. And to her surprise, her house was ablaze with light. The windows shone with gold as the setting sun lit them up. In disbelief, she looked again at the ordinary house in front of her, then back to her house gleaming across the way.
"MY house has golden windows!" she said in amazement. She stood for a moment, struck by how beautiful her house looked from this side of the valley. She took off running back down the hill, eager to return to her family.
you can hear this song here
What's the I-pod shuffle about? Find out here
Dundas is the son of the 3rd Marquess of Zetland, and was educated at Harrow and the Central School of Speech and Drama. He is also considered a one-hit wonder with his 1976 single "Jeans On", which reached #3 in the UK Singles Chart, #17 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and #1 in the German Singles Charts, where the song remained 19 weeks in the Top Ten. The song originally appeared as a television advertising jingle for Brutus Jeans (the words used in the jingle - "I pull my Brutus jeans on" - were replaced with "I pull my old blue jeans on" for the single release). The single was later sampled by Fatboy Slim for his track "Sho Nuff" which was also used in an advert in 2006 for SEAT Ibiza.
Happy song from my teens- nothing better than putting old blue jeans on and getting out with your mates!

-------------------------------------------------------------------
this is a photographic narration that speaks of the eternal struggle that takes place between good and evil, which speaks of a dark period of history, speaks of the violence suffered by women but also by those who belonged to the poorest social classes, historical facts that have been handed down to us in the form of a story and associated-transmuted in the martyrdom of Saint Lucia, this is what happens in the town of Savoca (Sicily). This is a short and long report, I did in Savoca on August 2018 about the living representation of the martyrdom of Saint Lucia (patron saint of the city of Savoca); the cult of the young Saint of Syracuse seems to date back to the fifteenth century, under the influence of Spanish traditions. The commemoration of the history of St. Lucia occurs in two consecutive days, Saturday and Sunday: here I try to tell some times of the day on Sunday, a day during which the festival is held at the height of her beauty. And 'This is a historical event which speaks of Demons and Angels: Saint Lucy refused to marry a rich and powerful suitor (Lucy declared She was married in Christ), which reported the Christian faith of Lucia to prefect Pascasio that ordered his Praetorian Guard to drag Lucia with a rope to a place of prostitution; legend has it that the Holy became heavy, they then tried to drag it with the help of oxen, but it was impossible to move it from where he stood; failing in this, it was then given the order to cavarle eyes, but the young martyr (native of Syracuse) her eyes reappeared.
In the village of Savoca a young girl, affectionately called the "Lucy" is carried on the shoulder of a porter along the streets of the country (sitting on a pillow tied on the shoulder of a man, but in fact men are two); the young Saint remains impassive in the face of demonic temptations: the Devil, called in Sicilian dialect "u Diavulazzu, shake, shakes, turns his pitchfork in an attempt to "distract" the Saint.
The first day of this representation, on Saturday, in an old church in Savoca, the two girls who impersonate the Lucia, of the current year and the previous year, meet with the delivery of palm; the traditional event which we witness on Saturday, has all the appearance of an important rehearsal for the next day, on Sunday when the traditional festival will take place in all its beauty.
Sunday: on top of the procession there are the "Jews" (the emissaries of the prefect Pascasio) along with some Angels, is located immediately after the wagon drawn by two cows from which branches off a rope that will arrive to Saint Lucia (a girl of six years); between her and the cows there are Roman soldiers, who make their way through the crowd squirming like crazy; to hold the rope there are also male figures; the job of Devil (his mask is made of wood, whose invoice is dated, it seems, of the 400') is to distract the little Saint with the help of a long stick equipped of curved points, called "u 'croccu": Lucia hardly is deceived by the promises of the evil one, she will not abandon the state of her property concentration, aided in this by staring, almost in a trance, a small palm branch in silver , she brings devoutly in her hands.It's very important to mention the Baron Baldassarre (nicknamed Baron Altadonna), who applied without any hesitation the practice of Jus de seigneur: using this law the Baron obliged the young brides to spend the wedding night in his alcove. It 'very possible that in the representation of Saint Lucia of Savoca the character of the Devil tempting young Santa with his pitchfork, in reality is nothing but himself, Baron Altadonna, so allegorically described in this traditional Sicilian feast: the figure of the Devil if one takes into account what historians relate, does not belong more to the legend, but sadly to actual event happened. Post scriptum: the photographs, realized both on Saturday and Sunday, were organized and posted without taking into account the temporal chronology of what happened during the two days of the event; two photos of the mummy of Baron Altadonna have been included, which is located in the crypt of the Capuchin Fathers of Savoca; the portraits of two "Lucie" from previous editions, grandfather and great-grandfather of the "DIAVOLI" dynasty were included; the "silver palm" was delivered by Lucia of 2016 (Valentina), to the current Lucia (Miriana), in 2017 the event was not performed.

questa è una narrazione fotografica che parla dell'eterna lotta che avviene tra il bene ed il male, che parla di un periodo buio della storia, che parla delle violenze subite dalle donne ma anche da coloro che appartenevano alle classi sociali più povere, fatti storici che sono stati tramandati fino a noi in forma di racconto ed associati-trasmutati nel martirio di Santa Lucia, questo è quanto accade nel paese di Savoca (Sicilia). Questo è un report corto e lungo, che ho realizzato in quel di Savoca lo scorso mese di Agosto 2018, su quella che è la rappresentazione vivente del martirio di Santa Lucia (Santa patrona della città di Savoca); il culto della giovane Santa di Siracusa sembra risalire al XV secolo, sotto l'influenza delle tradizioni spagnole. La rievocazione vivente della storia di S.Lucia avviene in due giornate consecutive, il sabato e la domenica: qui tento di raccontare alcuni momenti della giornata della domenica, giorno durante il quale la festa si svolge nel pieno della sua bellezza. E' questa una rievocazione storica che parla di Demoni ed Angeli: la storia rievoca di quando la Santa, si rifiutò di andare in sposa ad un suo ricco e potente pretendente (essendosi dichiarata Cristiana e sposa in Cristo), il quale per vendetta riferì della fede Cristiana di Lucia al prefetto Pascasio; costui diede ordine ai suoi pretoriani di trascinare Lucia con una corda fino ad un lupanare, un luogo di prostituzione; la leggenda narra che la Santa divenne pesantissima, si tentò allora di trascinarla con l'ausilio dei buoi, ma fu impossibile smuoverla da dove si trovava; non riuscendo in ciò, fu allora dato l'ordine di cavarle gli occhi, ma alla giovane martire (nativa di Siracusa) gli occhi le rispuntarono. Nel paese di Savoca una giovane ragazza, chiamata con affetto "la Lucia" viene portata in spalla lungo le vie del paese (seduta su di un cuscino legato sulla spalla di un uomo; in realtà gli uomini portatori sono due, dandosi il cambio l'un l'altro); la giovane Santa rimane impassibile di fronte alle tentazioni demoniache: il Diavolo, chiamato in dialetto siciliano "u Diavulazzu, agita, scuote, fa ruotare il suo forcone nel tentativo di "distrarre" la Santa ma, vani saranno i suoi tentativi. Il primo giorno di questa rappresentazione, il sabato, in una vecchia chiesa di Savoca, le due bambine che impersonano la Lucia, dell'anno in corso e dell'anno precedente, si incontrano con la consegna della palma da una bimba all'altra; l'evento tradizionale al quale si assiste il sabato, ha tutto l'aspetto di una importante prova generale per il giorno dopo, quando la domenica la festa tradizionale avverrà in tutta la sua bellezza.La domenica: in cima alla processione ci sono i "Giudei" (gli emissari del prefetto Pascasio) insieme ad alcuni Angeli, subito dopo si trova il carro tirato da due giumente dalle quali si diparte una corda che giungerà fino a cingere il fianco della bimba che impersona Santa Lucia (una bambina di sei anni); tra lei e le giumente ci sono i soldati Romani, che si fanno largo tra la folla dimenandosi a più non posso; a tenere la corda ci sono anche delle figure maschili che evitano che gli strattonamenti dei soldati romani possano giungere fino alla Santa (ricordiamolo, che è legata a quella corda); davanti alla Santa piroetta il diavolo tentatore, u' Diavulazzu (la maschera è in legno, la cui fattura è datata, sembra, del 400'), il cui compito è quello di distrarre la piccola Santa con l'aiuto di un lungo bastone dotato di punte ricurve, chiamto dialettalmente "u' croccu": Lucia difficilmente si lascerà ingannare dalle promesse del Maligno, non abbandonerà quel suo stato di immobile concentrazione, aiutata in ciò dal fissare, quasi in stato di trance, un piccolo ramo di palma in argento, che lei strige devotamente tra le sue mani. E’ fondamentale menzionare tra i vari personaggi storici della tradizione, il barone Baldassarre, vissuto in Savoca in epoca medioevale, soprannominato barone Altadonna, che applicava senza remora alcuna la pratica della Jus primae noctis: avvalendosi di questa legge il barone obbligava le giovani spose a trascorrere la prima notte di nozze nella sua alcova. E’ fortemente ipotizzabile che nella rappresentazione di Santa Lucia di Savoca il personaggio del Diavolo che tenta la giovane Santa col suo forcone, in realtà non sia altro che egli stesso, il barone Altadonna, così allegoricamente descritto nella festa tradizionale siciliana: la figura del Diavolo, se si tiene conto di quanto narrano gli storici, non apparterrebbe più alla leggenda, ma a questo tristo personaggio realmente vissuto, che usava quotidianamente la moneta della prepotenza. Post scriptum: le fotografie, realizzate sia il sabato che la domenica, sono state organizzate e postate senza tenere conto della cronologia temporale di quanto avvenuto nei due giorni della manifestazione; sono state inserite due foto della mummia del barone Altadonna, che si trova nella cripta dei Padri Cappuccini di Savoca; sono stati inseriti i ritratti di due "Lucie" delle precedenti edizioni, del nonno e del bisnonno della dinastia dei "DIAVOLI"; la "palma d'argento" è stata consegnata dalla Lucia del 2016 (Valentina), alla attuale Lucia (Miriana); nel 2017 la manifestazione non è stata eseguita.
