NOTE: After seeing a number of your comments asking about these calenders; I plan to do a post either tomorrow or Monday on how to create these calendar layouts. 
Lovely photos. I get really inspired, and would like to go to Italy NOOOOOW!!! Great country, great landscapes, great wine, great food.
Hi Scott,
Wonderful stuff as always.
I’m particularly impressed by your food photography, especially the lighting of it.
I know you wouldn’t be able to do it ‘properly’ so I’m interested to know how much preparation was involved in taking the shots and how much post processing.
Keep up the good work

Very nice photos. Could help some more
Hi Scott,
WOW, very nice pics.
I can’t wait to see your post on how to create those calendars layout. Thanks in advance.
Cheers,

Lovin’ all these great shots from Italy. Getting excited for our family trip there next year.
It’s always great to be able to go through your great images. They are inspiring. You have mentioned in the past using an Epson P-5000 as part of your travel back-up strategy. Have you ever been able to back up the P-5000 to a small external drive, like a LaCie Little Disk, as a secondary backup (using the copy to USB Device function on the P-5000) ? I have been unable to make this work and Epson Tech Support has not been helpful. Thanks again…..
Very nice shots. You used iPhoto didn’t you? That’s what it looks like to me.
Nice job. Well done on the photo’s and the editing… Gav
Scott:
This is not about you wonderful shots of Itay which made me wish I was back there and so I am instead going for a lesson in making pasta from the newest member of our family who is Italian! Not to mention the trip to the Italian resturant.
But with the 4th coming up and the great fireworks I would love to fianally have some good fireworks photos. My wonderful husband generously gave me the Nikon D300 with the Gitzo tripod complete with the Really Right Stuff mount. So if you have any helpful hints I would to make the best use of my dream gift. Thank you so much!
Wow, I love these photos!! It’s been a real treat to see these, it just brightens me up!
I feel like I’m committing a cardinal sin for asking this question (especially when you talked about this in your books), but did you use a tripod or were they handheld?
Scott, you have reached the “cult leader” status. I was at my son’s graduation and I struck up a conversation about photography with one of the parent there because both of us had our D300 in our hands. And what do you know, both of us are fans of your work and own several of your books!
The 4th I’m going to see the Boss at Ullevi stadium in Gothenburg Sweden. That’s gonna be a heck of a concert I hope!
