the sicilian barber in Rome
- hallo, my name is Valentina, may I take a picture of your beautiful shop? I like it very much
- Yes, Sure, come in Valentina, and take a photo of me also!
This is a barber's shop, near my house. Each time I walk in front of the window I look inside this beautiful small shop full of stuffs... the name of the barber is Calogero, he is from Catania, Sicily, he has 70 years old and very blak dyed hair. he do this job since he was very child and he moved to Rome in the fiftyes.
Then I said: thankyou very much, Calogero, when I get the prints I'll take them to you
and he said: yes that's ok, and I will offer you a good coffee.

nice place, good shot. I like how you can see his reflex on the small mirror hanged between the two on the right. adds a kinda surreal feel!
