"Calatafimi is the place where all four of my grandparents were born. Several of my first cousins
and their children still live there, or nearby. I have photographed Calatafimi and its surroundings
numerous times since my first visit in 1989. In May, 2004, I was able to photograph its fabled
3-day town festival, which once occured every third year but now occurs only about once per decade."
