Giolitti Gelati, early morning

By assignment Sam Miller

Some days ago Sam Miller put this comment to my galleries:

"I can't get enough of Rome. Went there a couple years ago, and I'm dying to go back and photograph it more. 2 weeks was not enough.
[...] and also, is there a chance you might have a shot of the GREAT Giolitti Gelati shop?
I'm craving some, and have been. I think I went there almost every day I was in Rome.
But I would like to have a snapshot of it, which I didn't get while I was there".

- Ok Sam, let's go to Giolitti Gelati and take some snapshots...

nobody outside, nobody inside and in the distance a gluey, viscous, strangely coloured stuff apparently on sale

Everything was still and silent. In a corner a bunch of dead dried flowers. (could be a photographic heaven for certain romantic PBase ladies...)

Great idea Pete! Next time I'll write "I accept Pay-Pal"... 1€ each gallery (bus return ticket) (LOL)

Why it was empty Sam? Because... because I am lucky!!! ;-))

Thanks a bunch Adal!!! Bringing back great memories! I'll have the Crema and the Ciocolata, maybe with some Lampone! (did i spell those right?)

But one question, why was the place empty? Not even any employees? The time period i was in Rome was the first two weeks of November, and it was NEVER not busy even for it being a little cold out. the place was packed all the time. I even remember it was always the same woman at the register taking money.

maybe this gallery should just be called "by assignment" as we PBasers will SUREly come up with other requested areas and arenas to fotograf =]
