| "Fotografia?" I asked this fellow while bicycle touring in Sardinia.
The old man grinned, and nodded it was okay to take his picture.
As I got out my camera, a milk truck barrelled up and screeched
to a halt beside us. Two men in white lab coats jumped out. One
fellow held a microscope-like instrument and busied himself inspecting
a drop of milk from one of the farmer's milk cans while the other
fellow unravelled a hose from the back of the truck, dipped it
into the milk cans and sucked their contents into the truck's
tank. The dairy employees scribbled in a log book and sped off.
The shepherd began to load his empty cans onto his donkey. Securing
a milk can into its holder, he looked at me and offered a shy
smile. |
