Sicilian cart: loading plan sent on February 06, 2018 (0:14) by Sergio Bartolomeo. 4 comments, 478 views. [retina]

at 24mm, 1/60 f/7.1, ISO 1000, hand held.

Il carretto è composto dal fonnu di càscia, cioè il pianale di carico prolungato anteriormente e posteriormente da due tavulàzzi, sul quale sono montati parallelamente due masciddàri (dal siciliano mascidda, "mascella") ovvero le sponde fisse del carretto, e un puttèddu (portello posteriore) removibile per agevolare le operazioni di carico e scarico. Ogni masciddaru è suddiviso equamente in due scacchi (i riquadri in cui vengono dipinte le scene), nel putteddu invece vi è uno scacco centrale fra due scacchi più piccoli.I scacchi sono divisi da un segmento verticale che congiunge i pannelli al fonnu di cascia: 6 in legno chiamati barrùni equamente divisi fra masciddari e putteddu, due in metallo denominati centuni presenti solo sui masciddari. Questa sezione "contenitiva" sormonta il gruppo portante del carretto chiamato traìno, il quale comprende le aste e la cascia di fusu, a sua volta costituita da una sezione di legno intagliato sormontata da un arabesco di metallo. Nei carretti alla patrunàli meno pregiati, la preziosa cascia di fusu viene sostituita dalle balestre. Fra le aste sotto i tavulazzi vengono montate due parti in legno chiamate chiavi, una anteriore ed una posteriore. La prima altro non è che una semplice barra ricurva, la seconda invece consiste in un bassorilievo intagliato rappresentante una scena, solitamente cavalleresca, che può assumere diversi gradi di pregevolezza.

This also a very nice subject, I understand that the cart was there and you could not move, but here in my opinion you should have in PP with some graduated filter attenuate the side lights to put the subject in the correct exposure.
A greeting
Silvano

Thanks Silvano for your advice, the cart was just against the light.
Yes you are right. I could have improved the image in post.
Thank you
Sergio

Thanks Mario for your comment.
I was also impressed by this collection of wagons.
It happens to see them occasionally for some folkloristic ceremony, but never seen so many together and being able to admire them calmly I appreciated the work of the artisans who make them.
I have admired more or less rich in decorations, they were still means of work, some did not even have the box: those for the transport of barrels, for example.
I was pleased to pay tribute to those who made them and to the traditions of my land, happy to pass them on to those who like you.
Thanks 1000
Hello
