About three weeks ago I was contacted by Besanopoli the "communication agency that manages all San Pellegrino websites" requesting to use of this photo:
Per their email:
"Official website www.sanpellegrino.com is dedicated to the S.Pellegrino and and Acqua Panna waters - with its extensive sections spanning all the interesting nuances of Italian culture, from the thousands peculiarities of our food and wine tradition to works of architecture, art and design; from the selected tourist itineraries to the best restaurants, their gourmet cooking and the Italian Lifestyle on the whole."
I thought about this request, and the fact that there was no payment offered. In the end I thought it'd be a good thing. It's fun to see your own work published (with permission and credit). I've thought for a long time that the traditional business models of photography and "old media" are quite staid. It's not like they asked me to do a photo shoot for free, after all.
There are photos from several other Flickr members featured on that page, and credit is given to all of them at the end of the article.
Thanks Besanopoli and San Pelegrino.
And above all, thanks to my good friend Carlos, Architect and Chef who was actually cooking this delicious Risotto that night at his house.

The article will be available for a limited time on www.sanpellegrino.com, under the title "Risotto: simply delicious!"
