Oh Cat Island, Cat Island! My mystical island paradise. The land of my forefathers and foremothers who collectively brought me back home to the beauty, tranquility, and the peace that Alessandro has captured in his photographs. His images remind me what it feels like to be human; to be in nature; to be in the arms of God and know my true purpose on earth: to help others. Alessandro’s seascapes titillate my eye. The landscapes uplift my spirits. He illuminates the kindness, generosity, and love of a people who believe that God loves us all and protects us on this jewel island in a crown known as The Bahamas. When asked 'How you doing?' Cat Islanders always answer "Thank God for Life!" I add, thank God for Alessandro who sees Cat Island for the gift it is! Pamela Poitier
