Haha Paolo, che bella nota... per caso sei uno studioso dei numeri ??!!
Oggi è il giorno degli anniversari, fabio ha fatto cinquanta e tu 200!
Complimenti, ci vuole costanza e un bel bagaglio di immagini di valore per arrivarci!
Bellissima questa panoramica di 'San Siro'... (o no?) sembra un paradiso Thailandese...
ottimamente inquadrata e completata da queste bellissime nuvole a 'stracci'.
E io che pensavo che le spiagge lì fossero solo sabbia fine, bellissime anche le rocce.
Una splendida immagine per un anniversario importante! ;-D)))
ciao, Giorgio

hahahah nice research on the 200 theme. I had no idea 200 had so many meanings! I learn so much on TE. Ill be coming up on 200 in 2 weeks:) Dont worry, I wont steal your note.

For your 200th you continue in the old Paolo tradition of amazing vistas bathed in amazing colors, superbly bautiful locations we would all love to get away to on a cold day, and as always you make us jealous with your photos for having been there already.

Happy 200 and see you at 300!

Bonjourno Paolo

A superb tropical seascape, of a beautiful Thai island I visted last year. I like the turquoise & aquamarine colors of the sea. Congratulations on your 200th. Bellisimo!

andante (7092) 2006-02-20 15:08

Paolo, your note is hilarious! One for the book.

The photo per se is great, the scanning is not that great, I'd do pass through PP, using the SmartSharpen filter or the UnSharpen.

Thanks for sharing,
Enrique
