Three Seasons in a Day Photo

Photographer’s Note

Past sunday on the Lake of Como shore, in Bellagio.

We spent the morning and the early part of the afternoon on the top of Mount San Primo, at the Rifugio Martina at 1400 meters over the 2 legs of the Como Lake. On the top it was a cold cloudy day, with less than 4° at noon. Winter temperature and weather!

At mid afternoon at Bellagio it was a warm end of Summer day, with thousands of tourists from all the world around the small village and hundreds of ships and sail all around the lake.

After 50 minutes by car we were back in Milan...and we were jumped in the deep Autumn....

Three Seasons in a day!

I like the play of light on the faces of the subjects(not visible to us), but the contours say all what you feel to express.
The frame in the frame and you have captured a lazy afternoon scene.

ciao ragazzo... the natural frame of the trees looks cool around these people having a chit chat on the bench... they look a bit too red may be but still a very moody shot... all the best to you and your family, man...

korkut;)

Ciao PAolo,
Ottima la silhouette delle persone che si godono il panorama sulla banchina, ne ho una di similea Venezia, http://it.trekearth.com/viewphotos.php?l=8&p=788311 , solo per fare il pignolo trovo un pò troppo saturati i rossi.
Ciao
