Tango, a photo from South Australia, West

Photographer's Note

On our way to Kangaroo Island recently we stayed in a tiny 19th century worker's cottage in a laneway in central Adelaide. The owners have a thing about tango and have decorated and named the cottage to fit with the theme. One side of the back yard had been lined with corrugated iron and painted with suitable tango colours, apainting and even some washing (permanently there) to try to capture the spirit of the laneways of Buenos Aires.
Incidently the cottage was a great one to stay in for a few days.

Hello Ian,

this is a colorful image, I like the big leaves of the plant and the colors of the facade, I wouldn't say it is Australia...

Best regards,

Sergio

ciao Ian,

it really reminds me of El Caminito de Buenos Aires (that I just had the chance to visit...)
the painted tango dancers make the whole even more real...

ciao
