Somewhere... Photo

Photographer’s Note

That image is dedicated to Thierry. Maybe the paradise is a beautiful palce with fresh air, blue sea and sky.

_________________________________________________

There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere
There's a time for us
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to learn
Time to care
Someday, somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere
There's a place for us
A time and a place for us
Hold my hand and we're half way there
Hold my hand
And I'll take you there
Somehow
Someday, somewhere

Ciao PAolo, si riconosce subito dallo stile una tua immagine..
Questa la trovo davvero bella e con una composizione superba...la piccola isola decentrata è esattamente dove deve essere inafatti nella composizione secondo me..
E poi i colori....cielo e mare sono una cosa sola...
Bellissima.
Ciao!

Ciao Paolo,
un'immagine che fa sognare, sarà per il cielo o forse anche per il mare con il sole, un luogo lontano... Buona composizione ad enfatizzare il gioco delle nuvole.
Buon weekend.

Hello Paolo! The more I look at your photo the more I think ... wow. I opened it because of the clouds. I am getting boring with my clouds but ... who cares. Again this shows that keeping things minimal, it turns out maximum. Super nice really, also the special blue tone of the sea.

Have a great night. Barbara.
