Photographer’s Note

Daily life moment in Bellagio, Lake of Como.
Mid February, deep winter in whole Italy, meters of snow on the Alps, excepth on the Lake district, 35 kilometers North of Milano.

People (and us with them) took an "aperitivo"(*) at the sunset time, sitted on an open air bar, looking the sun going down in the lake.
Warm wind, warm temperature, with the top of the peaks on the lake shores covered by the snow at over 2.000.


(*)
In Italian cuisine the aperitivo is very popular, especially in the north of Italy.
Milan prides itself as "capital of the aperitif".
In Milan and closest cities, the offering made with great as an elaborate buffet including hot dishes, pizza and pasta; the aperitif is becoming an attraction in itself as many more bars aggressively compete for the "aperitivo" crowd.
